Riffmaster Pro – The Easiest way to Slow Down Guitar Licks

How many times have you racked your brain trying to hear that super fast Van Halen lick? How many times have you heard a guitar player at a club blazing through SRV? You ask yourself “how did they learn this stuff?” If you are like most players it has probably happened more than you care to remember.

Having the ability to slow down guitar licks is the secret to your success. If you can’t hear all the notes, you won’t be able to learn the whole solo. How many times have you heard a guitar player doing a “hack” version of a famous solo? The reason is they just couldn’t hear all the notes. Maybe they just weren’t motivated to do something about it. Maybe they didn’t care enough about sounding good to put in the time. These people are never willing to make an investment in a product that would have them playing note for note solos of the master’s.

The technology is there now so there is no excuse for not making the investment. You may even have played around with some of those awful slow down machines on the market. Most of them (maybe all) suck and are useless. That’s why it took me so long to even think about trying Riffmaster Pro. I wish it were around when I was first learning because I was horrible at transcribing! I may have been the worst out of all my friends.

The cool thing about Riffmaster Pro is, it doesn’t sound like garbage. You will be able to slow down any lick you want. You will be able to play along to the slow version and gradually speed it up. You will be blazing through solos at your next show. Your friends are going to wonder what you have been doing to make your playing so much better than theirs now.

Make this investment in your guitar playing now. You won’t regret it. Visit RiffMaster Pro.

Slow Down Guitar Licks – My Early Transcriptions

Let me tell you the story of my early days transcribing solos. As a young kid my first transcribing project was a BB King tune. I failed miserably! I mean, that’s how bad I was. It was four notes. Now sure I was new to the guitar, but come on! Four notes? Yeah as embarrassing as it is, it is true.

My second project was Talk To Your Daughter by Robben Ford. I had it on vinyl. I remember when I my friend and I were in my room and I was transcribing one of the first licks, he was laughing because he already did it, and I was failing miserably! I ripped the record of the turntable and smashed it with the bottom of the guitar. I was just so frustrated because I was struggling so much when it seemed easier for everyone else. I even tried some of the slow down machines. Garbage!

I am happy to report that 20 something years later, I am much better at transcribing. I have transcribed a lot of difficult music for my friends. Yes that’s true, I even transcribe for them now!

I want to offer up a couple of tips to you if you are struggling. One of the first things I did was to start “trapping” notes. I am not sure if this is a real word but it’s what I call it. I would have to just find one note at a time. I could hear the individual notes that way and it’s how I got going. After a while I started to hear intervals and then patterns and chords progressions. I am happy to say that today I am transcribing all kinds of music. One of the most important things I learned is to be patient. You will get better if you work at it.

Try “trapping” the notes if you are struggling. Start with something easy like a BB King lick. Funny how I call it “easy” now! Keep chopping away at until you have 3 or 4 notes and then move on. You will get better!

Earlier in the post I called those slow down machines “garbage” Until now I haven’t found anything that I liked other than RiffMaster Pro. Check it out now it will save you hundreds of hours.
