• Hello Everyone,

    I hope you’re having a good weekend. I just wanted to pop in to say that this has been a very busy week and there have been around 10 new modules added in the last seven days. Huge thanks to TIm and Jeff for creating all this content.

    A few of the key ones are the Sunny Side of The Street lessons; including deep-dive, solo…Read More

    • I certainly appreciate all of your work. I’ve studied with Tim and his various on-line iterations for a long time. If he is still writing his “Grid Sheets” for the various tunes he will be presenting here, I would really be a happy camper if they could be posted also. I assume there are many, like me, who a visual learners.

  • I really love Tim’s improvisation style and the wealth of great content he provides. I’m particularly interested in understanding his approach to improvisation – what goes through his mind and how he visualizes the fretboard while playing. For example, I know some improvisers divide the fretboard into 6 or 7 shapes (usually based on major scale…Read More

    • Thank you for this great question, I’ll give it some thought and make some videos that specifically address these questions.

      • Awesome! Excited to see those videos whenever they come out. Your expertise is always enlightening.

        • I just looked at the Sunnyside deep dive and the improvising video may give you some insight into your questions. don’t be afraid to look at the examples bar by bar and see if you can detect some useful guidelines. I almost always have the chord of the moment in mind ( or more accurately, the SOUND of the chord of the moment in mind) but while I’m…Read More

          • 👍Thanks Tim; I will be very interested in any guidance you can give on moving towards playing without too much thinking and without relying on memorized solos.

          • Thanks Tim, I’ll definitely do that!

            It’s fascinating that you mentioned the absence of “thinking mode”. During improvisation, I often encounter this “problem” of getting fully immersed in the world of sound, as you described it. When I’m in the flow, I struggle to think analytically, whether I’m trying to identify/recall the chord of the moment…Read More

    • Hi Noam,

      Thanks so much, I know we have that livestream about it coming, but we’re going to add a full deep dive to the list as well!

      thanks for the suggestion,

      Luke

  • I still can’t figure out how I can get the sound splice transcriptions into PDF so I can print and mark them up…do I need some other software or app? Or what I am missing? Please let me know!

    • Hi Daniel,

      Firstly, thank you for being here and for embracing the Soundslice technology. I know how frustrating it can be when you can’t get it to function the way you want. Apologies for that.

      iIt looks as though there might be a little bit of confusion about what Soundslice can do. Soundslice doesn’t give you PDFs. Soundslice is an…Read More

      • Hey, Luke – thanks for the quick and clear reply….Sounds good to me…Aller Anfang ist schwer…so I’ve heard the Germans say – but in this case, for sure worth it! Thanks again!
