If you want to take a look at the program's general look before doing a download,
look at these screenshots. As usual, click on a thumbnail to view the full image.
The shots below were taken with KDE2 version of KGuitar.
|
The main window of KGuitar, showing a song loaded. This famous riff is easily
recognized as "Don't Cry" by Gun's'Roses.
|
|
Chord dialog window, showing the Gm7 chord. Note all the available somewhat
easy fingerings (filtered by the "Usual" filter) and other names
for that chord - like Bb6.
|
|
Another possible configuration of editor window. Editor shows "Nothing
Else Matters" acoustic riff. Note the 6:8 measure.
|
|
The track properties dialog, the fret instrument specific part. This one
shows the drop-D bass guitar tuning as tabulature base. Note the string
diameter icons that show the thickest and thinnest string for user's
reference.
|
|
Another chord dialog instance, this time with 7-string traditional guitar
tuning and a decent G13 chord. Clean 13th chords are unavailable without
omissions on a 6-string guitar, but go well on 7-string one. Also note
"european" note names used, i.e. H instead of american
B.

All following screenshots are made with infamous Aqua MacOS X-like
theme named Liquid by mosfet, using KDE 2.2 with anti-aliased
fonts. This one shows simple multitracked song with 3 tracks: guitar,
bass and drum tracks. Guitar track is in the way.
|
|
The same song, but drum track mode. Note the special drum track mode
with abbreviation hints, showing simple drumset: closed hihat, opened
hihat, snare drum and bass drum. Circles mark the places when a
certain drum shall sound, making a simple drum tabulature.
|
|
Automatic bass line generation. We just give it a few chords rhythm...
|
|
... and get a simple, but fully tonal and legal bass line.
|
|
The following screenshots show KGuitar using KDE 3.0.3.
We are editing a traditional: "Greensleaves".
|
|
The same song in the print preview window.
Note that KGuitar generated both classical notation (i.e. notes on staves) and tabulature.
