It was a pleasnt experience for me when i first worked with my Mac G5, but a rude shock when i found out neither powertab editor nor guitar pro have mac compatible versions....

- Is there any link from which i can get Mac versions for these software? If yes..please help..

- Is there a similar guitar tabbing software for mac users? If yes...which one?

- I have downloaded a software (the only one of its sort that i could find) called G7. Its very good. But unlike powertabs, and guitar pro, i cannot find a site where i can download G7 tabs. Guitar pro has mysongbook.com, powertabs have powertabs.net....is there a similar site for G7 tabs? Is the collection of tabs as extensive?

Im sure there are a lotuf mac users who are guitarissts too...how have you guys managed??

Have you looked at Finale Guitar 2003. It's got a demo here:

http://www.macmusic.org/softs/view.php/lang/EN/id/398/

Not sure what files typs it supports, and I can't tell you because my Mac is at home and I'm at work, but it never hurts to download a demo.

Guitar Pro bientot sur Mac !

Hey!
Thanks a million man!
Do inform us as soon as possible when the site is ready and the software is ready for download.

Err...does this support all the drums lines everything ???

Bonjour,
Hâte vers le haut avec votre homme de logiciel. Obtenez-le prêt bientôt, parce que le guitarpro libère une version compatible d'imper, programmé pour le dégagement d'ici l'été 2005 de fin.
Pardonnez toutes les erreurs, je ne peux pas parler français très bien.


Guitar Pro are releasing a mac compatible version scheduled for release by end summer 2005. Well, atleast now i know i wont have to suffer forever! But then again, i have to admit, i found powertabs easier to use. Especially because no annoying messages like "you must register" come.
