GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Tapping

Posted by: beebo Feb 22 2007, 07:23 PM

Hey Kris,
Whenever I try to tap on the guitar with the metronome and I get to the high speeds I can't tell if I'm tapping right because I'm not sure that my timing is right w/ the metronome. ( 3 notes ber BEEP) laugh.gif
I also tried tapping 6 notes every beep but I get even more confused because I feel I'm basicaly having the same problem with both. Can you help me or give me hints/tips or anything. And please don't tell me to slow down cause I tried like 20 times and it dosen't getting into the faster speed.


p.s. I can tap at the certain speed on the metronome I want but I can't get the timing down with my metronome. it's not my rthym either because that's one thing I'm pretty good at. Everyting else I practice goes along perfectly w/ the metronome except for tapping and isn't tapping the easiest way to get speed. That's weird for me becasue it's not so far but maybe not if I get help. Thanks for the help biggrin.gif cool.gif

Hello Beebo,

From you question I understand that tapping is working for you at slower speeds - but now you want to know how to get to the higher speeds, well...

I still haven't found any other way to improve than to practice a long time on the speeds you are comfortbale with (not 20 but 2000000 times).

If anyone knows about a better way please let us know! smile.gif
