GP6: Review Tergesa-gesa

Ok aku baru usha GP6, after updating the whole thing. Yeah, after activating it, it took many hours to update the program.

So far, my verdict is: I FUCKING LOVE IT!!!!

Look, sebelum ni aku punya tab aku tak buat pakai Realistic Sound Engine (RSE). In fact aku tak recommend pon korang playback pakai RSE, because it sucked. And another reason is, kalo korang tak reti configure, nanti pure midi track and RSE tracks tak synchronized.

GP6 punya RSE memang masyuk. Siap ade effect rack sume. Gile ganas la. In fact effect collection untuk RSE ni aku rasa lagi banyak dari effect yang aku pakai untuk gitar betul aku (aku pakai Line6 GearBox). It just sounds so much better. Kalo korang gi website Guitar Pro, cuba dengar demo dia. Sound real gile. And I think in this version, they no longer allow RSE and pure midi to be played simultaneously. You have to pick one. But the thing is RSE baru ni banyak gile instrument ade. So most likely you’ll not need to use your basic midi (Microsoft Wavetable).

Ni aku buat quick one. Try dengar intro Luhur in GP6 punya RSE. Is it awesome or what? That’s what you’ll hear when you playback the tab. Before this kalo aku nak dapat sound synth yang bagus camtu aku kena export to Cakewalk Sonar, and do a few things baru ok.

But because RSE baru ni complex sket, I’m guessing that for my future tabs I’ll have to spend some time tweaking all settings to make it come out just right for each job. But at least the TAB can now resemble the real thing even closer. Lagi satu tak yah aku nak buat backing track mp3 lagi, when you all have GP6 later.

And one problem with this version is that kalo bukak tabs pre-GP6, sound cam cibai. Kena adjust banyak gak la.

 

And if you spend a lot of time writing tabs like me, you’ll appreciate the new capabilities. Here’s one example.

Note yang aku letak arrow tu, before this that wasn’t possible (as far as I know). Note yang kat bawah tu is a second layer. Pakai GP6 satu track boleh tulis 4 layer.

And there are a lot of other things. Last time aku sebut GP5 tak leh tulis note B# for example. Now not only that, double sharp and double flat pon boleh tulis.

Nak marking chord dulu kena buat satu satu unless ko copy paste the whole bar. Now, add the chords to the project library, and click on the bar, click on the particular chord button. So easy.

They also improve the undo/redo history. Sebelum ni dalam 4 actions jek dia record. Now I have no idea, but seems pretty long.

So far, baru sejam lebih aku usha program  ni, I like it a lot. I like that I can make the sheet music look more professional. I like to be able to make my work look as professional as I can, in many things I do. I like that they put so much more, pretty much redesigned the whole thing, and still sell it for the same price. They deserve every penny I paid. I’m glad to be among the first few thousand people from all over the world to buy it.

 

So definitely, tab aku lepas ni suma akan released in GP6 (unless aku jumpe bug yang tak leh diterima la kan). I’m not sure if you guys will have access to GP6 yet, but I’ll try to accomodate as much as I can. Aku rasa once dah tulis pakai GP6, it shouldn’t take too long to duplicate to GP5. We’ll see.

 

Kalo korang nak try GP6 gi website dia, download trial version. Trial version ni dia limit soundbanks dia (that’s why after updating kena download besar gile file). And aku suggest just dengar demo tabs dia since those tabs are configured to be used with GP6.
