Hi Monica,

New lesson... first take...

I have been practising this lesson for 2 weeks now. Today I made the first recording and it hits me immediately when I see myself playing. I believed during practise, I made small movements with my fingers. And when I see myself play... it's the opposite rolleyes.gif

So that's already something to work on. I did the whole lesson in this first take. And I already know you're going to say I have to break it into pieces laugh.gif

But I just like to do the full lesson, so in one month from now, I can look back and see the progression.

So here it is...



Analysis:
I think there a good difference between muted and not muted.
11: missed a note
26: bad note
1.23: missed the note and vibrato
1.27: screwed this up
1.30: missed this note
2.16: missed this vibrato
2.21: tapping needs more work
2.27: missed a note

1.18-1.35: this part definately needs more work

Question:
1.21: Darius makes the vibrato with 2 fingers
1.28: Darius only uses one finger (see video 5 around 1.15)
1.33: Darius also uses one finger (see video 5 around 1.19)
Where he uses one finger, he does not tough the botton of the fretboard and kind of makes the vibrato with a loose finger. To me it does not look like the correct technique for vibrato, right?

Don't worry if I get feedback AFTER this weekend biggrin.gif wink.gif

Good afternoon!

I have practiced a few days more and have (tried to) fix the remaining issues from the previous take!

It was intense to record this take but I'm very proud and satisfied with this result smile.gif

Here's the 4th REC attempt of this though alternate picking lesson:



Let me know if there're issues left to fix or I can put this take into REC...

BTW... I want to finish it before 25th... not 27th laugh.gif


Cheers,
Gert

Hi Gert!

From what I see, you fixed the mistakes and I think this is the best recording that you have made for this lesson. smile.gif

Apart from 1-2 spots where you rush a little and a blocked note at 0:26, I don't see critical mistakes.
Your vibrato is better than last time, but still need more work until you will be able to manage this at a faster tempo. Don't worry, this will come with time and practice.

Congrats on this take. Your progress is amazing and I'm very proud of you!!! smile.gif

It's time to say goodbye to this lesson. You can post this take in REC. biggrin.gif

Hahaha...we succeeded in ending this before 25 March. laugh.gif

Have a great day!
