Keeping Time

Not yet but there's a series of articles in the works (first one should be up either this weekend or by the end of next week) that might help you out. And, yes, it will have audio examples.

You're right in that this is a subject that's not covered a lot in terms of tutorials. We're working on it, though.

Peace

I purchased this DVD off Justin's site a few months ago, and I believe it should come with every first time guitar purchase...

Hi Guys
Thanks for the replys.
I'll investigate both sources.
The Guitarrrghhh is such a challenge to me......others seem to make it look so easy.

I am determined not to be beat by it though....pardon the pun!!

The podcasts could be useful as well:

Thanks for posting Nuno.....
nice link to dhodge's strumming podcasts....I missed that ....cheers:)

The Guitarrrghhh......

ha! never heard it put that way before. applies perfectly to my experience, I might have to use that sometime!

MoreNoise: if there are a few specific patterns from that article you'd like to hear let me know and I'll record them for you.

Hi Ignar Hillstrøm
Thanks for the offer to help me out.
I purchased the Justin Sandercoe's DVD at the above link (below too!)

http://www.justinguitar.com/en/PR-007-Strumming.php .........cheers Keith
Nice disc, I'd recommend it to anyone :) ....Like me that is!!

I have been working through them....
I will return to this article once I have finished the DVD and if I am uncertain about anything will post back if that is okay with you?

Thanks again

Hi Dhodge
Is this the first part of the new series you were referring too?

https://www.guitarnoise.com/lesson/into-the-blue-rhythm-part-1/

Thanks in advance

Hey Morenoise!

This is the first part:

https://www.guitarnoise.com/lesson/getting-past-up-and-down-part-1/

It's new and, as it says in the text, basically covers things that you find in other Guitar Noise articles, only this time with MP3 sound files. In the next part, we'll cover more complex rhythms, like dotted notes and triplets. Part Three will be about how music notation, especially those "direct from the recordings" transcriptions automatically clue us in to the "up and down" of the stroke even though they may not write it out as such. And then we'll use that information in Part Four to figure out how to do it all by ear.

Thanks for being patient with me getting this stuff up online. And I hope it helps.

Peace

Hi Dhodge

Thanks for the link.....
Gee....no need to apologise, I can imagine you have your work cut out keeping on top of the everything here.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner....I'll check the link out....sounds good and will followup on the subsequent postings.

Thanks again for your help

Here's another site that has samples of strumming patterns
