Sooner or later it will become one fluid motion. This should at least double the loudness of your tapping. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

And thanks guys for the advise... with your right hand, dampen all the strings that you aren't playing. try playing this on the E string: E-------2h5h9p5p2----- mute the B, G, D, A and E with your right hand. hopefully that should help clean up your sound.
