Using Guitar Pro

Configure the Sound

Guitar Pro proposes two different technologies usuable simultaneously to play the score: MIDI and RSE.

RSE Sound:

RSE [Realistic Sound Engine] is an audio technology unique to Guitar Pro, which uses genuine guitar, bass and drum

samples. The result is an ultra realistic playback. RSE can be activated or disactivated using Sound > Use RSE [F2]

menu.

The instrument sound can be selected using the Track > Instrument [F6] menu or by clicking on the instrument name

in the mix table. One or several sound bank and effect are proposed for each midi sound.

consist of messages describing the score very precisely: notes, rhythm, instruments, .... The quality of the

sound depends of the sound card.
