Picado exercise

Hi

here is a good exercise for picado. Normaly that exercise is played in triplet with accent on i and then m alternativly (imi mim..) But I propose to play it that way: mimi mimi or imim imim...Not so easy because of the crossing. Anyway I do like that exercise and I wanted to share. Trying to play that at the same speed you play picado on a single string is the challenge and do not forget to play the accent.

Hi
powertab is free, you can downland there. I do not know how to convert in gp but I will see if you want. Now, this exercise is not something extraordinary but do it for 15 minutes and you will see that your picado run is easier..

Hi
here it is in pdf. I hope it works..
This exercise is not extraordinary but if you practice it for15 minutes you will increase your picado run in regularity and speed.
Try to practice at your maximum speed but do not loose the accents as written.
Saludos
