IS THAT YOUR MAMA?
Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

Enjoy Superior drummer Rocks  .Just tried it the other day after ur lesson. U can modify the beat with endless possibilities. The video lesson really helped , i now have some idea if what beats to put with some tunes.

YESS MASTER COSMIN!! THE DRUMMER CHANGES EVERYTHING, NEVER EVER DOUBT ABOUT IT!
EXAMPLE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O9Sf4P38oE ( " Embedding disabled by request" ) IMAGINE THESE SONG WITH A SIMPLE DRUMMER SWING baby SWING it's all u need My main problem is that as i am not a drummer it's really hard to transmit mi ideas to my drummer, i start to make as an air drummer  and try to make the sound i want with my mouthIt's also very important that your drummer has a hairstyle like Mike Terrana  and one more thing: if you want to have a drummer like Terrana you should play the guitar as good as Smolsky (Rage Guitar player) or be famous like Dav Matthews

Cool topic, Cosmin!
My drum vst is Battery 3, maybe it doesn't look pretty, but it works great

Maybe I can get a few hints here.
My problem is: I've been using EZ drummer for a long time now. Always thought it was quick and easy to use. But recently when I lay down a riff or rhythm with the guitar I'm not satisfied. I think the riff/rhythm and beat don't work along but work against each other. Know what I mean? If I put a suitable drum track first and play the riff/rhythm on top of that I will adapt my playing to the drums and the end result will be something different that I wanted. What I'd like is an ambient drummer that is easier to adapt to the rhythm, not the other way around. Instead of me adapting to EZ drummer. Any ideas? Point is recording guitar and bass is what I want, I don't care so much to edit MIDI files. A simpler drum track would be better then since it's about recording songs for the band. Doesn't have to be perfect, but good enough. -------------------- My bands homepage
