Hello everybody!! This time we have something extremely special!!!!

As we've done in the past here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfFzYZiB-5I

This time, our founder and guitar hero Kristofer Dahl will jam with you!

The idea is simple. Record yourself doing a quick/spontaneous jam over the backing track. Share the video, only guitar audio and audio mix. I'll record a Jams inspired by each participant take.

Then I'll share a final video with this structure: Participant 1 - Kris Jam - Participant 2 - Kris Jam - Participant 3 - Kris Jam and so...


The backing is based on his recent lesson https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginner-Jam/ and was originally recorded by Guido for this other lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginner-Ballad-Solo/

We'll provide two very short sections. You can jam over one or both of them:


Backing track 1:  Backing_1.mp3 ( 513.52K ) : 255


Suggested Scale

Backing track 2:  Backing_2.mp3 ( 513.52K ) : 210

WHO IS IN?

Great stuff, I'm in

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 6 2019, 08:46 PM

Part 1, tricky with such a short backing but I like a challenge. I hope this is okay I kept a basic tone but I've put the dry file on too in case you want to rev it up a bit

That's right can't wait to jam with you!! 😁

Awesome Phil - can't wait to record a response to this one! I hope to do it tomorrow already!

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 6 2019, 10:00 PM

Glad it's okay Kris

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 7 2019, 12:54 PM

Absolutely stunning phrasing here Phil, I am very proud to have recorded this with you 👌👌👌



Do we have any more takes?

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 7 2019, 01:54 PM

Wow thanks Kris, I haven't had chance to watch the video yet, I'm at work and it's noisy, but can you explain a little bit what it was you liked about my phrasing please? Just so I can build on it in the future.

Cheers buddy.

Phil

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 7 2019, 02:00 PM

Your playing has a clear motif with call and response flavor - and the fact that it works musically is illustrated here as it clearly takes you from point A to point B. There is a sense of evolvement in both pitch and dynamics.

Let me know what you think about it - when you have had a chance to listen to it!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 7 2019, 02:22 PM

Wou!!! That’s so beautiful guys!! Now I want to hear a full collab song featuring both of you!! 🥰

I also think that Phil’s phrasing is very musical and consistent here. I can say that all the hard work that you are doing at the mentoring thead is showing amazing results! Congrats mate! 👏🏻👏🏻

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 7 2019, 04:50 PM

I've recorded my take... I'll be sharing it soon.

Posted by: yoncopin Aug 7 2019, 06:54 PM

I want to make some time to get a take in but want to make it count. Gonna jam on it a bit and see what comes out. Phil!!! That collab turned out really great!

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 7 2019, 08:31 PM

Thanks Brian,

And thanks for the chance to do this Gab and Kris. I have to say it is very sweet and just goes to show it doesn't have to be flash to be beautiful. I'm wondering if this could be a build-up track? Kind of starting mellow like this and then adding progressively "rockier" backings as it builds into a "Stairway to Heaven" finale.

Maybe we could do something like that in the future?

Thanks for doing this, lads, it was great after being on holiday with no guitar for two weeks

Cheers

Phil

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 7 2019, 09:18 PM

It could def evolve into that direction depending on what other takes we get!




Cool Brian would be amazing to get your contribution!



Awesome Gab, I am waiting for it 👊

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 7 2019, 09:46 PM

If I came up with something would I be allowed to submit another take? I can't promise but I may get inspired at any time.

@ Gab - awesome, can't wait to record my responses!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 8 2019, 02:29 PM

Here are my responses to Gab's phrases:



Sounds very good to me, though I think we might have heated things up a bit early - and now we need someone to calm the waters down. Anyone up for it?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 8 2019, 03:10 PM

hahaha that's amazing! It's really cool to jam with you!


And yes, now it's time to slow down guys!! Who is in???

Posted by: onetabmat Aug 8 2019, 07:22 PM

Will have a bash at this

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 8 2019, 07:49 PM

Hi guys,

Wow it is sounding great so far! I'm totally in!! Let me start today, I'll upload whatever feels decent to me.

The only thing, and I know I've asked this before, I've never recorded my guitar through any software. I have a Digitech RP360XP pedal and I know I can use it as an interface, can I use a free software like audacity to record? Is it as easy as uploading the backing track on the software and then create another track for the guitar? Should I use different effects on the recording (delays, reverbs, chorus, etc.)?

Thanks again!

Angel

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 8 2019, 07:55 PM

Have a look at Reaper. There is a learning curve but it's fairly simple. It's free with a delayed startup but so cheap is worth buying a it's just a few guys constantly developing and you get all the updates.

https://www.reaper.fm/

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 8 2019, 08:35 PM

Hi Angel! Yes! You can use Audacity if you already know how it works. If not, I recommend you to download this one: https://www.reaper.fm/

You import the backing track, record your guitar in another track, then export two mixes: One that includes guitar and backing, and other with your guitar only.

Is it clear?





hehehe I didn't see your post! +1 to Reaper!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 9 2019, 07:08 AM

Yes to all of these

One thing to notice, if you send me your guitar track with effects I won't be able to make it sound pro. So best/easiest is probably just to record without effects.

Also I need your guitar track alone in an audio file (where the backing can't be heard), it should start from point 0 ( in other words be exactly as long as the backing tracks Gab uploaded).

Looking forward to your takes!



Awesome bro, looking forward to it!

Posted by: MisterM Aug 9 2019, 06:11 PM

Amazing collab, great playing all - the question answer is very rewarding

let me few time, I feel an idea.

I should try tomorrow

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 9 2019, 06:52 PM

Great to see this one growing!! Looking forward your takes!

Posted by: MisterM Aug 9 2019, 08:24 PM

I told you that I would be there for the next one

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 9 2019, 09:03 PM

Thank you Kris, Phil and Gab for your incredible answers!


I downloaded Reaper and I think I got at least the basics from the software. Based on what you said, I'm uploading 3 files which belong to Backing 1 (I'm working on the solo for backing 2 but I want to know if I did it right with backing one before going ahead with the second one): 1) Backing track plus guitar with effects, 2) Only guitar with effects, 3) Only guitar without effects.

 leo_Backing_1.mp3 ( 901.02K ) : 53


 leo_Backing_1_only_guitar_w_fx.mp3 ( 901.02K ) : 56


 leo_Backing_1_only_guitar_no_fx.mp3 ( 897.96K ) : 61


I thought of this solo as an answer to the last Kris & Gab video, I hope it works and also it could work as a "slow down" after those incredible runs from you 2


Regarding the file 3) Only guitar without effects I have some questions:
1. What I did was to turn off every effect (delay, compressor, distortion, reverb, etc.) including the amp simulator and equalizer, so the final result is a clean sound, is this right?
2. To be honest, is the first time in a while that I play bends and slides without any distortion... what if I want to include a pick slide or slide in with my fingers to start the solo, the distortion is a point of reference, if I do it without distortion should you be able to make it sound heavy and distorted? I don't know if my question makes sense.

Here is the youtube video for part 1:



Thanks again!

Looking forward for your answers!

Angel.

Here's my second attempt. Trying to bring it back down again. Apologies for the duster on the keyboard

Edit: Sorry but I expected this to come in after the Kris/Gab slot, while I was creating my post Leo posted his. Not a problem, just clarifying in case you wondered what I mean about bringing it down

I don't know if this is still open or if I have the kind of restraint needed to play something like this But what the heck! Sound fun

Todd

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 10 2019, 09:39 AM

It's still open Todd, go for it
Leo your takes are great buddy, I particularly like that little tapped luck at the end of part 2

Posted by: MisterM Aug 10 2019, 11:22 AM

Leo, very nice take

Also, "call & response" with Phil and Gab sound really great
This collab is wonderfull and call a lot a people.

Very Good Idea Gab


Here mine, I should try to improve precision .. I can make better on some licks.

Yes and no , I had trouble using my rp 500 as an interface , so I got one of these
, for forty bucks

Posted by: jstcrsn Aug 10 2019, 10:30 PM

I challenge you to play as few notes as possible

Posted by: Todd Simpson Aug 11 2019, 02:22 AM

I tried playing with only one arm, but that just let to a series of shred quick licks played with only the left harm. Then I tried taping two out of four fingers down to my hand. That resulted in some very interesting shred licks with only two fingers from one hand and no pick. Next I"m going to tight my right arm behind my back, and tape every finger but one down on my left hand and only use the left hand. All bending, etc. will be with one finger. That should do it.

Posted by: jstcrsn Aug 11 2019, 03:42 AM

okay...okay...okay .. you can only fret with knuckles

Posted by: Todd Simpson Aug 11 2019, 06:48 AM

I tried that!! It was awful. So I taped my thumb and four fingers on my left hand, and then strapped my right hand the neck as a fret scrunchy. So it's just the one finger with no way to anchor it to the neck. Im finding it quite a challenge!!!! I would suggest it to anyone looking for a new way to play that requires some new thinking as none of the regular licks work.

Todd

Wonderful takes guys!

Very inspiring.

My turn now

Fantastic work guys, this is turning out amazingly cool!! Here the responses from Leo to Onetabmat:

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 11 2019, 07:40 PM

That's great Kris, how about posting the video from YouTude with the student footage too

Thank you for giving us the chance to jam with you buddy

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 11 2019, 10:38 PM

Hi mate, not sure what you mean - this one has the student footage?

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 12 2019, 06:29 AM

Hello buddy,

That video just shows you, we can hear the students playing but while they're playing we see you fiddling with you guitar while you wait to play, I think this is the one you put on Facebook, the other one on YouTube show the video footage of the students.

Cheers

Posted by: MisterM Aug 12 2019, 07:21 AM

Hi Kris

Thank you for response, it's beautifull

Can you change my audio track for wet track.
I uploaded 2 track with a wrong name, I correct it

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 12 2019, 07:35 AM

Ouchie, that's what happens when you upload in a hurry 😩 Thanks a million for letting me know. Let's try it one more time - here are all my responses to Leo, Phil, MisterM, Rids & Onetabmat:





I accidentally uploaded the raw file with wrong audio 😅 - all should be good now!

Posted by: MisterM Aug 12 2019, 07:53 AM

No Kris it's me - I uploaded with bad name. I corrected it on 1rst post
The track is again "dry"
Can you mix with wet track

Beautifull video

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 12 2019, 02:02 PM

Hi Kris,

Thank you for your awesome video and the time you put to answer to every video we uploaded. Is great to see my face for the first time on a GMC video

However, -and you know this is the first time I record my guitar using a software-, I was expecting somehow to hear the audio files I uploaded, named "leo_Backing 1_only guitar w fx and leo_Backing 2_only guitar w fx", I guess that's the same thing MisterM calls "wet" audio. Maybe is my mistake, probably I used way too distortion and that's why you used the two "dry" files (named "Only guitar no fx").

The thing with those 2 -dry- files is that I turned off every single effect and it was difficult for me to identify my mistakes, and now that you mixed and uploaded the video I feel that some notes doesn't sound good and specially the bendings sound kinda out of tune. I hope I'm being clear with my point, you know I'm here to learn.

Thanks!

Angel.



Hi MisterM,

I don't have experience with recordings and I wanted to ask you: could you please explain me what does "wet" and "dry" audio means? What's the difference between the 2 of them? Do you have to record 2 different audios or you record just once and when rendering or exporting the audio you kind of unable or disable the effects? Hope I'm being clear.

Thanks!

Angel.

Posted by: MisterM Aug 12 2019, 03:03 PM

Hello Léo

Wet : 1 track with preset
Dry : 1 track without preset
It's just an export issue without modulation amp


I do this so that the instructors modify the track if they wish.
If you record with amp+cab you can't upload "Dry track"

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 12 2019, 06:37 PM

@ Leo -

Thanks for asking - I agree a clarification is in place:

The file I need from you should include your amp sound, but no reverb / delay. This is the "dry" file.

However if you send me the unprocessed direct signal (without even the amp sim) - I will need to use amp sim on my end. And this could end up sounding very different than what you had in mind.

There is no need to resend me any files now, but it's a good rule to remember for coming takes/collabs.

I can insert this in coming mixes. However best results would probably be if your dry files had your amp tone but without any reverb/delay, I would then use these.



Definitely go for it Todd! 👍

Posted by: MisterM Aug 12 2019, 06:51 PM

Ok Kris,

I will upload wet track without delay

Posted by: Rids Aug 12 2019, 06:53 PM

Thanks Kris.

My "dry" takes were unprocessed also. So thanks for the clarification and thanks Leo for asking!

Posted by: MisterM Aug 12 2019, 07:24 PM

Sorry Kris,
I hope this does not bother you

Posted by: Rids Aug 12 2019, 07:56 PM

So here are my true dry takes.

I understand now what bothered me about my tone in the video.

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 12 2019, 08:13 PM

I had reverb and delay in my takes, sorry Kris. I've always sent wet tracks to collabs and when I remember I send the dry track too.

I'll remember in future.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 12 2019, 10:53 PM

Great MisterM & Rids, these are the files that will give best results while still retaining the main feel of the tone you dialed in.

In some special cases - ie in the case of a very elaborate delay setting - it can be relevant to keep the wet signal. For pro results in this case it is always better to export the wet signal alone on a separate track. However this is too ambitious for our collabs - where it's also important to retain a good work flow in order not to loose momentum/inspiration.

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 13 2019, 03:29 AM

Thanks everyone for your answers. I want to double check I got it clear



For instance, if I have this set of pedals and I need to send you a "dry" file, can I turn on every single pedal (compressor, distortion/overdrive, noise gate, equalizer, chorus/flanger/phaser), plus the amp/cabinet (that's the one on the top of the image, right?), everything except by the delay and reverb? Or a "dry" file should only have the amp/cabinet turned on, and all other pedal/effect should be turned off?

Sorry for being so insistent, just want to do the things in the right way in the future.

Thanks!!

Angel.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 14 2019, 07:13 PM

This is correct, you only need to disable delay and reverb.

Explanation:
If you do leave delay and reverb turned on - it will sound like everybody is playing in different spaces rooms/and it won't really sound like a jam. When disabled, I can add the same reverb and delay to everybody - and it will sound more like we are actually playing together.

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 15 2019, 09:06 PM

Hi Kris,

It totally makes sense now. Thank you for taking the time to answer! I want to ask you if I can upload a new file correcting what I did wrong before (but it implies you need to change the audio I originally sent you ), or if I can participate with another solo for this same jam (leave the one that is already mixed in the video and add another one).

Thanks!

Angel.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 15 2019, 09:18 PM

No problem mate, either one is fine 👍

Anymore takes anybody?! 😁

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 15 2019, 09:32 PM

I might try a third pair at the weekend buddy. I'll see what inspiration hits me

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Aug 16 2019, 02:53 AM

Hi Kris,

Thank you so much! I gave it another shot (to the same solos I did before)... this time I turned on my amp/cabinet and turned off the delay and reverb. The ones named "...with backing" include the backing track as a reference for you. The ones that say "dry" are the ones I want you to upload, please let me know if they are correct.

Here is the final result:

* BACKING 1:

 Backing_1_no_reverb_no_delay_with_backing.mp3 ( 897.96K ) : 44


 Backing_1_no_reverb_no_delay__dry_.mp3 ( 897.96K ) : 44

I will probably try another solo on monday next week!

Thanks again!

I have also started remixing the previous takes with the new dry files, will give you an update when it is presentable!

Posted by: Adam Aug 19 2019, 09:52 PM

I just finished recording. It's just clean sound so the neighbours wouldn't complain too much, so feel free to add slight effects if you see it fittin

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 20 2019, 10:20 AM

Thanks Adam, I am looking forward to testing these files and recording my response to them!!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 22 2019, 12:17 PM

I went for a more chordal approach to responding to your phrases!



Well done, I really like where this is going! 😁

Awesome you dig it Adam! 🙏😁

Here is a new version of the video so you can check the current status of the mix (with the new audio by Leo, MisterM and Rids):




I will also include Leos' new video + take in the coming mix (it's not in this one).

Do we have any more takes? 😊

Posted by: MisterM Aug 28 2019, 10:36 AM

Very Nice Kris

The calling/response with a first phill take is amazing

Sorry, my second track is a new, I don't make a video
It's not synchronised with BT - you mixing it too early

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Aug 28 2019, 11:48 AM

No problem Misterm, this is not the final version. There is still time to send me your video We have not even set a deadline yet!

Posted by: MisterM Aug 29 2019, 05:14 AM

Ok Kris

I'll make a new video in a few days

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 2 2019, 09:52 AM

Any more takes? Since we haven't had much activity I will soon wrap this one up.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 4 2019, 10:35 AM

I will start working on the final mix next week - so if you want to send me some new files/ new takes please do so by latest this weekend (Sunday September 8th).

Posted by: Phil66 Sep 4 2019, 11:58 AM

If I can i will buddy, but I'm really knuckling down with my practise at the moment so I may not get a window of opportunity

Posted by: MisterM Sep 4 2019, 03:18 PM

Hi Kris

I will upload my new file in a few day, this evening if I can

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 5 2019, 08:37 AM

Cool MisterM - looking forward to it!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 9 2019, 08:12 AM

Ok so this one is now officially closed, and I will get back to you with the final results!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 9 2019, 10:47 AM

Hi Leo - as I start mixing I notice this file has the backing track as well - so it is not a 'guitar only' track. Could you send me the right file?

Posted by: LEO89PRIEST Sep 9 2019, 03:52 PM

Hi Kris,

Wow I apologize with you, I don't know what happened! Right now I'm at work and I don't have the possibility to export the right file until I'm at home, I'm sorry. Here in Colombia is 10:00 am and I'll be at home by 6:00 pm, could you please wait for me?

Angel.

Thanks Leo - and those are some very nice melodies!

I took a different approach for my response, as I felt a need to interweave my lines more with yours. So I tried backing them up with some percussive rhythm elements as well as overdubbing/harmonies.

...and here is the final result of this collab 😁 :

Hi Kris

Super collab

However, I am frustrated.
I wrote in a previous post that my track 2 was desynchronized at least 1 sec.

I made 1 new video of the 2 tracks with my gibson and you remixed the old take

Hi Kris

I will upload my new file in a few day, this evening if I can

Edit : Here is a new files

Track 1 : https://ahp.li/7026665d6216d5bc221c.wav

😢But I waited the weekend as promised and never got your new take? Or did you send them via email? I felt I wanted to complete this one not to keep everyone waiting. Has there been some kind of misunderstanding?

edit: Anyway I will use these files and put together a new mix! Watch this space! 😊

New version, to my ears it is an epic collab!! 👌👌👌

Awesome, Kris! It was a joy a to participate And it's more reminiscent of older GMC collaborations. Not that I mind the newer format at all, but I believe people were asking for something along these lines, so it's great to see!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 10 2019, 02:20 PM

That's interesting - I think it's safe to say our collabs have gone through several different eras. We should list them all for fun 😁

Thank you Kris
I sent my new files a few days ago and you answered me on the forum

yes this collab is fantastic
the best phrasing is the ones you play with phil, it’s very melodious

Posted by: Phil66 Sep 10 2019, 06:34 PM

Absolutely brilliant, thanks Kris and well done everyone

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Sep 10 2019, 07:33 PM

Yes that might be the most melodic exchange. I have to say they all go through very different styles of phrasing though - and that's also what keeps it interesting!

Although I used the same sound throughout my takes (just varying amount of distortion) - I tried to work with the pickup selector and tone knobs.

Hi Kris,

Wow I feel so honored you have created a harmony along with my solo, the result is fantastic.

The whole jam is incredible. Great job from all of you guys

Angel.

Excellent stuff!
Good job GMCers!

I like this very much! I think this collab is my favourite so far. Reminds me of Becker's Valley of Fire a lot too! It has a specific "conversation" vibe to it and it's definitely a great thing! I think I liked Gab's part the most but everyone did an AMAZING job, as always!
