Should barré chords have an acute accent on the E? If you're using a Mac, it's Alt+E, then the e again. Alt+130 on the numpad for PC. |

In Apple Logic 9, what are “GM Device” tracks? They do, yes. But I'd rather they opened on Software Instrument tracks so that I can add instruments to them, if possible. |

Finding the “Starting point” when creating a composition or score I did consider doing so, but I wanted to leave it open. I write a lot of things, from technical death metal through to sweeping orchestral stuff, through to little poppy electronic ditties. I'm a believer that there's a commonality to composition that crosses genres, so I didn't limit this to just one. |

Memorising the fretboard when using dropped tunings? This is largely what I had been doing, but no, thankfully no bandmates at this point in time ;) |

Finding a balance point learning to pick a guitar at a right angle? It's a more direct attack on the string. Picking at a 45 degree angle gives a more "scraping" sound on the string, and also makes playing at high speeds trickier since there's more of a horizontal offset being applied via that diagonal friction. That's my rationale. |

Finding a balance point learning to pick a guitar at a right angle? I'm not playing blues, so the whole "digging in" angle thing just isn't working for me. Picking straight is something I feel would really improve my technique so I'm asking for specific help on how to make it happen. |

Finding a balance point learning to pick a guitar at a right angle? I'm sorry, I got perpendicular and parallel confused, I mean picking directly across the string, not holding the pick at a right-angle from it. My mistake! |

Finding a balance point learning to pick a guitar at a right angle? I'm changing the pick orientation from at a 45 degree angle to at a right angle from the strings, and the question relates to arm movement in that position. Apologies if it was unclear. |
