Your recordings sounds pretty pro to me!

So you don't record or play any longer?

I always found the pinkie the hardest. For years I just didn't bother using it, then one day I realised how foolish I had been and worked hard to train it up. After a couple of months it was working well and I haven't looked back!

The ring finger can be hard to control when first starting out though keep practicing and it will fall in line pretty quickly!

CD Changer?? Probably whatever CDs I left in it when I last used it 5 years ago

What do you use now? iPod or another Mp3 player?

Hi Axis

Welcome to the forum.

Do you play the guitar? What music are you into?

For those of you who own your own website you can now benefit from having links in your signature with the nofollow tag removed making them dofollow!

As most website owners will know, dofollow links back to your website will help your prominence in the search engines which will lead to more visitors and more traffic!

Most people do not offer dofollow due to the number of spammers that you get from offering signature links. So to prevent this there are some restrictions.

1. Dofollow links will only apply if the user has more than 5 posts.

2. Only members who have been around for more than 5 days will have the nofollow removed.

3. Links will only remain dofollow for 60 days after the last post you make. Keep posting, your links stay dofollow.

4. Spam posts will be deleted and the user banned without warning.

Any questions, please feel free to ask.

I haven't used any free ones but I did buy a few from Beta Monkey which were pretty good.

I am now happily using EZdrummer for Cubase which I am finding easy to use and they sound pretty good!

you can either upload the image from your computer, or add the URL or the image and it will add it.

So if you see an image on another website right click on it and then either click "save as", save it to your computer and then upload it or you can get the URL, e.g www.link.com/to/url.gif and it will upload it automatically for you!

Hi

I have added a new feature that will now allow the uploading of images to sit within the post.

To do this you will see the link "Add image to post" above each post box.

You did it all right this time apart from you need to only add everything after the .com otherwise it treats it like a link and not a youtube vid.

So I edited your post and removed http://www.youtube.com and left everything else and the vid is up!

I would guess tremolo as in a tremolo bar, or whammy bar.

All of my electric guitars have them but I don't tend to use it too much these days unless I am trying to play some Satriani

The social networking links were from the old version of the forum. I have not gotten around to try and add them here as yet.

Will update you when I have!

Remove the http://www.YouTube.com and leave everything after it and do not have spaces in the closing tags   

It will then work

Does anyone use the modes for their compositions?

I understand the principle of modes, I can understand the different sound you get from each mode but I struggle to understand how I can effectively use them myself in my own playing.

What do you understand about modes and how do they work for you?

Check out this guy

I have not heard anyone get so close with these covers. One minute it is exact Satriani, the next exact Eric Johnson!

Obviously he has spent a whole lot of hours mastering these!

I would love to play this song:

and this is perfect as well:

Yep sure:

So in your example above you take this part of the link you have posted:

/watch?v=9cbdNOYR1AQ

and  place this in between the Youtube tags like this:

[youtube]/watch?v=9cbdNOYR1AQ[/youtube]

Which then gives you this:
