Guys, u know in guitar pro sometimes they hav some notes which r Xs? E.g.

--3--3--3--(3)--x-x--3--3--3--(3)--x-x--, wat r the Xs? and the brackets too. wat r they? thx for the info :wink:

 

[markedymark]

brackets are like shadow notes, and x's are mutes.

 

[sleepykitty]

shadow notes are also called 'ghost' notes

 

[Heyn]

If yours is GP5, it should show a 'p.m' above the notation bar if its a palm mute.

 

[shinobi]

eh, pm and x is different

pm has a note played underneath. i think gp4 oso have. x is muted, totally dead

 

[marcoweeo]

i get the p.m. one, but i dont know to to execute the total mute note. which part do u mute the string? fretboard? bridge?

 

[suckasucks]

just touch the string with your left hand so that no note is played. use more then 2 fingers or there might be some unwanted harmonics.

[marcoweeo]

that would be real cheesy..... hahaha :wink: thks tho!

 

[marcoweeo]

i 4gt 2 ask, wats shadow note?

 

[shinobi]

(3) is a ghost note, or shadow note as you have mentioned, and its simply the note, played SOFTER.

something to do with dynamics, which is a stylo milo way of saying how loud the music should be played at a particular point of the song

the whole point of having ghost notes and mutes is to add some funkyness to the groove

so i hope you will be funky

 

[marcoweeo]
