Okay.
Sorry you don't understand the diagram, it's notationally incorrect but reflects the strum as I hear it.
I posted it more for myself as it works for me.
Edit
As the diagram isn't entirely correctly notated , I've removed it as I don't want to confuse others.
The Randoms I need to work on.
Thing is when I randomise the 1/16th note strum it sounds like a different tune :S
Time to lighten up with a Smiths Crisp now !

Don't get me wrong, i understand what you wrote down. My head also hurt when trying to slowly play and count out loud exactly what i had written out. I hated recording that segment.. :S

Thanks for putting the lesson together.
This lesson it tough on the left hand.
Good for my barre chord endurance too.
Much of what I need.
Ouch !
Thanks

It sounds great, that's why I persevered with it.I hated recording that segment..

I'm glad that it sounded good Dermot, it was just that my head was hurting. My hand is faster than my head and me counting out loud.... :S (it certainly wasn't take one.... :blink: )
Yep, a workout for the fretting hand for sure.... Great exercise! I'm glad that there are a couple of open chords in there too.
Thanks Dermot, don't forget the 'random'-aspect of strumming.

Dermot, why are you writing down a pattern when you know the point is to play it randomly?
You'd be better off with a guitar in your hand than a pen!
Just play and consciously try to play it differently every time, keep playing what's pleasing to your ear and you'll develop a technique which works without having to think about a pattern.

Hi Vanessa and Dean
I am playing it with guitar in hand.
You both miss my point.
I'm trying to work out the correlation between what I hear, play and how to write it down in notation.
Anyway here's my attempt to put what I wrote to notation in GP6.

PS! I find it a good thing that you write down what you are doing,, its all a bout understanding what we are doing, right?
Its good Dermot,, keep strumming and counting (in your head) and make fake strums (I guess), do what you like, rockstrum, balladstrum, folkstrum,16strums, hit the body, not to strum :laugh: ,, mix all these things and you're randomly,, (not sure). B)It's Creepy again....... :ohmy:
I've been playing with randoms again :dry: and need a had to convert what I'm strumming to notation.
Below is a scan of what I'm playing, can anyone help me out..... pleaseeeee.
Maybe even in GP6.

Although the GP6 file ins my interpretation of what I wrote in the diagram
in GP 6 it doesn't sound quite right a touch fast. In the lesson Vanessa was playing at 90 BPM.
At 90 BPM my file sounds too fast so I reduced it to 75 BPM but somethings not right.
I'm not quite sure how to fix the GP file to sound less crammed / mechanical.
Although what I wrote seems correct, my GP6 file I'd like to improve......
Any GP6 experts out there that may throw me a bone ?
