Hello from Peterborough in UK

Hi Greg,
Welcome here and i wish you a lot of fun :sunglasses:
Greetings,Rogier

Welcome to the Community Greg…I wish you can find a Jam Buddy where you live as it seems to me such a big deal to enhance learning!

Hi. Iain, up in Scotland. Hobby player for many years. Blues mostly. Up for collaboration. Is latency not an issue online? Could try I guess.

Have a look at you tube clip and let me know. Looks ok, but do need pc / mac

Looks interesting. I know Skype and Zoom have too much latency to jam. Is this free software? Mind you, we could collaborate on ideas etc without playing together. What do you think?

Meant to say…I have a PC.

Hi Greg, welcome. Hopefully you can find that Jam budddy. Anything learnt in the past should help you one way or another with you current learning.

Hello Greg and welcome to the community.
It’s not quite what you were asking about but have you checked out our regular Open Mic events? Community Open Mics – How They Work, Access & Eligibility

Hi thanks for your reply. My only concern is that you are way better. Everything i am learning is different to what I learned in tge past. It would be good to try the app and see if it works so what times are convenient for you,we can give it a try??

It is free i think for sessions up to 45 mins.
What did you have in mind re collaboration?
Am up for anything that helps

Hi. Good to be in touch. I’m a learner. Even after a lot of years trying. We all are. Collaboration is a good thing in itself. I’m up for giving it a try. I’m on Skye this weekend, but home tomorrow. Tuesday toThursday looks good, then after the following TuesdayI’m pretty free. Do I need to download the app presumably? Tell me what I need to do and we can try this. Cheers. Iain.

Maybe compare notes on what we know and where we want to go. Everyone knows something I don’t know! Cross-fertilisation. And just contact with another musician is fruitful?

Hello Greg and welcome to our community. :slight_smile:

Grade 4! Nice. Are you finding it a big difference between steel and nylon playing?

Hi i have had another look at the requirements. Yes download the app no need to register. Need a wired internet connection and a microphone and wired headphones. I connected guitar with rocksmith usb csble which worked ok
When i click on new session it gives a code for the session. You will need to click on join session snd enter the code
Will need s better way to contact so we can iron out any issues
Fingers crossed

Hi Greg,

Welcome to the community good luck with your search never say never it can happen when least expect.

Drop me a direct mesage to make contact and let’s take it from there. I’ll download the software in the meantime. I’ll look into how to input. I use an audio interface for DAW work (audacity), so that might be possible. I’ll check it out.

Hi Ian,
If I’m not mistaken, posting your email like this is easy prey for bots that fill your mailbox with spam or use it for other things…Or maybe you know more about it and it works differently in the way you post it? hopefully i’m wrong.
Greetings,Rogier

Big differences yes. Just moving onto fingerstyle with justin and that is fairly easy based on what ive been taught in the past but blues and power cords are proving to be tricky at the moment but we persevere
