- My notes
Hello GMC! This lesson is about the palm muting technique and triplets played with alternate picking. I used my Zoom G2.1u with Mesa Dual Rectifier simulation and the flanger effect.
I chose to play riffs on the lower strings because the palm muting technique is most used with these strings. You can find five backing tracks with different speed, so I hope that beginners could enjoy this lesson.
Key: E minor
Time signature: 4/4
Tempo: 146 bpm
Jump to start: Home or `s` , you can also click/tap the lesson part again (the numbers above player)
Go to next part: PageUP or End.
Volume: ArrowUp / ArrowDown keys
Go to any part: Number keys (combinations also possible)
Pause or play: `k` or space key
Fullscreen: `f`, esc to close
Increase / decrease speed : `+` or `-`
