Liquid Tension Experiment File - Please Review

Re: Liquid Tension Experiment File - Please Review

nah dude, you can always count on me for constructive critisism

I pretty much got better by people telling me mah **** was horrible, I hope it works out for you

Actually it works quite well for me. Same goes with bodybuilding. You know what Arnold did when his calves were too small? He only wore shorts so people would make fun of them. It worked.

so here's the thing with lte or dream theater

1. find a good song
2. find a steppable segment (this is actually quite hard)
3. figure out how you want to do your sync (planning is crucial, believe it or not)
4. do the sync
5. place your patterns, keeping in mind your layering, your own expressive style, and remember to stay in sync

and then hope for the best. even then you'd probably still have to be pretty lucky

Seems like just finding the correct segment is extremely hard. I didn't do too well there. Towards the end layering was complete crap nomatter what I did. I think I should have just stepped drums there. Or even better: chose a better segment.

I have a new appreciation for GLoVE's work now. I won't give up though. I can step DT. I just gotta find an unstepped segment with great potential that would permit fluent layering as well.
