• Show HN: TuneType – a font that has (guitar) chords embedded as ligatures

  As far as open-source software is concerned, you can use Lilypond [1]. Fully text-based transcription.

  Download TuxGuitar and then download the guitar tab (there's a download link in the middle of the page). TuxGuitar reads GuitarPro files and by default shows the sheet music above the guitar tab. Source: almost 2 years ago
