level 1 = not bad level 2 = (140 bpm) wtf it took me a couple days but i finally got the first part of medium down. my brain was like wtf. it's literally just getting used to hand doing the picking instead of writst. look at the guy in the video for example, he's using mostly hand muscles to gallop pick

Hey, one question. Isn't your notation incorrect for triplets? Your notation is basically "n" skipped from 16th notes "1 e n a". What you're playing sounds like triplets.

@ShadowMantraSteve 6 ай бұрын

There aren't any triplets in the exercise. It's quite common to get gallops and triplets mixed up. Gallops are typically two 16th notes and an 8th note or two 32nd notes and a 16th note. The longer note can come before or after the two shorter notes. Triplets are 3 notes with equal duration played over the space of 2 notes. Normally notated with the number 3 above or underneath

@whitewalker608 6 ай бұрын

@@ShadowMantraSteve Yeah! But to me, it sounded like all the notes were of the same length. Were you able to tell the difference? I didn't hear the gap between 8th and 16th note. That's why I got confused whether you're playing triplets or gallops.
