Amateur guitar player here, I feel like sometimes I don't know if my fingers have gotten the concept or if I've just learned a difficult passage by rote.

I'd love to have something that generates the same right hand picking pattern with a different left hand.

Also, I think there are licks that you have to be very precise with fingering or picking pattern. It would be cool to generate those.

For the latter, I’m working on something like this with my app BeatScratch. (Though I’m currently picking it back up and updating to Dart 3 after a hiatus to work on what will be its new backend in place of Reddit…) The notation format is a bit limited but does have a novel way of choosing enharmonics (like F# vs. Gb) to maximize readability. https://beatscratch.io
