Nice picking, Greg. I couldn’t hear the jam track though?

Nice rendition.
Like James said couldn’t hear the backtrack.

AndréM

Nice work!

Very nice.

Some nice picking, Greg! I can only imagine how it would sound if you could really hear the backing track. Pretty good, I think. But even so, you can hear that you’ve come up with a really nice melody.

You followed the changes well hitting those chord tones , as for the recording side of things , maybe experiment with different volume levels for guitar and backing track , getting a decent recording is as hard as trying to play the lesson sometimes
I think it’s a learning curve and all part of the process.

Sounded like some good playing Greg. You’ll figure out the recording process.

Some nice clean playing there, Greg – it just needed a bit more volume on the backing track, that’s all, nothing major!

Many of us record into a DAW of some kind – that way, we can adjust the balance after we’ve played, rather than trying to get it right whilst playing as well. There are some pretty decent – and free – DAWs available for Phones, Tablets and Other devices. Just aks for help on the forum if you need any advice.

Best regards – Mark 👍🎶😎

Cleanly played!

Yes, soundtrack may be little bit louder but great playing anyway.
Lights.

Nicely played Greg. Yes the BT was a bit quiet but it came through on the headphones, so I could hear you hitting the chord tones in the right places.

Don’t be discouraged by the technical hurdles.
It just takes some trial and error to pull all the pieces together. It’s part of the Internet Era Social Media Musical Sharing learning curve we all have to climb. It is a separate skill set from musicianship, as you are no doubt aware.

Nice and relaxed playing, I liked that you kept minimal amount of notes. It looks like you have a nice semi-hollow type of guitar, I like the natural finish.

Before I got the home studio equipment, I set my bookshelf speakers right next to the amp facing in the same direction and cranked the speakers up as high as them would go and just recorded with my phone. The amp will tend to be louder than the backing track so moving the amp as far back as possible or maybe even putting some foam in front of the amp speaker that will cut down on the amp sound and enhance the backing track sound. It’s tough to get it balanced, but it’s possible as long as the amp is dialed back. You just have to do some testing to find the right balance of guitar and backing track volume.

Great job on guitar work. I could still hear that you played in time with it and that’s really good in my book.

Nice work Greg. Clean and solid picking. Plenty of help here to sort out the audio issues. It will all come together for you.

Nice lead and cleanly picked. I could hear you were right in time too despite the quiet backing track.

Hey Greg, your picking is coming along. Good chord tone targeting and your tempo was right with the track. Yeah, the recording thing can be tricky at first, until you find your methodology. But, however you record, keep posting in the challenges. It really gives you a goal to work toward and improves your playing.

Greg, yes some nice clean picking. And some good comments on matching volume to the backing track.
