QUOTE (leedbreak @ Feb 26 2007, 05:11 PM)  I am using my computer to create the beat, using PC Drummer Yeah, sweeping really sucks ! I find I am making rapid progress with alternate picking, I've sped up 50% in 3 weeks, but sweep picking just stubbornly stays the same. I constantly feel like I am on the edge of a breakthrough but never quite seem to make it. I think its just that sweep picking is 10 times harder than anything else so it will take 10 times as long to get the hang of it ... back to the slavery of the metronome I go, I know its the only way  BTW, you can get a number of neat metronome programs for free or cheap to run on your PC, I use Crystal Metronome, it lets me save beats for different exercises as preferences so you don't have to keep fiddling with the BPM and patterns etc. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

At first when you start sweeping, its so fu**ing annyoing!! believe me I feel the same as you! but then I practiced 1 whole day, from I woke up till night, only on the 3 string shapes and now I play it 100 bpm pretty clean aswell. I still cant move around much with the 5 string shapes, but just have to practice more
 practice, practice, practice and practice, thats the only way good luck  QUOTE (Eat-Sleep-andJam @ Feb 26 2007, 11:05 PM) Yeah ill try that. I need a new metronome. Lost my other one some how .
