Sibelius G7
If you’ve been frustrated by the lack of dedicated music software for your instrument, help is at hand. G7 Kontakt Edition is the world’s first program to offer true and complete support for guitars - acoustic, classical and electric.
With G7 it’s easy to compose, arrange or simply write out an existing song and then print it, publish it on the Internet and burn it to CD using the new Kontakt sample library from Native Instruments.
Of course, songwriters can create additional parts such as keyboards, drums and other instruments. And you can import any MIDI or ASCII tab file into G7 and learn the fingerings from the on-screen fretboard.
Work with MIDI & ASCII tab files
Guitarists have been sharing music in the form of MIDI and ASCII tab files for years now. A quick look on an Internet search engine will reveal thousands of them available for download. G7 provides full support for both file types. When they are opened, the program will intelligently extract all note, chord and rhythm data and accurately convert it to tab*.
View music as tab
Whether you use the fretboard or a MIDI instrument to input your performance, G7 automatically translates the music into tab in real-time. And once a basic melody is in place, it can be perfected with G7's advanced editing facilities which let you add markings such as bends, slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs and harmonics
It's easy to play music directly into G7 using the on-screen fretboard. With its familiar appearance, entering a note is as simple as pointing the cursor over the appropriate note and clicking the mouse. To build up a chord, just click more notes on the fretboard. For even more versatility, the fretboard is completely customisable. Choose between six different neck styles (including three different bass guitars) and enlarge or shrink its size to suit the way you work.
