Full Version: Muted Legato
GMC Forum > Discussion Boards > PRACTICE ROOM

I'm really liking the sound of Muted Legato from which Rick Graham does. Perhaps this would be a great idea for a new GMC Lesson from someone. Or maybe just watch Rick Graham, but I just felt like saying this, because I think this is really cool. Here's a link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk24z5WeXHA

That's really cool! It's a good idea for a GMC lesson so I think that you'll find something soon here.

In the meantime, I think that you can try some of our legato lessons and use the palm of your right hand to get that muted sound.

Rick did say one of his next lessons would be about muted legato, I wonder how much a compressor comes into play with this?

It depends on how strong your left hand fingers are. However, a compressor always helps.

Yes - having a peak in the beginning (attack part) of the sound is super important for this technique. You don't need much strength, but you need fairly precise legato technique.
