MTP Compilation Exercise
Been a little while since I uploaded a lesson onto the boards, as you may know I`ve been working with a great group of guys on the Mentor Training Program, it struck me early on that I could try and do a lesson that incorporated aspects and exercises of Instructor lessons that we`d been looking at and compile it into one compact lesson for the guys to include as part of their practice routines to save a little time allowing them to concentrate on other lessons as well  Hopefully I`ve managed to achieve what I started out to do, this is a perfect place to upload the lesson as hopefully it will benefit anyone else on GMC as well I`ve tried to cut the lesson down into small sections so that you can work easier on each section at a time On to the lesson: Main Video 
Compilation_MTP_vid.mpg ( 23.99MB )
Number of downloads: 412The exercise consists of elements of lessons from Instructors, Gabriel Leopardi`s Judas Priest style lesson, Marcus Siepens Metal rhythm, Muris Varajics alternate thirds and Joe Kataldos tapping lesson, I have changed bits and transposed parts to fit in with what I was doing (E minor btw) The Breaksown: Part 1
Part_1.mpg ( 8.87MB )
Number of downloads: 297E||------------------------|-------------------------| A slight variation on the Judas Priest Style lesson, a simple intro, but concentrate on timing and vibrato Part 2
Part_2.mpg ( 9.96MB )
Number of downloads: 264E||------------------------|-------------------------| A straight repeat of the first pattern with a slightly different ending. Part 3
Part_3.mpg ( 9.54MB )
Number of downloads: 281PM PM PM PM PM PM PM PM PM PM This pattern above is repeated twice. Into a variation (although ver similar) to Marcus Siepens Metal rhythm lesson, palm muting and some pull offs in the middle of the riff are the things to watch out for in this section. Part 4
Part_4.mpg ( 9.55MB )
Number of downloads: 309PM PM PM PM PM PM PM PM This part is played a lot easier if you just down pick only, downpicking will also give more attack on the notes. Part 5
Part_5.mpg ( 10.53MB )
Number of downloads: 218PM PM PM Using an idea from Muris`s lesson that we looked at, I just made a longer slightly more repetetive pattern out of it, palm muting on the first notes gives this pattern more feel, not too tricky more about timing here. Part 6
Part_6.mpg ( 8.03MB )
Number of downloads: 251E||--15----12----14----------|--12----------------------| ANother Muris lesson here (alternate thirds), I`ve kind of chopped the pattern that Muris used in half here, thought it might mix things up a bit. Part 7
Part_7.mpg ( 7.63MB )
Number of downloads: 261E||----------------------|----------------------|----------------------| Some more alternate picking, just a quick scale exercise moved around in different positions on the neck, you could chop it up a little and use pull offs/legato on the way back down as well. Part 8
Part_8.mpg ( 9.45MB )
Number of downloads: 221PM PM first half of ths pattern isnt too difficult, just palm muting on the 12th fret of the D string is important, the second half is a little trickier as you anchor on the 16th fret of the B string with your middle finger and skip on the other notes, I find picking down on the anchor note and picking the changing notes on the upstroke works the best for me in this section. Part 9 Apologies for the vid quality on this video, I had a mishap with my halogen light and had to make do with the available light I had in the room, played appaling on this one too 
Part_9.mpg ( 9.48MB )
Number of downloads: 252T T Probably the hardest part of the whole exercise, all tapped, the pattern itself is very easy, its mainly the timing and moving from string to string that makes this the trickiest part imo, inspired from our tapping assignment looking at Joe Kataldos tapping lessons. Part 10
Part_10.mpg ( 5.09MB )
Number of downloads: 225E||--19p----17p----15----19h----|--17p----15------------------| Finally our last section, this part almost feels like a breather after the tapping section, legato on the first three strings, finishing with alternate picking, this gives the last little run some more clarity and a better finish to the whole piece. Backing tracks

Number of downloads: 29090 BPM
MTP_compilation_backing_80BPM.mp3 ( 2.11MB )
Number of downloads: 30380BPM
MTP_compilation_backing_70BPM.mp3 ( 2.41MB )
Number of downloads: 29570BPM
MTP_compilation_backing_60BPM.mp3 ( 2.83MB )
Number of downloads: 29460BPM Note : I will add some more info to the lesson over the next couple of days. So there we have it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have making it, and you find it of some benefit to your regular practice routines. All the best Chris This post has been edited by Smells: Nov 14 2008, 01:02 AM -------------------- |
