A few DKC songs

Hey, I tabbed that second

Hey, I tabbed that second song once! I guess I forgot to upload it . . . and now I can't find it.

Anyway, those 9s in the first measure should be 10s. The 21 bend to 22 should be 20 to 22. You're also missing a number of bends (or slides, if you prefer) in the second-to-last bar.

EDIT: I mean, in Aquatic Ambiance. I haven't looked at the other tab yet.

Last four bars of the first tab look good. You might want to look at the first two bars again.

Hey, sorry I haven't been on in a few days, and my browser keeps f'ing up. I actually did suspect it was 20 to 22 but wasn't totally sure. Well I think I was able to locate the bends, wouldn't that also change the measure before it though too? Let me know if I got it right, thanks for taking a look.

I think it sounds better with slides than bends.

Post an updated rockface rumble when you get a chance!

Ok thanks for the clarification. Slides do sound better, I had trouble picking out that first one. As far as Rockface Rumble, did I get any part of the first two bars correct?

This is what it sounds like

Well, if you cheat(*), and

Well, if you cheat(*), and isolate the channels, you hear that it's like this on one channel:

e|--20----18b19--20------------------16b18---17---------------------|
B|---------------------18b20~-------------------16b17---------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------pb17r16---|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A second channel has the same thing, but delayed. It's like a delay effect, with mix at 50%, so they're the same volume. So, the way it's originally composed, there's only 16b17 there. But most of the notes are long, so the echo blurs together. The 16b17 is short, and has a silence after it, so you hear two of them.

Notice I added a 17 on the E string. That note is harder to hear because the echo blurs across it, but if you isolate it, then it's obvious.

Isolated, 50% speed
Isolated with echo, 50% speed

(*) No such thing as cheating, except that if you use tools like this, it won't help with ear training as much.

I do now, but when I wrote that comment, it was vague because I was feeling too lazy to check the actual notes ;-)

I could elaborate: It's up to

I could elaborate:

It's up to you how you want to interpret that information. Like, since that gap makes the 16b17 in the echo sound like a separate note, you can write 16b17 twice. You don't have to write it exactly how it was in the original. So like, for example, because the 17 is obscured and the 16b17 echoes, you could write it exactly like HSL had it.

I'm just supplying more information is all, not telling you what the tab has to look like :-)

Well, obviously we want it to be accurate. In my lame and uneducated opinion, I would put it like hsl has it :P

So I guess we're going with what I wrote. I will add the prebend from auri's version at the end
