编鼓或bass

最近因为在做andy timmons- super 70's 的backing track,发现自己对编鼓的要求变高了一些。鼓手的dynamic, ghost note, 也在尝试编进去。

其实很多人说midi的声音很假,很像midi,大概有70%是因为自己编得很像midi,编出不象真正的鼓手会玩的东西。

了解真正的鼓手会做些什么很重要。象以下的片段都可以做很好的参考。

Improvise(即兴演奏)的方法

Improvise时嘛。了解mode很重要,以前虽然我知道mode是什么,做曲的时候也有在用,但是效率很低。通常我要听个几遍,随着音乐在吉他上摸索几遍,才能做出一点东西。

最近托一位老师Chris Juergensen 的福,才慢慢在改变自己的想法。

假如Improvise时想玩C lydian
1)那玩C lydian scale准错不了。
2)玩chord tones (C arpeggio)也错不了。

可时如果只用1)or 2)的想法来玩有时会过于单调,不象音乐。

所以一定要在吉他指板上看到scale也有chord tones(arpeggio) 才弹。偶尔掺入学过的lick也会有意外收获。
