As someone who is starting to learn all this stuff on his own this is extremely helpful! Thank you! I would also be interested in the vocal part too if that’s an idea for the future

best video every

can you share this reaper mixing template? thanks
Yes, I'll put it up for download tonight or tomorrow
That's how David Gilmore wrote his riffs. He called it "scat"
Wow, I had no idea :-).
Something super odd with the UA-cam algorithm.. it's showing me videos with 413 likes (this one now got one more!) - this is the third in a row 😂
Edit: it's probably more likely that UA-cam is just showing me the wrong number of likes😅
Like exactly 413? This one only has 129 though (thanks for the additional one! 🎉), so I'd say it's more likely youtube showing the wrong number...
@@osiris-guitarguess so! anyway really enjoyed the video, it's really informative to see the whole process and your reasoning and choices throughout
I believe UA-cam is showing the wrong amount, I can across similar things with other videos
