You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Just develop your own tone(s) and quit trying to emulate some famous guitarist. YMMV
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

In another board someone asked about getting the sound that Santana gets for "Black Magic Woman."
The best response was:
"He has the money to throw at his music to get the sound that he wants. We don't."
Best response I have ever heard.

So once I was in a praise and worship band and they brought in this guy to give us a master class in guitar playing.
It appeared that he knew how to play one chord.
I think it was a G5.
But he had a pedal board with literally like 60 or 70 pedals on it and the whole attitude that you would expect with a person who has such a setup. He also had a shaved head and a partial goatee I think, if that helps you to picture it.
It all sounded incredibly horrible as you can imagine. But he was quite convinced that he could teach us to play the unicorn sound if we would only pay attention to his massive pedal board.
He got on to the part about playing dotted eighths. I told him I didn't need a pedal to play dotted eighths.
He said that was impossible and how did I do it. I said I did it with my fingers. He didn't believe me and passed me his guitar and told me to do it in front of everyone.
So I play dotted eighths manually. He stared in amazement and said it was some kind of trick and I was fooling him and he didn't believe it but I needed to use a dotted eighths pedal.
I got up and walked out.
Tone doesn't really come from a pedal board or any other magical trick, and if you want to mic your amp great but there are other ways to get tone without mic-ing your app. There are a million ways to get tone without mic-ing your amp. Sometimes I mic my amp and sometimes I don't.
95% of tone comes from your fingertips and your technique.
And in my humble opinion the best tone that's ever been created is a Stratocaster plugged directly into a twin reverb with no effects whatsoever.
But you have to know how to play.

...Deb Not buying that for a second. True, the gear has something to do with it, but mostly it's the player. A good player can make anything sound good. It doesn't matter what gear a poor player has, he will still sound like a poor player.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
