Well, an idea of what key it is in is a good place to start with. I think I'm gonna try modal soloing this time, though I'm really bad when it comes to modes.

im on 56k so i cant dload the track now. im gona join this jam session!

i think ill vote for B.. my noobiness prevents me from even playing sumthing on the C track

Which one is B track?

current choices :
a) Led Zep bitorrent mags' list of backing tracks
b) Pix Metal "Surfing with the alien style"
c) headhunter7 Complex heavy rythm style

ya which one is B track? C is hard though.. i spent some time trying to figure a solo.. n all i know is blue scales.. which is not good =P yes the metal backtrack is in the key of C i think

maybe we can have 2 jams running a the same time .. track B is the one posted by pix - "Surfing with the alien style" .. candownload it from the first post.

it's always complicated with you guys check out the first post of this thread.

everything is in the 1st post... so i guess we have to postpone the start of the jam until we all agree on the track ?

plankton, yes, we can do two jams, or even more, we can split into 3 or 4 teams... i'd like to give a try to track C, just for the fun of it. I might be able to do a 10 seconds solo on that, max

first post is here : http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...dpost&p=6654918

Track B
start --> 0:06 : A1
0:24 --> : A2
0:43 --> : A3
1:01 --> : B1
1:19 --> : C1
1:43 --> : A4
2:01 --> : A5
2:19 --> end : A6

Track C
start --> 0:17 : A1
0:18 --> : B1
0:45 --> : A2
1:12 --> : C1
1:26 --> : B2
1:40 --> : A3
2:07 --> : D1
2:43 --> : C2
2:55 --> end : B3

the codes A, B, C or D correspond to different parts in the song (verse, chorus, break, etc...) .
the number after the letter is a simple increment, for each letter.

*** track B : audio quality of track B is quite poor... one can use up to two slots.

*** track C : some slots can be pretty short on track C, so anyone is welcome to take up more slots than only one !!
what do you think if we let all the slots "A" to one of our shredders ? All slots A would have the exact same "theme solo" and that'd give a great backbone to the track. Since it would requires a lethal technique to make anything sounds "right" at this spot, I'd rather let a "shredder" do it Who's up for it ?

oh goodie shorter slots =D good for me..

CAn I take track C from start to A2 which means 0.46second from start.

I ready to record for this track.

... that means:-

0.00 - 0.45 (Jemi)
0.46 - 1.11 (metalhead)

anyone else to fill in the rest of the slot ...

haha oh my, i had the exact same idea as jemi!! to take up 2 slots and start, but since thats the case, if its possible, could i take the 2 slots on track C from 1.26 - 2.07? If there is however too many ppl participating, then i'll just take the A3 slot.

Metalhead... good luck !! you chose the hardest one

Track C
start --> 0:17 : A1 - JEMI
0:18 --> : B1 - JEMI
0:45 --> : A2 - METALHEAD
1:12 --> : C1 - PIX
1:26 --> : B2 - ZEROLEET
1:40 --> : A3 - ZEROLEET
2:07 --> : D1
2:43 --> : C2
2:55 --> end : B3

I just fill in the slot C1... that'd be enough for me.
Once this track is filled up, other participants can just start a new track from scratch, no problem !

hey guys, i know i might be a bit late to introduce a new backing track, but this backing track may be long enough for everyone to participate!! its a 9min song, and its by one of my idols of guitar, non other than john petrucci himself. The song is from his solo album, suspended animation( i dont mean to promote him or anything but his stuff is simply fabulous) and the song is called Damage Control. Will post up the link when i upload it.
