otzepengParticipant@Andrew: Thx for your friendly feedback. The bendings are one of some more issues since i blow the dust of my Tenor Uke and restringed it low g (maybe it still falls out of tune a bit faster as i recognized 🤔). It’s also a long time ago since i recorded everything directly via pickup and daw – you can hear everything very clearly …. for good and for bad.
I hope for another challenge in low g – so i can practice on those issues! 🤗April 27, 2025 at 5:04 pm in reply to: Participate in the April 2025 Member Challenge – WIN $2,250 Kanile’a Ukulele #73540

Heyho Rockclass,
i also let the april smile 😊
A sunny tune, that was definitly joyful to play, thx Andrew and also Evan for the lesson.
I really enjoyed your entries this month so far – you’re all did so great!March 20, 2025 at 3:27 pm in reply to: Participate in the March 2025 Member Challenge – Rewind & Replay! #66184
otzepengParticipantThank you for the friendly feedback (as always ☺️)I’ve got not much experience with daw’s, plugins etc. It’s more like: “Uhhh, whats that? Yeah – sounds nice! … And this here? Yes – sweet! ….and so on. It’s definitly fun to play around with all those effects and i’m sure, that i’ll use it more in the future but i will take more time and care for “natural sounding” results.

otzepengParticipantHeyho Rockclass,
here comes my fresh attempt of “Always with me”.
It stills such a joyful tune and i think i reached my settled goals by playing it. I put some effects over it, i think it suites the song.It’s great to see how time and practice effects in everyones playing here and thrilling to hear your tunes from the past in a “new-spring-dress”.

otzepengParticipantHeyho Rockclass,
it’s one year ago that i tryed to play Stevens wonderful arrangement. Many issues left to improve: steady tempo, steady Hammer-ons and Pull-offs, playing verse 2 correct …. best requirements for the actual challenge. I also want to “roll” the chords because i worked for some time at technique and here*s the chance to try it out.
Here’s my original post from 27.2.2024

otzepengParticipantHeyho Rockclass,
i’d running out of time but i worked hard to get this wonderful tune down and i want to share it. It’s definitly not in my League but absolute fun to play! 😃
I’m very thankful to be introduced to the wonderful cosmos of Roy Smeck.Andrew …. If i see the actual march-challenge ( … i know, what to choose for ) and imagine you do this again in one year i definitly would return to the future with this song.
I was flashed about all the great entries last month – you all did it great!

otzepengParticipant” I won’t lie, I chuckled the moment I heard your fury friend sing, lol!” … me too just in the moment i wrote this down. Thx for your Feedback. I’m still work on the tune and the Video and hope to finish it before Christmas.

Hohoho Rockclass,
I had a lot planned but unfortunately didn’t manage to edit a video with my furry singing friend.
The song was definitely a real challenge… and then singing it…😅 Since I had only learned the verses, the tempo was right for them, but I couldn’t manage it for the solo.
I send warm hugs to the whole community here. I thank you for all the kindness and the great exchange and I thank @Andrew (and all the other fantastic teachers) for this fantastic platform, which keeps challenging my passion for the instrument and thus allows it to grow steadily.
I’m giving $20 to the Ukulele Kids Club
A peaceful Christmas and a great start to the new year to you all,
Markus

otzepengParticipantThank you very much for the kind (and honest 😂) words. Maybe it would have been better to record each part separately and not the whole tune, but that was the goal I had set for myself. Now I’ve hammered it into my fingers so many times that i’ll never forget this etude.☺️
By the way, it was at 165 and not 156 bpm as i wrote … crazy!November 27, 2024 at 2:06 pm in reply to: Participate in the November 2024 Member Challenge – WIN $3,100 Kanile’a #64612
otzepengParticipant@ryanuke:
I hope you read this here as soon as possible.
You took part with a Christmastune but in November it has to be a Fingerpicking Etude – you can reach them fast by a link in the opening post by Andrew.I think you can do it in time, good luck!

Heyho Rockclass,
What fantastic contributions from all of you this month! Wow!
I started out learning Evans’ wonderful Etude no. 22. Then I decided to move a little out of my comfort zone and moved on to Etude no. 9.
What can I say? Now I had my challenge…
My goal was to do it in one take. Unfortunately I couldn’t do it without making a mistake – let alone hitting the horrible 156 bpm in the third part…
A great thanks- or friendsgiving to everyone who celebrates it,
Markus
