The first guy just picks the same song really fast. Now, if he could compose something decent out of that picking, I'd listen.

Search for Burning in Hell on YouTube, it's the Power Metal band he's in...

...And you thought DragonForce were the fastest?

(Also, for me, the both are awesome, but even if you don't like "StudioForce" as Mon01 told me, listen to them, because Mon01 liked BiH, he even fretted one song for A|M|H...)

DF playes those 16th note solos at 200 bpm.

[Kotti]

Not an official record yet, but this guy is faster.



He plays guitar in Envinity which I think is wrong because fast guitar sections were the reason why I didn't like their newest album that much.

>420 BPM

wat.

Also fast != good. That's probably why you didn't like it.

[Kotti]

That's 40 notes per second.

[thebocaj]

That's 40 notes per second.

There's a new one? Good thing I hadn't already charted Tiago Della Vega's one at 370bpm or whatever.

[Rapt0r]

Didn't he just do 600 BPM? Wouldn't that be 60 notes per second? Also HOLY DUCKING POOP HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?! THE ONLY THING STOPPING HIM FROM GOING HIGHER WAS HIS METRONOME NOT BEING FAST ENOUGH! IF HE GOES ANY FASTER THERE WON'T EVEN BE TIME FOR THE STRINGS TO VIBRATE!

Also, chart this.

[thebocaj]

Also, chart this.

Your wish is my command. (Was already going to anyway)

[Kotti]

Flight of the Bumblebee consists of 16th notes (afaik) so there are 4 notes per beat.

([Notes per beat] x [BPM]) / 60 seconds = Notes per second
So
(4x600)/60 = 40

[Rapt0r]

lolwat? Wouldn't 16th notes be MORE notes per second and not less?

[Kotti]

Yeah, if those were 8th notes there would only be 2 notes per beat.

Duck, I can't do basic math. I thought my number sounded ridiculously high.
