From first riff
to finished arrangement.

Capture ideas, write guitar and bass parts, build multitrack songs and explore arrangements in an editor designed around the way musicians actually work.

  1. 01

    Reuse your best ideas

    Turn a passage into a named Riff Block like “Main Riff”, “Chorus” or “Fill A”, then place it wherever the song needs it. Edit once to update every linked copy, or let one copy go its own way.

  2. 02

    Write every part

    Guitar and bass parts in tablature, with standard notation alongside.

  3. 03

    Build the song

    Stack parts into multitrack arrangements and hear how ideas work together.

  4. 04

    Bring your tabs

    Open your Guitar Pro files and work with MIDI, then carry on writing.

How the licence and free trial work

Questions

Good questions.

Something else on your mind? Get in touch.

Is SixLine free?

SixLine is a paid app with a fully featured, time-limited free trial, so you can try everything before you buy.

SixLine is still in development and is not available to download or buy yet.

What does a lifetime licence include?

A single one-time purchase — planned at $9.99 USD during the public beta — gives you SixLine and every future update, including major versions.

There is no subscription and no paid upgrade.

Are future updates free?

Yes. Every purchase is intended to include all future updates, including major versions such as v1.0 and beyond.

Is SixLine a DAW?

No. SixLine is a tablature and notation editor for writing, arranging and practising music. It plays back what you’ve written so you can hear and learn it, but it isn’t built for recording or producing audio.

Is SixLine available on Windows and macOS?

SixLine is being built for both Windows and macOS. System requirements will be published with the first public build.

Can I import Guitar Pro files?

Yes, SixLine can import Guitar Pro files. The exact list of supported Guitar Pro versions will be confirmed before the public beta.

What does beta mean?

Beta means SixLine is usable and actively improving, but not yet finished. You may run into bugs or missing features, and things will change between releases.

Known beta limitations will be published alongside each release.

Will SixLine ever need a subscription?

No. The desktop software you buy is yours to keep, with every future update included.

If optional hosted services are ever offered, they would be separate and clearly priced on their own — never required to keep using the software you own.

Will I have to pay again at v1.0?

No. Beta customers keep their lifetime entitlement when v1.0 arrives. The price for new customers is planned to rise to $19.99 USD at v1.0.

What happens when my trial ends?

The trial length and exactly what happens when it ends will be published before the public beta, so you know the terms before you download.

Why SixLine

Built for musicians who’d rather make music.

SixLine grew from a simple frustration: writing and practising music should feel direct, fast and enjoyable. The software should support the musician, not become the project itself.

So it stays focused: an editor rather than a studio, a fair one-time price rather than a subscription, and a focus on the features musicians actually need.

Write the song you keep hearing.

Write it, then master it. SixLine is coming to Windows and macOS — try it free, buy it once, and keep every update that follows.
