Yea, my example was only 1 tap and Oziel's was a couple double taps. Oziel used his middle finger to tap as the pick was naturally lifted out of the way. I had my guitar in front of me when I typed both these posts and I just tried the sweep taps and did double tapping (after a simple 5 string arp) like Oziel did, I did ok untill the way back down. I do pretty well with tapping and my sweeping is getting there, just a matter of practice and persistance. When I first tried sweeping, I was like, this sounds like crap, but I kept playin the arp until I slowly built up speed (which took a good month), then as I got faster it was like ear candy.

But yea, I love sweep taps too (which I geuss is the right term,) It adds alot to an already great sounding arp... as long as Herman Li isn't playing. :p
