Ear Training - Level 2: Transcription Technique

[PossessWithin]

Great video bro, I'm gonna try singing the notes! :D

[MacacoPulando]

I used Audacity around 2005 and didn't really like it, but I must say the software has improved a lot since then. Also, this may just be psychological, but it sounds like it plays my music files a lot clearer than iTunes or VLC.

[deepakeapen78]

Is it also necessary to be able to listen to a random note off of a solo and be able to say which note it is?

[mEtAlMaNiAc787]

i use window media play and play it super slow and do it it works for me....

[MasslRockss]

This might be one of the best lessons I've ever seen. If not THE best.

[dcskater1001]

[Marco81blues]

im to lazy to transcribe...a shame really, everytime i try to transcribe something a big boost in my playing happens.

[astralfarts]

[golfnff]

Andrew, your the man!

[MrBossdr880]

Thanks a lot, you are a great help.

[Drako150]

very nice lesson!! thnxs! man, to practice!!!

[tabotabojayar]

so ...it's trial and error....damn..thank God there's Audacity to change the tempo without changing the pitch...

[dako89]

awesome! im gonna start now!

[frigitar]

at 8:30, how does he know its a B something chord? My ear is so bad that I wouldnt know if it was a D or G evern ;'(

[PlutoThePlant]

@frigitar when he figured out the first 3 notes with his guitar he noticed the last one was a B

it went D D C# B

because the chord came in on the B note and they sounded very similar, the chord is a B

[DylanCashandCo]

Brilliant

[johnnynoirman]

i like your video..but is "audacity" really free?

[JYZProductions]

@johnnynoirman yeah I've been using it for years ... it can also take intros to cds out and all kinds of cool stuff.

[Malmsteen1990]

@johnnynoirman WTF!!!!??? 

[dako89]

@johnnynoirman Yes of course!

[Roachamous]

ive been playing guitar 4 months so could someone tell me how long the think till i can transrcibe good

[cockyrooster]

@Roachamous just start trying to figure out some of your favorite artists' songs (that sound do-able right now.. nothing too ridiculous) without looking. For now just focus on the bass lines and then after that work on hearing melodies and chords. This is just how I started though; I say try what I did and see what's easiest for you to pick up!Ear Training/Interval Training programs REALLY helped me too. You can find a plethora of free ear/interval training programs online.

[fishinandguitar]

do a how to get audacity to beable to record music , all the lame download shit that impossible to deal with , i have tried for hours audacity is worthless fraud progream there is no way to get it to work

[Jed9133]

I will wait for the other videos..

[wobblingbaby2]

Andrew , Whilst your a bit of a rarity onYoutube ie someone giving lessons who understands what they are talking about -I think you have approached this the hard way -why not use program like Adobe Audition that slows down the notes without changing the pitch , highlight one or more notes , put them on a playback loop,then slide your fingers along the guitar freeboard until you find the notes

[jayjaygibbs]

@ wobblingbaby2 audacity can do that as well

[HowCouldYouForget]

thanks, that was reaally helpful, great lesson, 5*

[ShelterDogs]

Great lesson, Andrew. I'm glad someone mentioned your channel in some other channel I visit, maybe Justin Sandercoe's. You and him are the best guitar teachers on YouTube.

[blimps90]
