Man just watch some other videos... for the software, the DAW is Logic Pro X. I think Ola had an Apogee Quartet interface (not sure if he still does), and then just bunch of cool metal amps, usually Hesu 2x12 cab and a SM57. Here you go.... plus that awesome Washburn Solar guitar...

Do you remember that time we made a Per play popular movie theme songs on guitar out of thin air without having played them before? I do. He played the bass and lead lines of John Williams film scores at the same time off the top of his head. So yeah, we all need a Per. He's great to have at parties as well as in the studio.

Sick, that's exactly how I've been doing it. One little piece at a time, then learning it all together for a final take. Doing it section by section lets me focus on writing something interesting and melodical. When I used to try writing solos all at one time by improv, I'd inevitably just wind up running through scales and making super boring solos.

I've been brushing up on theory and it really helps. I'm glad I didn't learn straight theory when I first started, but codifying some aspects of music having played a while is pretty darn helpful to get one out of a rut, or at least get a starting point for a particular sound.

I honestly was hoping you’d explain how you aproach the solo,as in what scale or position you choose to use,and how you figure that out. But obviously this is about recording,not actually how you write/approach the solo itself.Btw-i think you really have strong lead skills.maybe youll be kind enough to reply at least what your go to scale is.

I'm mainly a Riff writer and song arranger. But I just couldn't never could take the time for knowing all by that theory and shit. I usually just have a good starting point to then usual it flows from there . But it's nice to know that I'm not the only one that kinda struggles with this shit . Cause I always just think of leads as icing on the cake.

From my sight of doing stuff... it was a process of first learning the theory and then try to apply what you know on the instrument. Even if it sounds logic, i doesnt realy work for me cause when i started to dream about playn lead guitar i had the fantasy and the energy to put effort in what i do. Now i fell some kinda empty and cant see any progress or... real fun. My Imaginagen just gave up :-(

I could write lead easily (despite my poor techniques), feels like humming, and I know what's going on, but, composing a song is difficult to me somehow.
