[TG9900]

what means pitch ?

i come from germany i dont know what it

exactly mean

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

Pitch is just a perceived fundamental frequency of a sound by the ear.

Perfect pitch is the ability of a person to identify a musical note without the benefit of an external reference of any sort.

[TG9900]

[DarkWhite88]

Perfect !

great tone !

5/5 starts :D

[Wiesterbunny66]

hey this is great, I have a few questions though. How do I get a backing track like that, and I have been having trouble finding trascripions of the whole song. Also I am looking at colages for next year. I live in minnesota and I will probably go to McNally Smith. Do you have any advice or recomendations for me and others in the simular situation?

[Mikalicous93]

i think "blues jam tracks"

or something like that

[PinkAceOfHearts]

Niiice..

[blahman178]

hey man how old are you? tell me about your scholarship, and the audition in a message if you want! I'd love to hear all about it. I"m looking at possibly applying.

[spittingimage4005]

i hat anotations

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

How does one "hat" an anotation?

...Fail

[AlexRaykin]

I have recently auditioned and got in and not I can't afford it.. did you get any scholarships?

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

Yes, the "Berklee's Best" award, and some others...

Just look into private scholarships , they're a huge help.

[blahman178]

very nice, I hope you got in. I love fusion like this.

[zerotheking1993]

What a... AWESOME! Really good sound and playing, I really liked it! Congratulations!

[rkalamdani]

could i get a backing track

[IChinaManI]

did you get in?

[RockAndFuckingRollin]

bes cover i've herd.

[mdv13]

tabs?

[DavidGilmourrocks]

I came

[DarkLotus118]

Really awesome men. If you do the whole cover and upload it, it will be great.

Did you learned this by ear?

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

Yes..This was by ear.

The reason I didn't to the first part of the middle section is that for my Berklee audition, The first half of the solo section, I wrote my own solo over top of it. I didn't want to make people mad by putting my own part in it.

[Martudutzi]

I don't think you're really playing that! you look like a street junkie!

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

Welp...I am..

[Vinniemoore89]

he is

[ChucklesMginty]

Nice, you should enter that Dean shredder search competition.

[dudtonNE]

:O u have the backing track for this sonG?

[MUSICALCHIMP]

Great job dude. I notated the whole solo for my final ear training project(Happened to be at Berklee), and that part you skipped was the biggest bitch.

Anyways, are you using a string dampener for the tapping bits?

[MisterNicholasGuitar]

Yeah. I did that too. lol But just to write the score out for my Berklee Audition.

No Dampeners used.

[kewl2006]

is there any chance you would maybe give us the backing track? :)

[SoSGtr]

Hey man, awesome that you got in! I was wondering if you could explain and talk about the audition, I plan on auditioning for Berklee next year, I am a senior in High School. Any help/advice would be awesome! Thanks and Good Luck at Berklee!

[tehsimo]

so did you get in?

[NicholasGuitarScott]

Yes. =D

[frankiefusion]

Sounds great. What do you use for recording and percussion on your songs (referring to your myspace)? (btw the songs on there are great as well)

[Halaberdizzle]
