devinebass Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 "How do I play faster!!!???" - I get asked this question A LOT by students. In these two tutorials I show you an easy exercise to help you start breaking your lines down in to bite size chunks, which in turn helps you learn the right physical movements to get the job done. Remember... The slower you go, the faster your brain will find and assign the correct movement program to your fingers. Slow at first, then little by little crank up the speed. Make sure you are VERY observant of what your right hand is doing.

Horizontalste Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I've had a look around Scott's site and to be honest Its highlighted just how lazy I have become and how many bad habits I've picked up over the years. I'l be "in the shed" for a while sorting it out....... Cheers Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your fingers have a maximum speed and can only move so far in a given time so it stands to reason that the less you move them to execute a particular note, the more notes you can fit in in a given time .
