How To Use JamTrack Zone
JamTrack Zone has huge and growing collection of free guitar backing tracks but it's way more than just that. If you've ever felt overwhelmed when trying to practice soloing or improvising JamTrack Zone has tools to make your practice more manageable and effective.
Here's what you'll see in the video
- Auto Changing Fretboard Diagrams: As the backing track plays, you'll see how the fretboard diagram dynamically updates to show the correct scale notes for each chord in the chord progression which gives you a steady visual of what notes to play at any moment.
- Focused Fretboard View: I show you how the JamTrack Zone online guitar learning software allows you to hide parts of the guitar fretboard visual, allowing you to focus on just a specific fret span or, if you're practicing linear playing you can hide all but a specific set of strings. This helps you reduce the overwhelm of seeing every note of a scale or arpeggio on every string of the fretboard diagram, making it easier to concentrate on learning the area of the guitar neck you want to learn today.
- Loop Any Section: I also show you how to loop specific sections of a backing track. This feature is especially useful when you want to drill a tricky scale transition. By looping, you can focus on these challenging areas and make faster progress.
- Unique Backing Tracks for Every Key: This feature is all about reducing practice fatigue. I show you how each infinitely looping track in JamTrack Zone is a unique recording, not just a pitch-shifted version of the same track. Once you've practiced a particular chord progression in one key, switch to another key and you'll hear a fresh version of the progression. This gives you a more authentic and varied practice experience.
