Nice job, Jeanlouis. I’m working on that one too at the moment. It’s a great lesson for adding improv, and yours sounds good. Like you, I started off with my looper, but now it’s become too elaborate, so I’ve switched it to Logic Pro. Nice music studio, by the way.

Jeanlouis,
I enjoyed that. You got the rhythm going well on the looper. It’s difficult I think to get the right tempo on the lead.
Well done!

Very creative playing.
The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete
It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete

Jeanlouis,
Your looper added the drum track on the downbeat of your strum, so it lost that reggae feel. I don’t know how you get that shifted so the drum happens on the downbeat and your strum is on the upbeat.

My Boss RC-300 has a little LED which flashes red on beat one, and green on beats 2, 3, and 4. I just let the drum track run through a couple of cycles while watching it, then jump in on the back beat. Even if you miss the beat a fraction of a second, the RC-300 corrects it to make it perfect. And BTW, there are a couple of reggae drum beats built into it.
