Dream Theater - Constant Motion

[SciMasterGeneral]

@DaNorthernLight Just because I like to take a moment when I'm not busy at work to bust on you DT douches doesn't mean I'm a troll. It's funny how people who only marginally understand music perceive things..

[SciMasterGeneral]

@DaNorthernLight Aerosmith is a way better band than Cream Theater...I don't know what you dumb ass is babbling about. I have been playing extremely complex music for a long time, but this music is akin to a 55 gallon drum of festering urine. This is NOT good guitar playing.

[burnsmay]

Great job 

[TimatorA]

Over 100,000 views... Didn't see that one coming!

[SergeyEremeev]

well done for attempting the solo, lots of mistakes there but still, well done. keep it up)

[YourDailyLaughz]

My ass you learned it that morning.

[TheSavage493]

awesome cover man!

[SciMasterGeneral]

It amazes me how anyone could possibly think that that is cool guitar playing. God petrucci is a tool.

[gir1258]

@SciMasterGeneral And you're an ignorant moron.  God, you're a tool.

[gir1258]

@SciMasterGeneral And you're an ignorant moron. God, you're a tool.

[SciMasterGeneral]

@gir1258 Anyone who is entertained by or thinks that Petrucci plays good rock guitar is an ignorant fool and a tool. 

[gir1258]

@SciMasterGeneral Are you done trolling...?

[SciMasterGeneral]

@gir1258 What is it with you and your" trolling" cliche bullshit? You just don't want to admit that your taste in music sucks balls. DT fans suck! You are the stiff-est, most boring audience of all time. Break out your scientific calculators boys and GIRL (She's only there working the prune juice stand) Cause it's time for some dispassionate, dishonest and just plain uncool music from those douchebags in Dream Theater! Makes me want to go crank up Aerosmith "Rocks" FUCK YOU CREAM E-ATER!

[gir1258]

@SciMasterGeneral cool story bro

[MrY0ufail]

@SciMasterGeneral I remember when I went to a DT concert, no one is disinterested, you are confusing disinterest with complete and utter amazement.

[MrRyubusa]

well that was amazing O_O Awesome job bro

[slashbullet]

Good , Very Good

[ibanezkemal]

Good. :)

[hoshdt1]

good cover man

[dordor147]

Is that a Season's End T-shirt I see you wearing?

I have the same T-shirt. Such a great band, aren't they?

Oh, about the cover. Very well played. Better than I could've done.

[TimatorA]

@dordor147 I cant believe iv only just noticed this comment! haha dude im in Season's End :) thanks for the kind words

[JyNGeN]

nice job...

[arac0022]

esse kra manda muito bem

sinistro!!!!!!!!!!!

[sloppyjoe911]

kick ass cover. ur great at guitar

[TheAdriano376]

[baksteen123]

i got the same guitar, but then in white and with a edge zero trem

[schokoladenriegel]

dude you rock <3

[NuclearBanjo]

Nice pickguard

[supermarble94]

solo d fc lolz

[MKiller5]

no, he choked!11

[parsleysprigs]

It's a pretty easy song I learned about half of it in an hour. can't get the blasted solo I can't really play any of his solo due to the fact that I don't have enough patience to learn the sweap picking parts. I could write my own song in the time it would take to perfect that.

[rcollins923]

naaailed it

[chaveznieves]

i was gonna say its kinda crappy, but if thats true that this is only one day or practice thats really good. i can tell you're good enough to do this next to perfectly with practice

[1337RaysoRb]

@ 4:51  nice sweep picking :)

[Ieatnubz43]

info says it's a cover -.- like first 2 words are "A COVER"

it would say under the video

[EvanPwnsYou]

read the discription idiot...

[EvanPwnsYou]

well if u look at the video before you click it you can see a guitar so it might be cover >.>

[rcollins923]

i can tell you are overweight and ugly.

[TimatorA]

Nope. Slim, buff and gorgeous :)

[rcollins923]

dude, i didn't write that reply.

I think this is amazing. I bet my brother was on my youtube account. I don't doubt that your slim buff and gorgeous.

[MrPintGlass]

why bother watching if you're just gonna hate.

[Zeus0000P]

dude, that was epic! i just started learning this about an hour ago, a lot easier than i anticipated. good job on the solo! the only part of that i have problems with is the arpeggio section. still can't do those :P

and btw, your band Seasons End is pretty good. prog metal rules! :P

[perecuteur]

the tuning is standard: EADGBE

[slyman1118]

dude this is SICK!!

nice job on the solo man!!!

[smackmud]

Huh...I think you didn't have any sound coming out of your guitar...I think that was the original sound track we are hearing...

[NekGuitar]

Huh... I think you're just stupid

[XanderXander72]

If you can't hear the difference between him and the actual track at the beginning of the solo you must be a tad deaf. Or at least tone deaf. >_>

[x6twink9x]

nah u can tell hes playing. u can hear certain mess ups he makes. otherwise its really good.

[Eirikguitar]

Tuning???

[DecMan41]

I think I shit myself at the solo.

[tucktimosprime]

great job,,,ive just uploaded the guitar backing track for this if anybody needs it..

[Talyehudaa]

You relly Good with your Guitar.

[MrEddieShoe]

Epic solo, ur the best :o

[cawcawcawkid]

BEAST!

[NickHate2006]

going through all your videos atm, everyone a badass cover!!

only found your channel through your ebay auction for the les paul...

next stop your bands myspace!

[JJ2422]

That is so goood!!!

[dtectorx1]

sweet guitar and AWESOME SOLO :D

[ProgressOfTheory]

anyon tell me were i can find the bass tabs of this song ?

u Rock BTW i like it...same like Petrucci :P

[TheWhiteCrow19]

I've seen your band on myspace, it's great! :D

[ytsejams20]

fucking excellent attempt;) loved every minute:)

[AceGost11]

AWESOME!

[theryer007]

nice solo

[vechy2]

great work i will check out your band sounds good

[kinghathnofury]

Dude please tell me the tuning. Is it standard? If not can you give me the six string of letters for it.

[edslipknot666]

its standard tuning

[mathiusvoodoo]

On a 7-string too.

[slayo8]

good stuff.....

but you didnt learn that in the morning

no way

you rock btw-

[RJ899]

great cover man

[michaelbryant21]

solo needs work but this solos crazy difficult so your above average on this.

WAY better than i can play it for sure

[PvtSkittles12]

Do you use a pedal or an amp for your distortion for this song?

[TimatorA]

everything is in the vid description

[PvtSkittles12]

Whoops! Sorry about that.

[Krelus]

I do like the diamond-plate.

Seriously, though, absolutely sick. Dream Theater music is by no means simple, and you did a fantastic job playing it.

[lordofthenolife]

2:21-3:04

My favorite bit personally, except the solo

Boy, you totally took out that solo - overall a great cover though, that's for sure

[ElCapisanto]

absolutely tight!!!! amazing cover. was excited about the solo, and you ate it ;)

[wooitschris]

Very nice cover!

[AndyLMD08]

nice man any advice for a 13 year old learning this... i got the opening riff in bout 5 mins but jusk asking?

[TimatorA]

the only real thing about Dream Theater stuff is to not take shortcuts and be sure to go note at a time.

[AndyLMD08]

thnx!

[Magiffin]

The music is too loud, but it looks like your playing everything correctly, i dont know if you have any effects that are making it sound like the one on the album, but whatever, good job!

[lotuscorpse]

Nice guitar cover man. Are you playing a Steve Via signature?

[TimatorA]

Nah the Jems are wicked guitars but this one is a RG2550ex with custom stainless steal pickgaurd i had made for me.

[U2fan007]

:O!!! I fream of being able to play liek that, how long did it take you to learn?

[TimatorA]

the song took me about 3 or 4 hours that morning. at the time id been playing for about 5 years.

[azizjahjah1211]

that was incredible great job

[vermilion111]

Very nice job...!!! Keep it up!!!!

[Funchmasteflex]

fucking epic win

awesome job man

[cakeman564]

tht was just simply amazing

[esqueletto1994]

what tuning?

[bioarsonist]

standard

[gatecliffe84]

agreed, very accomplished version, u can pick it out note by note, make it seem effortless...nice guitar too

[explodingpimp]

This is fucking amazing. I crapped myself at the solo.

[guitarpunk8]

Woah! Amazing performance :)

well done!

PLEASE!!! tell me where did you get the pick guard for your guitar!? I have the same guitar :D and LOVE the pickguard! How much was it and where did you purchase it from?

Thanks

[TimatorA]

it was from an website that isnt around anymore.

cost about £40 i think but ya.

try serching google for custom pick goards

[richie05mx]

hey man, really cool video, I also been playing for 6 years, there's a video of me playing constant motion if you wanna watch. keep rockin\m/

[redflagwaving008]

Simply Amazing!

[dl327]

very impressive solo. even better than some of petrucci's own live versions. no disrespect to God himself, but he doesn't bother with the 6th string during the sweeps it seems.

[Aesir2245Amish]

String skipping, motherfucker, have you heard of it?

[IronVuk]

Man real nice! Keep it going!

[MikeMikeNana]

imo you should get 6 midgets to pick each individual string and just play with your hands, you would probably have a higher view count then

[TimatorA]

Win :)

[harrisonthewiz]

Nice job on the sweep picking.

[ClamGoo]

I'm doing this song for A level music ^^. Good job with the solo, what a beast. This vids helped me alot with my playing cheers mate :P!

[TimatorA]

glad i could help :)

[drummerdude545]

nice dude

[PoCkEtRoCkEt50]

NICE!! XD

also howd u get ur band name on ur tee-shirt :O

[Fortress6661]

i dont see why you guys are bashing the solo. I mean it could use some work but kudos to the guy for playing it as well as he did. Your Forgetting Petrucci is a God among guitarists.

5 stars, great job.

[lawlshane]

Awesome tone

[8373857]

good job dude

[awaken1001]

Fucking awesome, man. Nice job notably at 2:45. Very nice try at the solo - that's one bitch to time and feel properly, never mind the speed. Certainly one of the better covers of this song I've seen so far. Cheers from Canada :)

[soadkotera]

woah ...still gets me

[anuar021]

solo sux really, is fucked up

[blubblubblub333]

chill out, its really nice

and by the way, nobody can touch petrucci x)

[GuitarMaxi]

me can haha XD

[TimatorA]

post a video of yourself doing better asshole

:)

[drummerdude545]

i was replying to someone who said you did bad

[TimatorA]

Ah well in that case i take that back and do apologies.

Simple misunderstanding and i hope there are no hard feelings

[drummerdude545]

yea no problem

[villihamson]

drummer dude......says it all

[blinkdog18222222]

hey, not all us drummers are dumbasses =P

haha its guys like that who give us a bad name

[XohmadonX]

damn dude

u are way too good xD

[shredder370]

not bad but the solo needs a lot of work

[KazeReload]

oh my gooooood I can play all the song but not the solo.. it's so fast! I envy you! xD

[soadkotera]

tnx i apreciate the help ¡!

[gibsonguy329]

Great work man. Amazing

[XnaySaturo]

Great cover, I was impressed by the solo! Thumbs up :D

[KazeReload]

oh my fucking god.. the solo is amazing, you really rock

[soadkotera]

woah man ur amazing

may I ask whow many years have you been playing so far ?

metallica covers takes= less than 1 year

megadeth covers takes= 2 years

DT covers = idk..playing for almost 1 year now ...cant do any of petruccis soloing

any advice? Excuse me if im being a bit selfish here just want to know.

[TimatorA]

Been playing 6 years now

Advice ... besure to get ur Techniques right.

Besure to use all 4 fingers and the right picking styles (alt picking and sweeping etc) and dont get frustrated if u can get somethin. just give it time and practice and itl come soon enough.

Apart from that really its just practice.

[tiredoftypical]

hey dude, can you link up the sheet music for that song? or pm me with it? thanks dude. I absoluetly love DT, and would love to cover this one as well.

thanks

Jason

[TimatorA]

if you go to -

ultimate-guitar. com /tabs / d / dream_theater / constant_ motion_ ver2_ guitar_ pro . htm

Cus of youtube i cant post direct url links so i put spaces in the address

[tiredoftypical]

thanks a lot man. I realy appreciate it. Im going to check it out and hopefully upload my version of it! if you get a chance, check out some of my vids.

thanks again

Jason

[tiredoftypical]

I was wondering if you know how to convert the GP3 file to work on GP4? I have the GP4 version, and I keep finding wikid midis for GP3, but they wont work on guitar pro four. Any idea?

[TimatorA]

hmm ... no idea actaully - i got GP5 and gp3, 4 and 5 work on it fine for me ... Try downloading gp5 and try that? danno wat it could be if not that.

And ya will be sure to check ur version out when u get one done :) good luck with it.

[AxlBeach]

Really nice`:D Can you please tell the settings? :)

[XXGuitarProXX]

Can i get more boss gt-8 settings frm u? :P

More distortion sound or those clean sounds tat ar nice.. I tried but i still cant find the sound tat i like lol :P

[TimatorA]

Hah well you could try wat i did, which was to go through all the presets it already had and save all the cool sounding ones and change little things on em

The setting for this vid was the only sound i actaully made from nothing.

look for a patch called AUTO PAD too

very cool

[CreamofDeathSoup]

Nice job man, 5 stars. Can i just ask? How long do you practice a day? Because it would take me at least 1-2 weeks of practice to learn one song.

[TimatorA]

on any normal day id say 5 maybe 6 hours? but somedays itl be upwards of 10-12?

average 5 a day id say... i have no life and live in the middle of nowhere so im alowd to be a guitar nerd haha

[CreamofDeathSoup]

Haha, yeah, but still thats a long time to practice. Keep it up

[nicholas247]

i couldnt see any mistakes, did you seriously learn that the morning before?!? and how much did your recording setup cost?

[TimatorA]

thanks and ya itwas that morning :)

well it was all about £2K - new PC, mixer, soundcard, monitors, Cubase SX3 and Reason.

But im a amature producer so its all well used. my band do our demos on it too so yaaa

[TimatorA]

altho this recording was done with a webcam lol

[nicholas247]

that's more than i've spent on 2 basses 1 guitar and 3 amps

[thedude070]

Top Class!!! A great track and you played it perfectly, r u in a band? . . . 5 Stars!!

[TimatorA]

w3. seasons-end. com

[paulaao]

Awesome!! Just for curiosity, how many years did you have to play like this?? I am starting...

[TimatorA]

5 years.

it simply is just practice. if you want it youl get it with time :)

[paulaao]

Ok thx! lol I never tired of seeing this video.

[Kindakous]

Hi! good cover man! it's impressive how it only took you one morning to master it xD Just one question: How do you do the sound at 4:14 (exact time) and at 4:19 (exact time), it sounds like an artificial harmonic, but mixed with a bending. Or is it just a normal AH? on the record it sounds different to a normal HA so I'm asking. Thanks!

[TimatorA]

Just normal AHarmonics.

Might have sounded diff cus i got a diff tone to the record version and also i have some chorus and delay on my lead sound.

But ya just normal AHs

[sialanka]

dude, nice going, one question, hows the pro edge trem working for you?

[TimatorA]

Couldnt be better

I have another guitar with the lo-pro and is crap compaired

Edge Pro ftw!

Stays intune so well for how much i use it. Cant go wrong

[Apocalyptic9]

They're not normal...

[waqaskn]

dude da whole thing was awesome but i never get how u guys do da end of da solo part..5:00 - 5:05.. wud u care to tell dat in detail plzz.?

[thenewcoolkids]

its a harmonic with a whammy bar pull.

[waqaskn]

oh k... n does it like happen on any string on da 5th n 7th fret or is there only 1 specific string on which this thing happens??

[TimatorA]

Best way to find out about them is lookin up Dimebag darrell squiels. But i find i only ever do them on the 3rd/G string and any of the 12th - 7th - 5th - 4th - 3rd - 2.7 - 2.3 - 2nd frets harmonics.

Pull off the string > Dive with the bar to loosen the strings massivly > tap/hammer on the harmonic then raise the bar to watever pitch you want

[deytora]

I know u not usin amp in vid, but im just interested: Wot amp u got? and r u happy with the sound ur gettin from the gt8 with the amp?

[TimatorA]

I gotta Peavey Valveking and for the price its wicked! but their are better amps..

I do use the 4 cable method so the peavy and GT8 are awesome together

[neolyte]

just awesome, I love this cover

[malmsuite1001]

wow that was cool man, where did you get the tab?

[TimatorA]

ultimate - guitar. com

[Elivion]

I used that tab, the one that tells you how the riffs go at the bottom? :Dd

Favourited. ^_^

[snarfflez]

One word man. WOW you rock !

[TimatorA]

Its an Ibanez RG2550ex

[Denleavy]
