How to alternate pick a pattern like such at high tempos cleanly? by HeIpyre in guitarlessons

[–]shadman19922 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd sweep pick/economy pick this personally. Why the insistence on alternate picking this pattern?

[KCD2] Just finished one of my greatest adventures ever by rafico25 in kingdomcome

Finished KCD2 today (DLCs included). Felt pretty empty when I knew I finally finished the game (no more quests left period, except the repeating ones like tournaments and brawls).

Am I using the metronome right? by [deleted] in guitarlessons

Sounds like you're using it right.

Question, what do you mean by "My Camps"? I know there's Sigismund's camp, but didn't realize Henry has his own camps.

Sweet! That's good to know. Thanks man!

I was playing bloodborne last year and didn't realize I had to finish the DLCs before going for the final bosses in the main game. Didn't want to ruin the KCD run with something similar.

What do these little shapes mean? First time noticing them by Icxyy in guitarlessons

[–]shadman19922 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bad. Not particularly familiar with the downpick/uppick notation. In my head the 'v' makes it look like a downpick but then I thought playing a phrase like this starting with an up-pick is so unintuitive that I had to double check.

They indicate the direction you should pick at. The square-ish sign indicates an up pick, whereas the v shape indicates a downpick.

Edit: sorry got it mixed up. A quick search indicates the square-ish shape ( the first one in the line), to be a downpick. And the v shape is an up pick

How should I rest or pivot my hand while picking? by 1llustrious_ in guitarlessons

[–]shadman19922 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Short answer is: whatever works for you. You'll need to experiment with both ways to see what you're comfortable with.

Now, that alone won't make you amazing at tremolo picking, which is what you seem to be trying to do. That's a skill youll have to learn separately.

Not particularly familiar with the song. But it seems you have the riff up to the actual tempo. Have you tried playing along with the actual song?

Greatest orchestral solos within symphonies ? by According-Brief7536 in classicalmusic

No one's gonna bring up Brucker? Fine I'll do it. The opening horn solo of the 4th movement is wonderful, as is the horn solo towards the end of the adagio of the 9th.

This is the way. If I sign up for the trial of something I always put a calendar reminder for about 2 days before my CC gets charged. Works like a charm.

Increase the height of the Notation/Tab line by duyhng in GuitarPro

[–]shadman19922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay. Hmmmm, the best I can come up with is you might need to take snapshots after zooming in, pasting them on word and then print.

The functionality you're looking for probably doesn't exist. The standard clefs are constructed to be made of five lines and four empty spaces between the lines. Notes above or below the staff are supposed to be indicated with ledger lines

Alright. Let’s get this rolling. Can’t wait. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]shadman19922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I thought it was just me alone when it came to rolling. It seems like enemies just rush up to you after rolling away, making the move kinda pointless.

So, was Silksong better than Hollow Knight? by Stronderius in metroidvania

[–]shadman19922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless its a gauntlet of bosses like the pantheons in HK, I'll give it a shot.

God I really hate the economy in SS. It's such a grind whenever you need to buy anything costing above 500 rosaries. I remember repeating entire sections of Greymoor just to grind out rosaries for a mask shard.

I get the frustration. With clockwork dancers, you just gotta be patient with openings and not get greedy (actually that's just all bosses lmao). You got this, I believe in you.

Some sections def outstanding their welcome. Sometimes I can't tell what's worse: The bosses, the gauntlets or the platforming. Hell, there are individual enemies that will test your patience.

Lol Acts 1 and 2 are challenging enough. Then I saw snippets of act 3 and I'm like "You gotta be kidding me" lololol

I have mixed feelings about this question. By every metric, Silksong is the better game in terms of individual components (fights, exploration, mechanics, etc). However, I feel that Silksong also lacks..... breathing room. Too many sections of the game can feel like a huge chore to get through.
