What a great guitar players question:
Question: Can Guitar Pro Midi Files Get Played on a Regular/average C.d. Player?
Answer: No. MIDI files are just recordings of key commands, not actual sound. A MIDI sequencer requires a syth module to produce sounds.
This week’s question is as follows:
Question: Hi. I’m a new but aspiring acoustic guitar player. I have a pretty good guitar (Yamaha FG 730S, my first!), but also a bit of a problem… Simply put, if I press down on a string, as soon as I lift my finger from the fretboard the string makes a loud noise – as loud as if I had struck the open string. Surely this isn’t normal? I can’t seem to reduce the noise even if I carefully lift off the string, and it’s worse if I do it quickly. Can any of the guitar pro’s out there give me any tips? Thanks!
Answer: You are not taking your finger off the string properly, you are actually performing a pull off.
Practise just putting your fingers on and off the frets without strumming or picking any strings.
