I'm motivated and will continue working on solo'n incorporating various techniques and scales.  My focus for these tracks was the A minor pentatonic scale

real nice ladybass,... except its too short. 

I hear ya six!  Thanks for the encouragement!

[MikeGee]

man ladybass can play. Makes me what to use the Schector as firewood. Ummm on second thought I'd just sell it first.... I'm not doing that either.

[DWBass]

Alright, here's my version with solo. It's a little sloppy. Kinda did it in between working on some new gig tunes.

DW that was sweet!!!!!

[floaded27]

come on DW!! sloppy??? i was hyped when i heard that. you mind if i put that on my mp3 player and study it. that was just awesome.

here's my take on it. i had only the drum track so i put that extra chording on that sounds similar in the background.

+2 on your comment to DW!!  DW that was sweet, man!!!   I like what you did with that backing bassline too ... what kinda effect did you put on that?    How do you personally approach solo'n?


Floaded .. I like the chording & that pause in the drumloop too   .... now I have 2 new tunes for my mp3 player

I used a Zoom 506II effects pedal. I don't know what the patch is called but it's basically some sort of envelope filter and an octave effect together. As for how I approach soloing.......I use a 'vocal' approach. I just try to form a melody of some type. I don't use a theory (scales, modes, etc.) approach at all. I owe that to your bassline though. It really is funky and inspired me a lot. I think you really should go for a full production. Lyrics and all.

God bless.

Did you say sloppy?  I wish i could play sloppy like that.  Sounds Good!!!!

[BigFoot_BigThumb]

i just have the line out from my combo amp plugged in to the line in jack on the back of my computer (you need a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter) and i use a program called Audacity. its a free opensource audio editor/recorder (not shareware, so dont worry about paying to get full version) just google it and download it.

all i do is just import the file and just hit record and start playing. you can adjust the levels or add effects or even add/record another track to it.

just listened to it. this is a very smooth and nice groove, you can do a lot with this bassline especially solos.  I'm going to have fun with this one.
