Lets get started Alejandro!
In your guitar CV I read plenty of cool things. I like the fact that you want to improve technique (alternate picking) but also work on theory harmony, improvisation and become better jazz player. For your 1st assignment I picked some alternate picking exercises that are great for warm up and cover all strings. Here is your 1st assignment : - Record all 5 exercises at tempo you can play without mistakes. - Ideally it would be great to do video recording and put it on Youtube. Then you can embed that video in this thread here. - If these 5 exercises seem like a lot to do, try to do at least 3 of your choice but do them in at least 2 different tempos (60bpm and 80bpm for example). - If this is little work load for you, I suggest you record 5 exercises in 3 different tempos! If you have any questions Alejandro just let me know. I am providing you here PDF files with alternate picking along with fingerings I use for each. Time limit for 1st assignment is one week from today! (12th of September)

Thanks Pedja!
Seems like a very cool assignment! Just have one question... would you prefer I record them with a clean tone or with a distorted tone ? |

hey Pedja,
Is there any tempo in special you would like for me to the exercises? |

I suggest 1st tempo as very easy (total warm up), 2nd tempo for a slight challenge (from 60 until 100bpm) and 3rd tempo from as your maximum tempo.

Hi pedja!
I did an mp3 of the first exercise at 100 BPM please tell me how is it I am new to direct recording so I'm sure the sound will not be good. Anyways here it is. by the way I think there is a bit of latency Cheers, Alejandro ap1.mp3 ( 279.63K ) Number of downloads: 157 This post has been edited by Alejandro osorno: Sep 8 2009, 01:54 AM |
