Ok guys if you are interested we each have a pattern to lead on.
There is 6 patterns so you can each get one. We need 6 players.

I made this one by my self so it can be a little weird sometimes.

Each patterns are about 28 or 30 seconds.

p.s can we make sure if you play on it that your sound is not to loud so it will kill the bt
I've made this bt realy simple to make space for your lead! have fun.

Yes sir Steve! That was perfect blend with the pattern!:thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Thanks again:-)

I'm currently working on one original which we could do some collab recording on it. I'll let you know when I'm done.

Thanks Steve...I took a listen to this again this morning...I must have had cotton in my ears or something last night, my bit is way too loud in the mix...if possible, I'd like to remix tonight, I don't want this great track sounding at all dodgy on my account!

can't wait to hear the original...I'm still trying to get the hang of FL6, if you know of any tutorial material out there, please let me know.

ZappaFan

14-06-2006, 08:04 PM

Right I'm onto this right now hopefully something back up within the next hour or so. Sorry for the delay, but it's the world cup you know, England comes to a standstill when they are playing. Sad but true.

ZappaFan

16-06-2006, 04:20 AM

Hey Zane and the guys, I am sorry but I am going to have to drop out of this jam for now. My main PC with all my recording gear in it blew up last night and although I had got a couple of takes to this backer recorded I cant get to them for now. Hopefully it is just the power supply that has gone but I wont know until I get a replacment sometime today. So if you can wait for about 6-8 hours then I can hopefully have something done, otherwise carry on with the next bits and I will punch my bit in afterwards.

Apologies.

ZappaFan

Stew

16-06-2006, 08:01 AM

Zap no worries take your time mate. I will likely only get a minute to record tommorrow night so that gives you tonight and tommorrow till I will need the next bit. Hope you get it sorted out Ok.

ZappaFan

16-06-2006, 11:57 PM

Just an update on my recording problems. I managed to get my PC rebuilt, after purchasing a new case and power supply, but I wont be able to post anything up until tomorrow now. Hope this is okay, cheers dudes.

ZappaFan

Stew

17-06-2006, 07:01 PM

No worries Zap I have been chilling with my parents and Mr Red Wine today and off to Satriani concert tommorrow so realistically it will be Monday night when i do my bit.

ZappaFan

17-06-2006, 07:03 PM

No worries Zap I have been chilling with my parents and Mr Red Wine today and off to Satriani concert tommorrow so realistically it will be Monday night when i do my bit.

Thnaks for the nod on that Stew, been chilling myself today too. A bit warm for playing again. I'll chill and take my time on this then.

BTW, enjoy the gig mate, hope he plays all your faves for you. Some pics would be good if they let you.

Stew

17-06-2006, 07:08 PM

Digital camera is primed at the ready and i may even nip in to town tommorrow and get another SD card and get some video footage.(for the archives only though :wink: )

Ok guys!!! what is happening with this jam???:nono:

ZappaFan

20-06-2006, 10:28 PM

Sorry Zane, I still think it's me. What with learning stuff to play with the band, my PC blowing up and stuff, it completely slipped my mind. I'll have something posted early tomorrow morning. Sorry for the delay my friend.

ZappaFan

Thanks guys.

ZappaFan

Six

21-06-2006, 05:54 PM

I am having to drop out on this one guys. I am going to send Zane a PM explaining why but personal circumstances are preventing me from getting this done at present. Sorry to do this after I have held it up for so long.

Hey no problem Zap, these things happen. I'm sure someone will be only too happy to step in.

scalemaster

ZappaFan

21-06-2006, 10:59 PM

Hey Scalemaster, thanks for stepping up to the plate man. Much appreciated. You've doen a good job there too.:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

scalemaster

22-06-2006, 03:35 AM

Thanks guys! I was worried about it not being fluid or smooth enough and i was also kinda trying to hide my blues playin but i think a little slipped through. and that was my satch patch (although i didnt do that good of a job at making it)..
Thanks for the compliments guys, i know its a little different than what you've heard me do in the jamroom.

Stew

22-06-2006, 08:57 AM

not had a chance to listen to it yet but cool for joining in. I'll give it a listen tonight and hopefully get mine done tonight.

Satch patch? what effects unit do you use Bryan?

zeusse

22-06-2006, 06:39 PM

Excellent job Bryan love the intro :thumb:

I used my friends V-Amp (2?). I sorta just changed his patch around to fit this backer better. theres some delay in there too.

Awesome job stew! i cant wait 'til this is all done!

Stew

25-06-2006, 07:31 AM

I was experimenting with double stops and got a vibe going...well at least in my head anyway...never really spent as much time on it as I should have but oh well its done now. (last jam i'll be involved in for a wee while till the new baby is a few months old) can't wait to hear the last parts added.

Scalemaster I was very very impressed with your playing...the start is just splendid...rep point is on it way to you!!

Stew

Highway Star

25-06-2006, 09:44 AM

Nice job so far guys, top notch from all of you! I'll see if I can keep up the standard later tonight. (if I'm sober after the game!)

Thanks Farley! I'm working now but I look foward to go home to listen at your bit.

scalemaster

26-06-2006, 03:07 AM

Nice work Farley! I really dig that tone!

Steve Zane

26-06-2006, 04:01 AM

Stew , your bit was very interesting and the tone was good too. You kind a have a blues vibe to this which is good and diferent. I think you was playing a little bit to fast bro I sometimes have this trouble too we just have to ease back a little.A little trick that works well for me is that I take out the good old Metronome and I do 40mins of rythm and 40mins of scales and solo.I sometimes feel like killing the damn Metronome but it's helping me with my rythm.

Viscolex

26-06-2006, 04:06 AM

killer playing so far from every1 here...

interesting to see it finished

Steve Zane

26-06-2006, 04:08 AM

OK, a bit pushed for time but here it is!

Farl
Hey Farley , for a fast job that was damn good! I like the diferent scale you used in this! And your tone was good too. Good job!

I"m sorry if sometimes my comments are not allways positive but I only hope that when I'll be posting a song that if it is not good that someone will say it too me and not just say it's good. But the most impotant thing in all this is that we all have fun doing it! even if we are all not pro's.

Cheers Zane! I actually spent more time on the tone than I did on playing. LOL

As you probably know, I have no idea about scales, modes or any of that good stuff, I just play what I feel fits in. No worries about any of your comments on from me, that's what the site is all about. The help and advice I've recieved on this site has made one hell of a difference to my playing. Constructive criticism is really useful.

Steve being ahead of the beat is my unique style LOL....I'll be finished and in the oub ahead of the rest hehe. No thanks for the comments and I will blow the dust off my metronome and sit down and use it a bit more. Do yuo have any suggestions on execises to tackle on a daily basis. This is somehting I have asked on amny occasion and I keep meaning to create more of a regime for myself but never come up with anything meaningful...help would be appreciated.

Sixwheels I'll listen to your bit tonight when I get home can't wait mate...sure it ain't as fizzy as yuo think..if not I'll get you sorted out with differnet recording software :thumb:

zeusse

26-06-2006, 02:15 PM

Stew: Nice Hendrix tone I had to go back and listen again when you mentioned the ahead of the beat thing you do it so well I never even noticed before

Farl: The blues are in your soul mate you should have been born in Chicago

Phil: Since you have blessed us with your presence on this site your playing has really jumped 100% and I think that was your best performance yet..Rep point dude....and the fizz is only fizz

Great jam guys

Go Blackhawks! LOL

zeusse

26-06-2006, 02:32 PM

I like Chicago and the blues not the Blackhawks they can't score even when the goalie gets pulled....lol

Steve Zane

26-06-2006, 03:41 PM

Stew - A great job on the whole, you seemed to get a little bit out of beat in the middle but none of us are pro's and life is a learning curve so well done anyway, also an interesting choice of tone which fit very nicely.

Farley - I can't believe you 'busked' that, it was very good and your tone was very smooth. Nice job.

Oh well, here's mine... for some reason it sounds really 'fizzy' to me, I don't know why because it didn't before mixdown and I set the bitrate as high as I could get away with, but after much faffing around with it I decided enough was enough so it will have to do... sorry if I've ruined a perfectly good jam with my fizzy ending!

2282
Sixwheels,

First my friend you didn't ruined the jam...There was some realy crazy hot technic in your licks! I liked it it was smooth and melodic. The sound was not fzzy as you were saying.

Thank you all for taking the time to play on this Jam it was much fun for me to make this bt and ear it complete with all of you on it. You can be sure there will be a July ZaneJam!

Stew

26-06-2006, 03:44 PM

Steve Zane

26-06-2006, 03:50 PM

Steve yuor backing tracks are refreshing. They are a joy to jam over even for the less well gifted like myself :smile: Look forward to August as I will be into the nappies in July and will definitely not be able to participate but looking forward to the bt and what people record.
Thanks Stew!

You wanted some advices for that old metronome..here is one I use:I set a low speed on it and I play some scale picking up & down till I'm comfortable then I increse the speed till I have with out a mistake then I increse a little and do the same over and over! This is working good for me.You can use it for rythm picking too.

Good luck and I'm very happy for you that you will have soon your daughter!
It must be a special feeling!I'm looking forward to have a kid too.

zeusse

26-06-2006, 04:10 PM

If you practice with a metronome just play one note per beat and try strumming some chords when you're usin the metronome... you wont even notice yourself fixing your "before the beat" problem... just make sure you practice with that metronome.... it also helps with speed too ;)

scalemaster

26-06-2006, 09:12 PM

Viscolex - Nice playin! I liked the scale you were using, I cant tell what scale it was but it was cool.

SteveDak - Is satch one of your influences? That tone was bad ass, and that was some really smooth playin!

Stewbert - i really liked your playin, it sounded very hendrix-like, especially with that tone!

Farley - now that's what i call smooth playin!

Sixwheels - i like that tone, it's a little thin but its cool! and your riffs were killer dude!

all in all this was a cool jam and i'm glad i participated in it!

Highway Star

26-06-2006, 09:28 PM

Well Six, Fizzy or not, it's a bit subjective but for sure there were some cool licks there that I'll be pinching!! LOL Watch out for them in the next jam!!

Just listened to the whole thing again and, all in all I think there were some excellent bits! It was said earlier that none of us are pro's but hey... we sure are getting better!

Farl
