Wow thank you! Much appreciated 😎

Danke Danieeeel :-)

Ha thank you! I love all the Mario music so this comparison makes me happy 😃 Looking forward to your track then!

Wow thank you so much! I'll definitely try :-) PS prog was definitely an inspiration especially for the solo part!

Oh yeah, I had forgotten about Doom! That was an amazing soundtrack!

Thank you!!!

Also my farts are pretty good :-D

😂​@@TommoGuitar

Thank you :)

Haha yes, random minor chords and b5s everywhere :)

Thank you Chuck!!

Thank youuuu!

Sbadabem :)

Congrats!

Thank you for listening :-)

Thank you! This game's soundtrack is so inspiring :)

Cheers :) Yeah it is (for me)! The first part is tricky to get the phrasing right, while in the second part it's hard to articulate the notes well with legato (especially when using fingers 3,4 with the stretch), and to connect smoothly to the short alternate picking run at the end. Made a tab just in case you are curious about the details :) www.soundslice.com/slices/drbzc/

Thank you! Let me know how it goes if you ever try it!

Same here 😃

Thank you! It was recorded by Victor Concetta: ua-cam.com/video/VBgHjKUZxj0/v-deo.html

Thank you! The tab is quite a bit of extra work (especially the synchronization) but I find it quite satisfying to see the notes passing by as I play them :)

Thank you so much! Yep am still playing (with ups and downs) - now I am mostly trying to write and play my own music 🙂

Haha not 100% sure what it means but I like the way it sounds 😄

​​@@TommoGuitar18: number of likes at the time. Metal Ken's Theme was Sargon's outro music. I used to watch him before he went UKIP-kooky. Can't be wrong: it's really good 😅

@@944play Ha thanks I had no idea :-O

Thank you! Always a good idea to play Zelda 😀😀

Hadouken! 😀

Please tell me you also know what he says when he does the hurricane kick 😀

​​@@TommoGuitar tatsumaki senpukyaku! But when I was kid I just thought it was a very Japanese way to say Hurricane Kick since that was what was in my manual lol But I prefer the hyakuretsukyaku!! Of Chun Li ;)

Thank you :-)

Yeah I love the SNES versions of these tracks! The simpler arrangements really show how strong the compositions were.

Hahaha totally 😀 But what about ATTACKEN (never understood the rest - maybe Strudel? 😁)

@@TommoGuitar Catch Tihs! Rising Dragon!!

Thank you so much!

Thank you Soroosh! Yeah I love Pink Floyd, even though the stuff I play is pretty distant from what they do!

Hey Andrew thank you! In a nutshell, I do the tabs in Guitar Pro, and then export a very long PNG image with the whole tab in one line. I can then set up the right scrolling speed with poster frames in Final Cut Pro. For simplicity I make sure that all bars have the same length (a trick for this is to have a second track that is just full of 8th notes, or 16th notes, or whatever gives you the best spacing). It is indeed a lot of work! An even more detailed discussion is here: forum.troygrady.com/t/learning-how-to-do-on-screen-tabs-with-a-mostly-dsx-solo/61118

Hey thank you so much! Yeah I couldn’t recommend this song more! I love both the melodies and the syncopated rhythm guitar parts. They were fun to learn but also more challenging than I thought!

Absolutely! One of my all time favourite Koji Kondo tracks.

Hey thank you! I guess it depends on your current technique but there’s no reason not to try :) You can use the link in the description to reach the Soundslice tabs, which have many different functions like looping and speed control - very handy for learning a new piece. If it feels too difficult at the moment, I would recommend finding someone who can help you learn the various parts of the song, like a guitar teacher or a more experienced guitarist friend.

Much appreciated :-)

Fair enough! I much prefer the warmer tone after the processing, but of course it’s a matter of taste. I tend to be quite sensitive to “chirpy” sounds, maybe more than the average person, so that may be why you perceived that I removed too much from these resonances. I instead felt like I could have removed some more hehe!

@@TommoGuitar This is way lower high end than most music or even acoustic covers. You aren't mixing in a crowded setting with other instruments, and it does sound really muffled. I thought it was for a bigger mix before checking the description. Could be a hearing problem? Or maybe you're just a fan of that old guitar record sound that has very little clarity in it. I have a friend who listens exclusively to stuff that sounds like it was made on the cheapest recorder from 1960s or something. If you were going for a similar analog record vibe, it worked, it definitely sounds like a guitar recorded in the 80s or 90s, in the nicest way possible

Nah I disagree. Piezo pickups always sounded bad to me and don't even sound like a guitar. It sounds like what a 2007 motorola thinks a guitsr sounds like. The way he was able to eliminate the harshness and craft the sound of an authentic guitar using orocessing is pretty impressive. I agree that the warmer tone lacks some clarity, but I'd take a warmer tone over the piezoelectric sound. On top of that, the sound could probably be eq'd after the fact anyway

Thank you both! I should add that I always preferred the slightly duller tone of a nylon string to the high end “plinkiness” of a steel string, so some of the “dullifying” is intentional :) In that sense it’s true that I am trying to make my guitar sound like something it’s not!

Thank you!!! 🙂

Awesome glad you enjoyed it! I’m nowhere near a pro at mixing, so if I can do anything it must be easy 🤣

That goes without saying! And also if I had a professional sound-proofed studio with $2000 microphones 😂

Yep, the IR does most of the heavy lifting !

You are right, there is also reverb on the master track. It’s an IR called “going home” that was part of a free library - I have to remember where I got it from and I’ll let you know 😎

Grazie mille :-)

Ha, nice one :D Yeah I love Final Fantasy music too, but never tried it on a guitar! From what I can recall Uematsu uses a huge range of notes (e.g. the amazing arpeggion in the FFVII intro), so it's not super easy to translate. But I'll definitely take a look :)

@@TommoGuitar yes a lot are orchestral, so you might need to team up with the London philharmonic 😁 Melodies of life probably my favorite tune from ff9 which has got a nice albeit brief electric guitar bit.

Thank you David 🙂
