I made a recording of the arpeggio lesson #13 in BRYCU: soundcloud.com/joachim-dahl-1/brycu-lesson-13It could be polished more, and the ending is abit weak, but I want to move on... I didnt play along the BRYCU track on this recording - I just used a drum track from Addictive Drums 2. The solo part on the BRYCU was a bit too dominant, and I wanted experiment with Addictive Drums 2. |

I really liked that Joachim! Like you said there were a few missed notes, but you got the emotion across and it was really nice to listen to. Your drums sound great as well, fits the song perfectly. Excellent job overall. Now all you need to do is add some keyboard accompaniment  |

Nice job, Joachim. Very smooth and your timing is spot on. I didn't notice the missed notes and I doubt it would be noticed if you played this in a band. Proper timing will cover little mistakes, but if your timing is off you can play all the right notes and still sound bad.

Joachim,
I like that a lot - beautiful tone, a few minor "blemishes", but good timing - which is what rhythm guitar is all about. Hearing these makes me think how much I enjoyed the BRYCU book. I'm with you, though - I always thought the solo part on all the included recordings was too loud to let you hear the rhythm part. I know it would be that way playing in a band, but for learning rhythm guitar parts, well, you need to be able to hear the rhythm guitar parts clearly. I've always thought that what would be really cool would be if somehow you could have separate tracks for each instrument part in your DAW software so you could adjust the mix to your own heart's content. So if you just want to hear the rhythm guitar part solo, you could do that. Or if you wanted to hear the rhythm guitar and drums only, you could do that. Seems the same tracks could work for those who want to learn the drum parts or the bass part - or anything else included. I guess the real problem with this is that every DAW program uses a proprietary format, so track that work with my Logic software wouldn't work with Audacity or Reaper or any of the many other DAW programs...

Thanks for listening everyone - I reached the point of diminishing returns with this song, and had too many songs in the oven, so I thought I'd wrap this one up. It sounds really easy, but takes quite some practice to get really smooth, keeping with the beat and not missing notes, or so it seems. And the ending was surprisingly difficult for me, going from a whole song of triplet feel to straight quarter notes.

Nice rendition there Joachim, you are about 3 lessons ahead of me in this book, you got me looking forward to having a go at this one now . Thanks Mick. At first this lesson really cramped up my fretting hand, as did the other lessons with lots of barre chords, but I gradually managed to be more relaxed and perhaps apply less pressure with my thumb at the back of the neck, so now I don't seem to wear out me fretting hand quite as quickly. I am looking forward to your renditions as well - it's fun to hear how others approach the lessons. |

There is a technique I used in garage band where you copy the track and invert it basically the eliminate the guitar tract, I found it on the Internet and can't remember all the steps it worked pretty good. |
