5 Essential Linux Apps for Guitarists

“1. Tabulature and Notation – TuxGuitar
For many, the first thing you’ll want is a place to write,
store, and play tabs or notation. Many Windows users enjoy PowerTab
and Guitar Pro, each with their own collection of downloadable
tabs. For Linux, we’ve got TuxGuitar. It’s a very
similar program, gives almost all of the same features, and best of
all it’s compatible with Guitar Pro tabs.

“2. Effects Processing – FreqTweak
There are multiple programs for Linux aimed at real-time effects

FreqTweak for this example because it’s fairly simple to set
up and is available in the standard Ubuntu repositories.”
