18Apr2024 - I am continuing with final Grade 2 consolidation review and recordings with focus this week on the Blues lessons in module 13. I have recorded the blues progression in A with 70 bpm metronome:
Blues progression in A at 70 bpm- SteveL - 18Apr2024
and the beginner blues solo with 70 bpm metronome, both on my iPhone.
Beginner blues solo at 70 bpm - SteveL - 18Apr2024
I uploaded both tracks and synched in GarageBand and saved audio and uploaded to SoundCloud. This is the first time I have tried to do this and found out that I have to really expand the tracks in GarageBand to get precise synching of the two tracks. Here is the virtual duet created from the two recordings:
Virtual blues duet with progression in A and beginner blues solo - Steve
I got a little off rhythm in the last couple of measures ( I need to fight the impulse to rush to the finish), but otherwise I was surprised that I could get the two tracks to synch and sound like a blues duet. Now I just need to add a blues drum rhythm track and learn to play blues bass
