I think this article is excellent, but one small nit: isn't it contradictory to say don't minimize HTML but do minimize SVG? The justification in the HTML case is that "view source is good" and "it's compre

If you (or anyone reading this) can link to any examples of or details about this sort of thing I'd be interested in seeing it. Don't get me wrong - I believe you - I'm just curious about it and would like to learn more.

It doesn't. IANAL but I'm pretty sure that no matter what the contract says an employer's claim on work that an employee does on her own time and with her own equipment and unrelated to the company's IP is not "obvi

Just for future reference for people that come across this thread and would also like a Linux build, there is now a "hidden" and unsupported Linux download available. See https://www.fatpick.com/blog/release-n

Hi royletron, for what it is worth I think the latest version (v1.4.2) now available at https://www.fatpick.com/support/downloads fixes this. I think same updates that fixed the notarization issue may fix this problem

Thanks for the feedback PhaedrusV, and apologies for the issue you encountered. I just tested the Lumineers song you uploaded (meaning that I played your exact import, not that I imported the gp4 file from scratch) and it seems to be workin

Question about the string coloring: Does Rocksmith support guitars with "extra" strings, like 7-string or 8-string guitars? FATpick does, and I'm wondering what they do with respect to string color in that case.

Honestly, though. Did you download this app?

"Yes", in general but "not yet", in practice. FATpick's internal data-format supports color-coding the note "bubbles" to indicate the recommended finger to use to "fret" the note, but the standar

Wait, I'm sorry, that option is hidden by default. You can set the latency manually but first you must got to "Settings" (gear icon) then "General" then toggle "Show advanced options" to on. This will expo

You don't need the GuitarPro software, you need GuitarPro-format files. GuitarPro is a pretty common format for machine-readable sheet music. Most "tab editor" programs can open and save to the GuitarPro file format. TuxGuita

Currently you can import GuitarPro (gp3, gp4, gp5) files directly. You can use free software like TuxGuitar to easily convert other formats to GuitarPro, but for now that's something you would need to do manually before importing into

Just in case this isn't obvious: You can import any GuitarPro file and play it in FATpick.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. I really appreciate it. I've been thinking along the same lines as many of your suggestions, just haven't gotten around to them yet. The color-coding of strings comment is interesting. It&#x27

I appreciate your input. It's worth some thought. Just to be clear FATpick is not strictly a local app. It's more like a fat client - a local app that depends on part on services in the cloud.

Thanks for the feedback. Pitch detection can be tricky and system dependent but when it's not working at all (or missing most of the notes you are playing) the root cause is usually one of a few common problems. The troubleshooting gui

Guitar Pro's list price is more than the likely cost of an annual subscription to FATpick.

There's actually nothing stopping you from importing and playing uke tabs right now.
