I use Audacity (freeware) to slow down and loop playback Anastasio123. There are also now a couple of portable cd and mp3 players that do the same - cost about 100UK Sterling or about 200USD.
For alt picking I've used Steve Morse/Dregs songs (Take it off the top/Cruise Missile/VHT) because I like them and he alt picks... Sweeping - Frank Gambale. Couple of nice things about figuring out a song yourself and tabbing/notating it is you get a much better understanding of the song and not all tabs/transcriptions are accurate or complete. A lot of Allan Holdsworth tabs are neither . Though to be fair to the transcriber I'm not surprised they are v difficult to transcribe (at least for me - part way through trying to transcribe all of Devil Takes the hindmost' arrgh ). Holdsworth is great for difficult stretches, phrasing, legato and so on btw. Also consider tabbing non-guitar based stuff as well - sax is good imo for getting away from playing stock guitar type runs and riffs Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
