Try using a metronome, start at 100 beats per minute (BPM), playing 2 notes per beat, using correct tremelo technique. Keep playing 2 notes per beat, turning up the metronome one notch at a time (or 5 beats per minute on a digital metronome) until either you can't play that tempo, or the metronome maxes out (can't go any faster).
Set the metronome at 100 BPM. Play 3 notes per beat. As above, keep turning up the metronome one notch at a time until either you can't play that tempo, or the metronome maxes out. Set the metronome at 80 BPM, play 4 notes per beat. Repeat as above. Set the metronome at 60 BPM, play 6 notes per beat. Repeat as above. Set the metronome at 40 BPM, play 8 notes per beat. Repeat as above. This should do what you need, but you can do the same with 10, 12, 14, etc notes per beat. In my teaching, I've found 8 usually accomplishes what is needed. If you do this as part of your daily practice, you will eventually have a smooth tremelo, with the ability to control how many notes you play per beat. Best of luck!! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Taterbugmando" group.
