...the thing is, I need you to start progressing faster then ever, but to achieve that I need your help:
* Don't know where to start? Just pm me and we will sort it out directly, I am online every day.
* Join My Army. Sounds aggressive? It is! We can study anything from the most fearsome picking techniques to bombastic songwriting. A medal of honor awaits the brave. Seriously, this is an opportunity for you to get a personalised learning experience...what are you waiting for?!
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?

Hi Vonhotch!! Welcome to your Gab's Army thread!!
Could you please tell me a bit about you, your musical tastes, influences, strengths and weaknesses? I would need some videos of you playing rhythm and solo guitar, so please post your best material here. If you have some music or ideas of your own, also post them here. Also let me know how you think that I can help you and what are your expectations for our job. You can check the other Army's thread to discover the different modalities of this project. The principles of our Army are: + Improve your technique + Make music and solos + Have fun + Destroy the enemy (hahaha not realy just kidding... ) -------------------- My lessons

Hi Vonhotch! Both takes sound cool but I also think that the first one (the lower) fits better with the track. However I would work a bit more on the EQ of that guitar... Try boosting some high mids and high frequencies and maybe lowering some bass frequencies to make it sound a bit clearer. Compare your guitar sound with bands of this style... you can check The Tormentos.
Your take also have some timing issues in some sections, review that too if you want to have a perfect take! -------------------- My lessons

Ha I love that video. I got a take I think is a little better I played with an eq and also some of the settings on the reverb plugin which seemed to help clear it up some to. Now that I got one I like I think I'm gonna try some other combinations of effects and see if I can get a tone a little clearer yet. http://soundcloud.com/vonhotch/surferc/s-DCHUQ I saw someone mention somewhere in another thread that soundcloud seems to darken a track a little, and I seem to notice that a bit. Do you have any suggestions for maybe a preventative measure my tracks seem a little dark and thick to begin with and they seem to get thicker when uploaded? A little more eqing maybe? Different patches? -------------------- |

Different patches? Cool take mate! I didn't know about that Soundcloud issue. You can add some high frequencies to your track, or maybe use any harmonics exciter to make the take sound brighter if you prefer it. Another trick is adding some EQ to the reverb effect. If you make a cut of the lower frequencies the effect will sounds clearer. I like the new take but I think that it could sound even clearer. -------------------- My lessons
