Keep the electric guitar questions coming! I liked this one:
Question: I really want to learn to play elecric guitar so I went out and bought one of those starter packs for about £200 and I have no idea where to start some people say learn the basic chords others tell me to pick a band I adore get their tabs and just keep playing them till I know them off by heart.
Answer: start with chords to get a feel for the guitar..then do some scales to build up speed and finger strength. then start learning some songs,after that make your own stuff up.
A electric guitar question that should definitely interest you all this week
Question: i just want to make music!!! how do i record from guitar to pc though?? can anyone recommend (links to) a basic drum synthesiser prog which isnt techno-based?? nothing complicated. Do i need a real mixer rather than a virtual one? Help please i’m not v technical.
Answer: Hi! I’ve done a bit of the recording you’re thinking of, myself. I use a program called "Acoustica Mixcraft 2.5" (www.acoustica.com). They also have a program called Beatcraft, which is surprisingly good.
Now, for the actual recording, you’re going to need a preamp for the sound to work in stereo (if not, you can just use mono settings for the sound and it’ll work just fine) then you’ll need a standard 1/4" Patch Cable, and a small 1/4" to (I think) 1/8" adapter (you can pick one up at Radio Shack). Just plug it in and you’re set to go!
Enjoy, have fun, and good luck!
