Sorry I didn’t submit a question, I was too afraid to ask
As a bedroom guitarist, I can confirm that I am in fact... Stupid.
0:06 keaton is asking the real question right there
Shit if Women don’t like him I think we are all fucked 🤣🤣
@@CEILINGSHOTZfr bruh
2:17 People should really utilize their middle finger a lot more for tapping. That way you can maintain your pick at the ready.
Programing Drums Tip:
If you have access to Guitar Pro, go download a song that you like and make sure the file has the drums tabbed.
Pull up the drum track and analyze how it was made.
Its helped me immensely in understanding how drums are played.
Another point about recording guitar covers/playthroughs that I've seen becoming a bit popular (especially amongst guitarists who have lots of complaints about their authenticity) is having a backing track, playing along to it, but also recording with camera/room mic, or using the guitar signal from the video as another track in the playing. Its actually quite nice hearing the acoustic sound of people playing the guitar mixed in alongside a properly mixed track.
I am going to go one step further. Don't practice until you can play it correctly. Practice until you cannot play it wrong. Practice until you can do it in ONE take. THEN, you are ready to record.
I am from the cassette tape generation. Everything was done live, so you needed to be good enough to do it live. That is what you need to strive to be. Don't allow technology to make you lazy. Practice until you can do it live.
I learned this from playing in orchestra, there's no second chance there
This is why I have no covers right now haha
Amazing video mate, one of your best so far as I think not enough people in the music and guitar scene will cover this stuff that everyone is confused about, hope you do another one or atleast something similar, keep up the good work 😁

Keyan, what would you suggest for the EQ option that you talked about to get rid of the artefacts, Im not talkong pitch shifting a ridiculus 5-6 semitones, something like 2 semitones down if your guitar is tunes to G# and you wanna achieve a crisp recordable drop F# tone!!
Please help!!
Being a bedroom guitarist for too long just brought me a huge problem,recently I started playing in real-life stages without using those plug-ins which I get used to.During my bedroom recordings,l always set my audio interface in a way I can play in low intensity(l put a lot of auto gain on my di).So when it comes to stages,I found that i can't set up my device in my comfort zone which really bothers me. Looking forward to your reply,have a good day😊

You probably need a boost pedal in front of your amp? Or a boost pedal model on your chain in your multifx chain?
@@nunolance23 I do have a boost pedal in my chain,but it just sounds not good as the plugin.
@@Way1-yi1co but what are you using in the live situation? First you have to compare the plugin to whatever multifx pedal you’re using, e.g neural dsp archetype nolly vs a Mooer g150 for example. Listen to both through the same speakers, and match the sounds as best you can (you can use a match EQ from fabfilter pro Q for example) and save the preset in the pedal. Then you have the same tone on both plugin and pedal. If then the pedal does not sound good live, it’s probably because of the different conditions in which you are listening to that tone, mainly a different PA speaker and volume level. Have a look at the fletcher Munson effect
Stupid, and lack of proper education, are not the same thing.
Thanks for answering my question 🫡
Very helpful video for me as an intermediate-ish guitarists who's biggest weakpoint is rhythm and timing. Will watch some drum playthroughs and program some drums to play along to, thanks for the tips.
Great advice man 🤟
im a bedroom guitarist and stupid but was already stupid before becoming a bedroom guitarist 🥴👍
Right there with you buddy! 🫣🥴
Awesome video, thanks for taking the time to help answer these questions.
Don’t crash out Keyan 😂😭
That was really informative thanks!
Nice. I needed this today
Dude, i've played guitar for over 13 years and have always been strictly a alternative picking guy because I couldn't get my legato to sound good and your advice for tapping with the tip of your finger improved my legato sound almost instantly.
Was not expecting my question to show up hahaha how cool 😂
About the finger tapping stuff; use velocity! Bring your fingers down on the fretboard with speed, not force. You'll sound cleaner and strain your fingers less.
Here's a question I've been struggling with. What type of guitar tone is best for tapping? Do you need delay and reverb for tapping to sound it's best or am I just not using the right technique? Thanks!
You don’t need delay or reverb at all, compression and gain surely help but you should be able too hear the notes just fine with a complete clean tone first, and then later use a higher gain tone to make sure you’re muting correctly
Good advices !
this channel is pure gold i learned so much
Dude u crack me up 😂 “relax”
Think you stitched up the picking speed/endurance guy. Anyone who has spent time learning shreddy stuff knows it's about finding the tension sweet spot. Too tense and you'll quickly hit speed limits, too relaxed and you'll have no control. It's like you need just enough tension to keep your wrist muscles in a constant ready state but no more than that.
I bet you're right! And it probably varies from person to person, but I'd wager that the sweetspot is down way, way more relaxed than most people would guess. Probably also depends on what you internally recognize as being in control. Your hands can't be just completely tensionless, but the required tension for staying in control is likely much less than one would expect. You can still have accuracy when quite relaxed, it just comes from a different source than when you're tense.
I managed through multiple music schools with a technique that was ultimately based on forcing, and I kept wondering why I couldn't learn faster stuff properly. I was sort of "making sure the right notes come out". Now I've been putting a lot of focus on exploring the low end of tension while maintaining accuracy. It seems to be working. It's an experiment still, but basically, I sort of throw my hand/fingers to the next position or fret. Directly from one correct position to the next correct position, as fast and as relaxed as I can. It goes badly wrong at first, then it starts working. And when it does, it feels almost effortless. It's an idea I picked up from Timothy Gallwey's book Inner Game of Tennis, which in a nutshell is "don't force it; relax, and then just do it".
I'm gonna explore your idea of 'constant ready state but no more than that'! 🤘
what is your thought process in coming up with riffs like your cover of Dua Lipa's song?
When uploading guitar covers, where can I find the audio file of the original song ?
You can find a youtube video of the original song and put the url of video into a mp3 converter
That drum programming suggestion is a pro tip
Stupid question: can you send me an Amazon link to buy foam to put behind the nut to dampen strings?
So many good tips here
yes im stupid
Yes we are. Ok, time to watch the video
All those questions and not one thought about asking how to write a decent song.
Oh my so that’s how y’all manage the covers, that’s much easier
How do I tell a UA-cam/Bedroom Musician that I recognise the silhouette of the latest Neural DSP Amp, without seeming Acoustic AF?
How to play Marigold without your wrists falling apart?
All jokes aside, that's probably the only Periphery song that i feel like i can't play even with practicing it to a metronome due to the immense pain after playing that intro riff for a second time.
I feel your pain 😂 I'm still working on my endurance on that one haha
I don’t seem to have a problem with marigold do you down pick for the most part? Because I alternate pick the intro
My stupid question is how tf do I get a half decent sounding metal mix when I’m literally using all the same software/pickups/ guitars as everyone else and it’s nowhere near as good.
Then what’s left is being able to play it correctly, i.e decent picking attack, vibrato, bends, etc.. otherwise if you think it’s about the mixing itself, look for some examples where people show exactly mix rundown of a certain cover (in some cases there’s examples with MIDI instruments only, e.g. look for “silent planet midi only”) and see if you can match all parameters in all the tracks and plugins, and find where you’re missing something
Thank you. No questions.
I am now going to start calling it a "trust rod" - we all "trust " that sucker is going to keep our neck straight!
Correlation does not mean causation right? Right? 😅
😢
Do you use in ear monitors for live session? Do you play with the click? What do you place in your mix? Thanks!
Hi Keyan, when you plug your guitar into your interface, do you add interface gain to get a healthy DI signal, or do you leave the interface gain all the way off to emulate the real world?
too broke for a baritone 😄
Not everyone Mimes it buddy
