This time I am attaching the ptb file since it is large.

Hi Szulc,
I don't want to seem like a moron, but what file format is a .ptb file as my computer doesn't recognise it and can't use it. Is there a particular program I need to read it? Cool article you wrote on spins by the way, very interesting!

pdb. is a file format for Powertab, which you can download for free here: Powertab

Hope this helps

I t would have been impractical to post a bitmap or series of bit maps of this. SPeaking of which how do you guys generate your bitmapsof Powertab do you just <ctrl> print screen and paste into paint or is there an easier way?

Hi...

Well, I do have Paint Shop Pro 4.12 ( which is kinda outdated but still cool... unfortunately I currently don´t have the install-file anymore, but it´s a freeware program )
With that program, you can do "Capturing", kinda photographing what´s displayed on the screen. Therefore, I can make jpegs of several staffs, like I did for my articles and some of my posts at the forum.
I chose the area of the screen to be "captured", then this section gets transferred to PSP, and there I can brighten up the colors a bit ( I do, otherwise it´s a bit too dark ), change the size ( usually I resample to a width of 600 pixels ) and save as a bmp, jpg or gif.

Once you get used to it, it works pretty fast...
Warm regards
Eric

Here is a thread I started over a year ago with some cool Neo-Classical ideas.

Hey James,

whew... I took another look at the ptb... awesome stuff. Quite difficult to nail atz the tempo the ptb is set to, but a great exercise and great melodies in there.
I guess I missed that one when you first put it up.
Thanks
Eric

Thanks
I used to do this years ago, I can't play it nearly as fast as I used to. I would like to hear Thorsten or JDF75 do this!
I'll bet they could nail it at a ridiculously fast tempo!

Yo James!

Your wish is my command! So here´s my best attempt after practising it for an hour.

It´s not that ridiculously fast but at least it´s half way clean.

I´m playing the first arpeggios up and down...those pivoting licks were giving me major trouble!

If I´ll keep practising I think one day I´ll get it right...cool stuff,yo!
