Well, you can do it in guitar pro, however i'm not familiar enough with the program to succeed, also it's a very expensive program, so unless you wanna violate copyrights that should be your backup plan.

there was a tutorial over at ultimate guitar on how to make your own drum track with FL studio... I'm not sure on chordies cross-site linking rules. but if you google for fl backing track ultimate guitar you get it at the top of the results

I've been puckering and blowing all day, so im a bit out of air now and gonna play some guitar for a while... but i think its coming along..

damn zurf, if i could kiss you i would. All the hostility towards beginners has made me afraid to ask things. Got home today and waiting for my bro to get home see if we can riff something out. dont have a halo so can't do it myself..

Maybe i should just get myself a program that you can just set the chord progress and the BPM and then just improvise along to it to feel more at home on the harmonica

Also, What would you say is the best way to get a clean note out of it? I haven't really got the toungeblocking tech working, seeing how i'm not entirely sure how to do it, and I'm not really keen on slabbering all over my instruments.

I pretty much do the whole puckering thing, but i'm a loudmouth so it's hard to get it accurate Tips are appreciated, I've watched alot of youtube videos to try and get the techniques done but either they're bad at explaining or I'm just not getting it right...

Sorry for another wall of text!

love, Numri

Hey guys, thanks for all the nice comments.. the good thing about my harmonica is that it's a 2-row harmonica and 20 holes wide (holes go draw/blow/draw/blow and so on..) So its like a regular 10holer but wider. Separates them a bit from eachother so i dont have to worry about blowing 4 notes at a time

I don't really have alot of "harmonica inspirations" right now. I dont listen to alot of harmonica-playing musicians. but i like the fact that it's a good instrument to bring with you, and when you're chilling on the beach theres no better compliment to the accoustic guitar.

There was a swedish musician called Cornelis vreeswijk. And his music is just perfect to play on a harmonica along a guitar. I'll have to make a youtube vid someday

Anyway, i also have a melody maker harmonica, i read it was great for beginners but its actually confusing me because the scale is way different. i learned to play along to House of the rising sun with this vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj_3EyHs4ck) including the improvisation at the end, so i dont think i'm completly hopeless.. My most questions have been answered and i feel very welcome here

Do you guys think i should get a G harp? I somehow got the idea that C was the key you could play "most songs" (a terrible term).

What about Chromatics? Do they just go a Halfstep down/up? I got the idea they had many different keys... I should do my homework :S maybe i should try one of those....

What I want to achieve with my playing is mostly, improvisation along some acoustic chords to make it sound mellow and possible get a melody out of it.. I have no intention of starting a big band and go to the stage Just for my own and my closest environment enjoyment..

Sorry this post is a bit long... I was watching some music video with Rihanna on mtv..... she's very distracting.. and with the Mute on it's actually quite enjoyable....

anyway, Thanks
Numri.
