Hi all,

This is my first recording. Please leave me some comments on how to improve my skills. Oh and if anyone can tell me what song is this that would be great too.

Your playing was spot on!

If really want to nit-pick, maybe the starting wasn't very stable tempo-wise and isn't as clean (some fret noise), but the rest was really good...

Not bad! The notes were plucked pretty evenly in terms of volume dynamics and when the melody comes in, it does sound as if 2 guitars are playing different parts.

Oh, nice tone too... you're playing the CPX right?

Ah i was nervous. I'll try to lose the fret noise. Thanks for the comment.

nicely done...

what guitar u're using again?

it's the Yamaha CPX-8 and thanks for the comment

do your fingers have callouses? usually those causes string noise.
one way to reduce it is to dip fingers in warm water to soften them up.

oh yes, ok i'll deep them in warm water before playing. But wouldn't it be more painful when they're soft??

pain is relative la.
which would you rather have?
a little pain from playing guitar?
or pulling out your fingernails?

*ouch definitely not pulling out my fingernail :S

for me i like the fret noise sound

nice tune thou...i would have been better if there is less staccato note n more legato...keep it up..

don't need to pull out nails. . . just cut deep into the meat. . . lolz

i do that xD

the piano style

nicely played! much better than what i can play on the acoustic
what did you use to record? very clear

I dunno why...... it reminds me of Black Sabbath's Fluff......
Sounds great though......

What did you use to record btw?

yeah the recording was clean and good =D

direct pc? or miked?

nice !

i plug in my guitar to my microcube. Then from the rec out to my laptop's mic input. I used sonicstage mastering studio. I was worried that it might come out not too good the quality i mean. But it came out not too bad eh?

wow... not too bad for a recording on a laptop... i've always thought recording on laptops won't work cause i tried once and i got tons of latency...

oh man bluesilver u made my day nice...the tune keeps ringing in my head now.any lyrics to the song? can sing also n record in too wanna hear..
