Don't know where we'd host it either, soundclick has a maximum of 10mb per file (atleast for me). :(


Hmm... I suppose we could always just send it to anybody who wants a copy via Yousendit...

And the key change - meh! I like awkward key changes, they make music interesting!

Akira, could I ask you a favor?

Could you tab some of your typical legato licks in a guitarpro file and send it my way? At the moment my shred style is pretty limited to Paul Gilbert-ish alt. picking.

That was great, Mark! :cool: I like your playing style a lot. "Just messin'" is pretty good as well.

I really liked it! There was a couple of pitch thingys and the lead could have been a tad louder but other than that it was really good! Keep up the good work. :)

Jolly: I don't have Guitarpro, but I could always send some legato stuff to you in a notepad form so you can put it onto Guitarpro yourself. I could put it in a powertab form, but I think it might be easier to put it in a notepad doc, more room for annotations etc. Get back to me.

oldywiddler: Thanks!! I'm glad I could inspire you! :)

Powertab, notepad, I don't really mind either way.

The delay intrudes a bit on that, makes your playing unclear. I think if you turned off the delay I'd like it quite a bit more, Rsam.

Yeah I'll have to agree with Jolly. The playing sounded great. Just knock down that delay. Whatever you had it set at made it sound really muddy, extra especially when you got to getting fast.

yeah I know.... that's why I said it sucks ;)

Well anyway.... It was late at night.... and other settings on my pedal weren't working for me. So wanted to experiment with alot of Delay.

guess it was a bad Idea :D

Naw....at least you know better for next time.

By the way (if anyone cares), I'm still working on my solo for this. I'm listening to the track constantly, trying to get some cool ideas. I want it to be really weird.
