[DonQuixotec]

@SorLoveBow Aw thanks man!

[drneme]

GREAT SONG AND YOU PLAYED IT VERY WELL!!!

[PARAekbolMORE]

this is great! I love your guitar playing so much!

[DonQuixotec]

@PARAekbolMORE Really? Thanks :)

[PARAekbolMORE]

@DonQuixotec Yes really:) and you've chosen a great song!

[9lontoonieful1]

Nice sound! I welcome your opinion on my brother's song. Farewell Blues.

[DonQuixotec]

@9lontoonieful1 It was cool , but he should film himself playing it. It's kinda boring to watch a black screen. But the playing was excellent.

[Decadence01]

beautiful fret board :)

[AlucardDraculaFTW]

Great cover!

[rockstar0337]

How do you get the backing track to sound good on the video like that. The guitar amp is going to souondcard? How do you do that? I'm 14 and I play a lot but have trouble getting this kind of quality sound on my videos. Please help

[DonQuixotec]

@rockstar0337 One guitar cable is going from "recording out" on the amp into "line in" on the soundcard. The backing track is just added to the recording program, so when I save the file both my guitar and the recording gets saved. My recording program is Kristal, it's easy to figure out how to use it. And you need an amp with recording out feature.

[rockstar0337]

@DonQuixotec thank you i'll try it out i dont think i have the right amp though

[warrencheung54]

great cover!

you've got the chops man

put more emotion in it and it will sound even better

please check out my cover of this song

[rimen05]

I really love the tone and the guitar. Sweet Edwards. The playing is also way better than mine. Cheers,

[DonQuixotec]

@rimen05 Thanks, that means a lot!

[meima17]

no feeling men ............

[DonQuixotec]

@meima17 That's cause I am norwegian. We hold our feelings inside :)

[meima17]

@DonQuixotec sorry men thats not a good answer.....

[DonQuixotec]

@meima17 Us norwegians don't know how to produce a good answer :)

[meima17]

@DonQuixotec I see that :)

[DonQuixotec]

@meima17 Us norwegians cannot see at all. Nah, I'm gonna stop now haha :P

[simona4my]

Good cover! but it's not the perfect tone!:)

[DonQuixotec]

@simona4my I agree, I'm too lazy to experiment with tone and shit haha. But I use my own sound, I don't try to copy other's sound.

[misfits765]

good cover man! :D

[DonQuixotec]

@misfits765 Thanks!

[CheapGearGuy]

Nice vid...how are you liking hte Phonic Firefly? I am in love with mine...seriously...I don't know how I got along without it!

I was checking in on my review of the Firefly and saw your link and thought I'd stop by...glad I did...nice cover! :)

Take it easy!

CGG

[DonQuixotec]

@CheapGearGuy HAHA!!! You're the reason I bought it dude! Haha this was a cool encounter.

I like it very much, had some trouble fixing the asio driver thing and it doesn't work well with audacity. But got Cristal now, and everything works fine. Very good quality sound from it.

Thanks for watching

[CheapGearGuy]

@DonQuixotec

AWESOME! I'm glad I could help (I guess)! I'm sorry about your troubles with Audacity and I hope the transfer to Cristal was pretty painless(?).

Keep up the good work and I hope you'll keep me in mind in the future when you have more musical needs (I'm opening a store in about a month or so)!

Take it easy!

CGG

[DonQuixotec]

@CheapGearGuy Wow, good luck with that!

[delamartv]

thx, danke :)

[AlucardDraculaFTW]

Very good, but the song is a little better on the fast parts with wah-wah. But I haven't seen you use wah wah before, so maybe you just don't like it?

[DonQuixotec]

@AlucardDraculaFTW No I like wah-wah. And I have one. I did one of my enter sandman covers with it. But I suck with it. That's why you seldom see me use it.

[MrFreezeYourAZZ]

Very good!

[MagicalEmoElf]

can sum1 explain da headphone thing? i dont understand y ppl wear headphonez when making coverz... but itz a good vid just plz explain it lol cuz i dont even wear headphonez when i do coverz

[DonQuixotec]

@MagicalEmoElf Well in my earlier videos you don't see me wearing them, cause then I just used the cam microphone to record the sound. Now I am recording the sound through a soundcard, so to be able to listen to what I play, I have to use the headphones. The backing track also goes through the headphones. I could use my PC speakers too, but it's better using the headphones, plus then people who live around me is not bothered :)

Hope that answers it.

[viwishmaster]

ahaha

playback nopesssss

[viwishmaster]

Very nice cover ,ahahah

The place where u usually to record , has changed right?

ahaha

And the drum´s sounds , what did u do ?

[DonQuixotec]

@viwishmaster The old place was my room at my mother's house, but from now on I'll record from my place at the university, cause I have moved my music equipment over there. The drums etc is a backing track :)

[viwishmaster]

@DonQuixotec okiesss

ahaahah

but u can contrat a drumer , invite yukka for next videos

ahaha

Good Luck on new studio

=)

[viwishmaster]

@DonQuixotec next time invite yukka from Nightwish

ahahah

[fckdahlloff]

Hey Quixote! nice cover, the sound is pretty good, i think its better now in my opinion. Nice song, and cover also.

I still dont solve the problem of the G string, as I still dont get in touch with the specialist, however, the Zero Point Systems is amazing, it allows a perfect tuning. Ill keep you updated, and Ill upload a video as soon as i get a camera! Cheers

[DonQuixotec]

@fckdahlloff Yeah keep me updated dude. Why canh't you get in touch with the luthier? You could just take it to a random guitar shop too, you know? I don't think it will cost a fortune repairing it. However you should be able to just contact the shop you bought it from, if they don't answer you, that's shitty costumer support!

[alapunk13]

nice cover bro, the sound quality is great! did you mic your amp?

I was the guy who saw your rga121 vid, I have a vid with my rga121 now, you can check it out if you want but I'm not that good with guitar yet though.

[DonQuixotec]

@alapunk13 No there's a "recording out" function on the amp. I'll check your video out, dude :)
