Gabriel's Video Chat Lesson Notes, Intensive Technique Course |
HEY MAN, I really need your help...
...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?
* Finally I want to tell you a secret. Nah I changed my mind - pm me instead ;)

I would like to get involved in this but coming late to the party and the video chats are in teh middle of my work day here in Southern California, USA so I will have to just use archives if there are any. Thanks, Michael Hi Michael! We save the video chats but I'm not sure if they are available. I'll ask about this and I'll tell you later. By the way, you can ask me everything you need to know to learn this lessons and understand how to work on the exercises. -------------------- My lessons

FRIDAY MAY 18th - VCHAT LESSON NOTES
Hi guys! These are the lesson notes for tomorrow's Vchat session. The topic is "Pentatonic with chromatic notes" I will be showing which notes you can add to the Pentatonic minor scale, why, and show licks using it. I will show you how players like John Petrucci, Steve Morse and Marty Friedman use this concept in their solos.    We will use this backing track and guitar pro file as a starting point, but don't worry if these seems to be so fast. the lesson is for all levels!

QUOTE (Yash @ Jun 1 2012, 10:26 AM) Are we really going to do such fast soloing over such a slow, emotional kinda backing track ? I use a metronome at different tempos and that backing track. The idea is that you play it over the metronome with me, I start with slow note values, and then increase the speed. If the speed is too high you can keep playing at the slower tempo. -------------------- My lessons

FRIDAY AUGUST 17th - VCHAT LESSON NOTES
Hi guys! In this session I will show and give tips to compose a metal song using a multitrack software (Nuendo) and some VSTi. First, I will ask the students online for some suggestions of metal bands that will be used as the inspiration of the track. We will choose one band, analyze their most popular songs and try to create something based on them. This is the first time that I do a session like this one so let's experiment! and please give me all the feedback that could help to make the session cool. You can start suggesting bands here! See you at the Chat Room! EDIT: We chose the band Avenged Sevenfold and after analyzing "Afterlife" and "Nightmare" I composed this riff that would be the verse of the song.

QUOTE (Yash @ Sep 7 2012, 04:43 PM) Megadeth, Bullet For My Valentine. Megadeth can get progressive sometimes. Mustaine's songwriting and arrangement is always awesome, and the riffs always progress, lead one into the other. Will be a really great, and challenging too, maybe.Thanks Yash! Megadeth will be on the poll!
