First time here

Some improvement on beginner song but intermediate song is too fast for me

Sebastien92 · April 7, 2021

Back in championship. I need to work the velocity.

Sebastien92 · April 7, 2021

A little improvement.

A little more progress on Ride On rhythm guitar. I really want to move this up to 98-99% range, but am getting antsy to play some different songs. I think I'll keep on working on it for a while longer. The song isn't hard, I am just practicing accurate chord changes. It would be good to get simple C to F transitions clean, and to clean up F and G barre chords before moving to more complex pieces.

So, Uptown Funk. How do you practice the last part right before the break. I get the bar part and can see you're supposed to do some goofy chords around the 13th-17th frets, but how do you actually manage to practice that? Even if you slow riff repeater really down, I would always miss some. I just kinda slopped through that part.

I found it is catching all the notes in this section when playing like very fast 3 and hammer on 6. Like fret 6 is played immediately after fret 3.

I am not sure how it is in the song as I did not listen to it without playing

But I quess, that you're supposed to listen while playing. And maybe this is the point where the notes (dots) catch up with the song. Before this point a lot of the notes are wrong (or rather greatly misplaced) and does not follow the sound (changes in chords and so on).

But now I just... like whatever.

PS: The right note played the wrong time, is still a wrong note.

When I play in an orchestra (classical), we have a saying: Nothing is so difficult, that it can't be faked.

you are 100% right...

unfortunately this competition is not to "play the song as you here it correctly" but more like "play the best whatever you can see on the screen"

sometimes i am very surpriced how the song sounds when i listen to it on spotify after playing it in RS...

Class 1st...

This was soo easy... I could do even better if I would have time to master switching between phrases...

I don't want to be advanced to higher class though as I know this is exception as this lead was more like 3.5 rhythm for me

As I said before... this one is more like lead for me... cannot make any better..

For this one I cannot do any better either... up to like 3/4 of the track I had like 99%... and then BOOM!!!! lucky hit and miss .. I have played it few more times after that, tried riff repeater, but 3rd try was the best no matter what
