I have a question a about chords.
If you are going to play for example sus4 chord. Should you learn it in all CAGED shapes? Cause with these chords, I only use E and A shape |

Hi mate. Suspended chords are those ones that replace the third by the second or forth. The most used positions are the ones that you already know A and E shapes, because the cooler sound of this chords is gotten when you have the suspended note in the higher strings. However you can convert to suspended every triad and every position and inversion.

Hi mate! It's evolving really good. The only comment that I have to do is that you should pay attention to your timing, both in rhythm and melodies. I know that this is a demo but it would be very useful if you get used to record everything played tight and groovy.
Keep on the good job! -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate, yeah, you are right, the change is not smooth and it sounds like too slow when it goes to 6/8. Why don't you experiment with the tempo of the new part. Maybe using a faster tempo the change will be cooler.

QUOTE (ElHombre @ Jul 22 2013, 05:56 PM) Yes I was thinking of that but didnt know how to have different tempos in the DAW, but it was a google search away ^^ 190 bpm on 4/4 and 150 bpm on 6/8 melted good togheter. I dont know how to say, but it feels like its the same tempo when its not Only problem is now I got to practice that tapping chorus a lot haha haha excellent! Sometimes it's important to make tempo changes, even more when the groove changes like that. Can I listen to it? -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (ElHombre @ Aug 22 2013, 06:31 AM) Hey Gab Do you have any good way of praticing chords, inversions and maybe progessions? Easy as advanced I need to go trhough my chord register since i will be working with a lot of other muscicans i am new with Hi mate. I have a book that is my bible of chords. I check it very frequently, every time that I want to incorporate new chord shapes to my vocabulary. It's called "Chord Chemistry". Do you know it? -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (ElHombre @ Nov 14 2013, 10:33 PM) Hey Gab I have a question regarding pratice. Do you think I could instead learn complicated solos with different techniques, right now for example I study the solos of Born Of osiris, and I think you learn a lot from that first listen than learn. I think that is a much better way then doing these book regular exercises. Hi mate, yes! This can really works if you are disciplined and work on the parts until you master them. Sometimes you have to create variations or loops of the trickier parts to focus on them and be able to play them perfect. Have you seen this thread? LINK The good side about building a routine like the ones that I offer in my army is that I share mostly GMC lesson, most of them are musical ideas, and I create a schedule that covers all the techniques I consider important. If you work diary on this techniques, you will be mastering each of them and training your playing to be able to play whatever you imagine or hear without technique limits. -------------------- My lessons
