Kaossilator (How to play famous songs?)

Post by Calibat »

Hey I was wondering if there's any website that has some tips learn how to play some famous songs on the Kaossilator?

I already know how to play "Smoke on the Water" from Deep Purple because I learned from a video in Youtube, but I can't find any other songs...

Anyone know where can I find it?

just use your ears, maybe some online guitar tabs, then determine which scale or scales you'd need to have those notes

just use the same tecnique as in the video, trying and failing until you got it right, then practice with the piece of paper and finally record when you're ready...

you can't not know how to read a guitar tab, come on, you didnt try a bit i guess

strings are e a d g b b from lo to hi
and the numbers indicates, guess what, the fret number, so ---2--- on the bottom line means fret 2 on the big e string, thus f# (e plus 2 semi tones)
from that you can now read tab

Strings (from low (fattest) to high)
E A D G B e

I think you meant that but by accidentally put two B's :wink:

maybe putting a transparent "grid" (paper as suggested somewhere) could make life a little easier... like that u could remember graphically where a note ends/start on a grid...
