QUOTE (Deleted @ Sep 14 2014, 04:37 PM)  Here is my take of the verse + chorus file. First half contains a solo, second half is a rhythm part you could use to let somebody playing something epic over it.  [attachment=38824:Solo___Backing.mp3] [attachment=38821:Only_Solo.wav] Video.mp4 Its beautiful! Very nice tone and you really got feeling in this 
-------------------- If it sounds good, it IS good! And if you think its good then there is gonna be someone else in the world that thinks its good:)Wise words from former instructor Marcus Lavendell.

QUOTE (Lester @ Sep 17 2014, 02:38 PM) Hi Gabe! That looks very interesting, I didn't know it existed. Is it Always on wednesdays? because I have athletics training on wednesdays, but from what I understood, I can look up the lesson and notes afterwards? I will try and implement them in the collab! Hi! yes, it's always on wednesdays but you can check the lesson notes, replay the video and we can also use a thread at my personal board to work on the exercises. Just let me know!

But its something like this https://soundcloud.com/thomas-heino/the-soulful-ballad-collab-with That's a very tasty take Nava. I love it. I also enjoyed the tone that you used, what amp or soft are you using? There only one details to mark, pay attention and adjust that fast lick at 00:19.

You, my friend, have evolved A LOT!! Congratulations! |

QUOTE (Rhida @ Sep 20 2014, 07:16 AM) Hey guys! Lot of good things posted here already! I will share my ideas now for the intro and the verse-chorus section where I put a bunch of phrases together with reaper but trying to keep continuity to make a long solo. Hi Rhida! I've just gave you some feedback about Gab's Army and one of the main things to improve on your playing is the pitch/tunning that seems to be a problem with your guitar tuning but also with your bending technique. This is not the first time that this happens so we must to be sure to know what's the problem: - Guitar tuning? - Guitar calibration? - Old strings? - Too much fingers pressure? Please check each of this possibilities and let us know if you can discover the problem. It's very important to get used to check tuning frequently while you practice to be sure that you are training your ear correctly while you play scales, phrases and lessons. So once you find the issue, let's fix it and then get used to check the tuning every 10 minutes (or maybe less), ok? -------------------- My lessons

I'm trying to carve out some time to contribute to this collaboration. The difficulty for me is using my time wisely given I have about 4 songs I have to learn for my next band practice. I spent about 1/2 hour this evening working on a solo idea - I recorded a rough take with my iphone and zoom so I won't forget it for when I go back o record it. I'll record them properly in separate files in my DAW
Here's the idea I'm going for - hope you can hear the guitar - may need headphones. No time to re-record it -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!

Hi Rhida! The improvement is notorious but there is still work to do! The overall pitch is much better in most of the take. The intro section sounds perfect for me. The verse and chorus has good moments and some others that need adjustment.
00:00 to 00:17: I like how you managed phrases and silences now. The melody has rests and that make it cooler to listen. Pitch is ok,. 00:18 to 00:32: This section start with clear ideas but then the melodies become less clear like if your fingers wouldn't be sure of where to go. The last 2 licks are a bit sloppy. The high note at 00:22 sounds out of tune, and the problems seems to be again the guitar. Please check it out. 00:32 to 00:47: The pitch issues are more important in this section. For example, the bends at 00:39 are not there, you are not tight with tuning, and also the note at 00:44 is out of tune. 00:48 to 01:12: There are similar problems on this section. Mostly tuning and definition of the licks. I feel that the composition is cool, but the licks need more practice. Please also be careful with timing. I know that these comments could sound like a lot, but I'm being demanding because I can notice important improvements from take to take, so keep on the hard work!!
