New Solo Blues course (with MatchMySound)

Help, I am feeling a bit left out with all this chit chat about Solo Blues, BLIM and even a hint about a Rock Course.

Enjoy the Blues course Roger! :guitar:

I’ll be expecting some new swingin’ tunes from you in the next few weeks…:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Cheers, Shane

Hi Shane :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:
Thank you and

Ooo… increase the pressure a bit :scream: …

Some people say “soon” or “looking forward”, so I can get away with the fact that “soon” will be in 6 months or even longer for me :joy:

And I suddenly think again how quickly you finished those lick solos in BLIM within a few hours of practice :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: :man_bowing:

In any case, I have a nice goal ,good to hear from you :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Greetings

Maybe it’s just me, but I would benefit from a study group vibe and a common goal ? Like this month, we learn the first arrangement and share our progress with it. Next month, we try to improvise with it. Maybe a 6 months study plan like our beloved BLIM :upside_down_face:

I mean I do get more things done when I have small goals and have a community vibe. Otherwise, I get distracted and start learning a bunch of courses at the same time :rofl:

And again, no, of course not :sweat_smile:, many students will learn better this way, find a group :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

That doesn’t work for me, I’m more like that butterfly that is finally free and I feel much happier that way alone

But also a little with most of you all course in other ways :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Now I go :butterfly: ,Greetings

I’m really really interested in this lesson. This is a style of playing that has been a goal of mine since before I started playing. It’s a big part of WHY I picked up the guitar in the first place.

I watched the 4 intro lessons and they seem attainable at my current skill level.

Have really enjoyed the BLIM course and excited to get back to my acoustic guitar with this new course. I have a naive technical question regarding this MatchMySound feature (not sure if this is the right chat). While my electric guitar is plugged into a Focusrite and Reaper (Windows), I don’t currently have an external microphone and my acoustic guitar doesn’t have a pick-up. What’s best advice for inputting the acoustic sound into MatchMySound? (My phone is Android). Thanks!

I had thought about that a little bit for my case, and even though my acoustic does have a pickup and I do have a condenser mic I can plug into my focusrite, I wasn’t going to get fancy with it. Depending on whether I liked using my tablet or PC better, I was just going to use the basic internal mic in the tablet or the mic built into the inexpensive usb webcam I have on my PC (or even the mic built into my laptop).

One thing to take into consideration is the browser/device, somehow I never got good results with Google Chrome on my Windows PC with matchmysound. My score was always really really bad and then I started using Mozilla Firefox and everything went back to normal. So it takes some trial and error.

I think that I’d like this too! Though in BLIM I didn’t succeed throughout the 6 months, here - with a slower pace or less material I would like to take part!

I can understand that - generally, I am like you in this regard, Rogier.
My own pace, no questions, and then suddenly I am coming up with some surprising super performance video (in my dreams! :grinning_face:)
But when I took that BLIM endeavour, being in a group with a few nice chaps giving each other tips and posting a video or asking question has formed a bit something like a mini school class, while I was a bit on the quiet side, it felt nice to be in there. And if I could choose my class mates - Rogier you would be one of them for sure! :slight_smile:

Hi! I just purchased the solo blues course. I’m somewhat confused about the content. What I see are 4 lessons. (Intro to Match My Sound, Boom bass with licks, steady thumb primer, and steady thumb blues). Is that content the entire course or am I to receive additional material at a later date? Also, I have not located the Match my sound module. Any help navigating would be appreciated. Thank you!

Welcome to the forum Joe.
The Blues Solo coarse consists of 8 modules with 3 seperate lesson break downs of each style of fingerstyle blues.

On your Dashboard go to your account/purchases the full course will be in there.

If that doesn’t work if you scroll down to the see inside button on the purchases page that will take you to the full course and should be unlocked.

Or contact @FannyJustinGuitar she can help you out. But probably not until tomorrow morning.

Also MatchMySound is a tab called ‘Play’ on the lesson page of Boom Bass With licks for exemple. It’s near the lesson text, at the bottom of the video

Also, the link to the course :

So it’s built into the web page? Not an app we need to buy or install?
