Nice take!
A couple of comments which come to mind: The sound was a bit harsh to me, I would prefer a bit warmer tone with this lesson. Some bends were slightly sharp as far as I could judge and your vibrato can be improved as it is currently quite shaky, instead of smooth and stable (do it more from the whrist). -------------------- "Don't practice until you get it right.

Very nicely played!
I'll agree with Roger tho about sound, last bend which was too sharp and vibrato in general, it might be more smooth and not so shaky, all in all you played it very good imo, keep working! -------------------- Youtube

Much better take, much better!!
Still that bend at 0:53 seems to be too sharp and that happens very often when we shift position a lot and play semi tone bend on top strings, just pay more attention on that and try not to over bend it. And vibrato you're getting is much smoother compared to first take but you can work on it further. Here's one hint tho. As you can notice, "regular" vibrato (the one you use as well) is actually made of bends and releases, either upwards or downward, kind of. Vibrato will sound nervous if you play more smaller bends, faster ones. Instead of that try wider bends but just a few of them, 2 or 3, even one wider bend in vibrato will gives better result, just try not to play fast vibrato all the time cause it sound pretty nervous, sometimes we want it to sound that way but it should be done fully on purpose. -------------------- Youtube

There could be many reasons while it still doesn't sound smooth,
wrong execution of vibrato or even bad type of distortion/old strings... Keep practicing, it'll come up after a while, don't worry. -------------------- Youtube

I don't use keyboard for drums, that's too complicated for me,
I simply draw everything from scratch or edit some groove pattern from the library. Here's backing for the lesson you ask. Jumping_Around_Beginner___BT_75_bpm.mp3 ( 1.14MB ) Number of downloads: 204 -------------------- Youtube

There isn't Midi editor in AD at least not the one that I'm aware of it,
I edit it in midi channel editor in Cubase, yes. As for MTP, you should check out guides in MTP board, there is a topic including everything you need to know about it. And regarding your posts, takes, discussions etc, you can open new thread and throw everything in there or simple open new thread for each take that you record, many GMCers do that cause very often you can get lots of feedbacks for single post ( if it's not in instructor's board tho) and it's might be hard to track all posts and replies in single thread. Both ways work fine for me tho, it's up to you. -------------------- Youtube
