    I broke my writers block

    decade

    After going the last couple of weeks with a severe case of writers block, i was going over this little section of tune from a side project band I'm working with, and
    "the groove" hit me to write a little solo over it. i really don't know why it hit me so strong or why i felt compelled to write over this "standard" type riff,but I'm not gonna question inspiration..lol. excuse the low quality of the track it was just the scratch track that i had learned the tune from. i hope the chemistry don't stop it seems like it is so hard to get inspired anymore. opinions? comments?

    Nice!

    Only the change in dynamics, is a bit sudden for me. I'd end the solo on a long sustained note, or on a short fast-paced shred piece. It sounds a bit akward to me atm. Awesome stuff, though!
    You took too much, man. Too much. Too much.

      Dave, that's f*cking cool. I love the whammy bar technique and sweep picking. A good melody in there too. I would sustain the last note of the solo to progress into the ending. But still really cool.

            I think it's very cool, Dave! Nice vibe going there....wish I could sweep like that! And I like the way it ends.

              thanx guys [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

              G.O.R. &amp; M. Steve....
              its funny about the sustained note comments, cause thats how it was first like this...
              ( sustained note end. )

              but just letting it hang seemed lacking somehow.

              thanx F.J. &amp; Budman,,,DAVE, do you mean the actual Type and time in msec. or the unit itself?

              RON, thanx bro, like i said, i thought the end needed something, it felt like something being said getting cut off in mid sentence, so i through the little whammy legato run on there.

                    Dave,,its the "DUAL DELAY" on my Digitech 2120
                    its a little different from a multi tap, more like two separate delays.
                    the first delay is at 1 sec. and panned to the left,
                    the second delay is 498 msec. and is panned to the right
                    this gives it movement from left to right and a little
