IS THAT YOUR MAMA?
Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

I'm down for that one! I'm in the process of selling my pride and joy ESP so hopefully when I do sell it and I get a new guitar I'll be able to submit a REC take.

Here it is!
I'll be doing a REC take later. http://soundcloud.com/trey-deschamp/neocalssical-solo-for-2 Tell me what you think. It's the best that I could do. This post has been edited by TreyDeschamp: Aug 28 2012, 09:04 PM |

QUOTE (TreyDeschamp @ Aug 29 2012, 11:37 AM)  For sure! Before I saw this I ended up throwing it up on the REC. The only problems that everyone has seen so far is my vibrato which is something I've already known that I need to work on. I'm to comfortable with using one finger and it doesn't sound as fluid or strong. I'm planning on getting an ESP EC-1000 deluxe. I need something without a floyd rose. I need to be able to tune down and my floyd rose doesn't allow me to do this. A fixed bridge will always do justice  I promised myself not to get floyd rose guitars ever  Anyway, working on your vibrato should be a constant pursuit and thus, I was thinking we should start that too - what do you think? This one would be great to begin with: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bens-Vibrato-Odyssey/ Cosmin |

I think it's my settings in garageband although I know nothing about tampering with settings/mixing other than adjusting my amp. |

It's a bit difficult to keep track of everyone's progress sometimes

QUOTE (Cosmin Lupu @ Aug 30 2012, 09:16 AM) Right away  I forgot to grade Good stuff! Here is the clip so you can hear the cutoff. http://soundcloud.com/trey-deschamp/bens-vibrato-odyssey-1-demo-1 I have no clue how to change it. Some takes are better give or take but here is a quick example of what I'm talking about. |

I got it Trey, the premises are good - that means that you start in the right way, but since the cutoff is coming into play, I can't say if you finish the vibrato in a nice even sustained way. This is the only thing that I wanted to add, be more consistent with the vibrato - I can feel that even if the cutoff wouldn't've been there, the note could've used more sustain from the vibrato. What say you?Cosmin QUOTE (TreyDeschamp @ Aug 30 2012, 06:34 PM) Well, I decided to go ahead and try and record it through my webcam so there is no soundcloud clip to go with it. The audio may not be so great but I'll be uploading it to the REC program. I've got a nice handle on the vibrato from that. Question, could you possible explain to me the scales that are being used in the lessons you refer to me as well as how they apply? I'd like to not only learn to play the lesson but learn to understand the lesson itself. Like why the scale is being used and how I could apply what I'm learning to my playing. Great! I'll be on it once you put it up Sure thing! I find it VERY important to be able to extract a concept and use it in your own playing later on. First things first, we will tackle the theoretical aspects of each scale and I will ask you questions then, extrapolated from those How does that sound? In this way, I will make sure that you have understood what's going on behind the playing and that you can apply those concepts in your playing - at least theoretically. Understanding a theoretical aspect does not consequentially lead to using that concept immediately - inspiration has to kick in at some point and for that, you need to help your subconscious mind by listening to A LOT of music containing that specific element you are aiming for Please let me know if there's any particular lesson on which you'd like to start this procedure Cosmin |

I think sticking to the Killswitch Lesson would be good!
