Awesome progress at both 1 week and 2.5 years! I know I wasn't nearly this good at either of these points. An easy thing to improve for now is try to remember to keep your left elbow nice and lifted. I still have an issue with this after playing decades if I'm tired, haha. But it does help to get a better angle on the strings.
Awesome! Did you have previous experience with other instruments? I'm 30, and I play the piano to a decent higher-intermediate level, and I've been thinking about picking up the cello!
Thank you, I've lost 65lbs in a year! In this video I'm using one of the 3Sigma French Cello IRs run through a Line 6 Pod Go with some reverb and a touch of delay. I also had a room mic to catch a little of the unamplified sound.
@@fromwithin8916 65lbs that s impressive, I still have some to lose this year ( took me 2 years to lose half of that). Is there a large sound difference once IR is applied between your cheap electric cello and your Yamaha ?
@@damien2198 Hi, I don't have the cheap electric cello anymore. The sound difference between the cheap one and the Yamaha is already massive. The IR pack came with hundreds of variations, so you have to pick the right sample rate (48kHz for the Pod Go) and then experiment with them to find what works. A lot of them sound quite muffled, so you need to tweak the EQ a bit to make it clearer/warmer, a bit of gain, a bit of compression, and it makes a big difference.
@@fromwithin8916 By the way, did you just reduce your food intake or went to something like water fasting or carnivore diet to achieve that awesome result?
That sound in the first week that’s awesome(I’m a violin player so I sounded like a dying cat in my first week)
Thank you, I'm not sure what I was doing with the raised pinkie, though 😂
A really good sound for the first week
Thank you, this was after 30 hours on a rented cello 😀

Sounds good! I think you can bow more though. It will brighten your tone and especially for this song make the quavers sound nicer
Hi I want to self learn cello too should I buy used cello or new one, can you help?
Good vibrato.
How often do you practice?
In good weeks, 1-3 hours a day; in bad weeks, 1-3 hours all week.
Nice progress but the classical cello and the electric is not a fair comparison together

@@fromwithin8916 Thank you. Which pack are you using ? French cello form Sigma?

Can you share the type of cello you are using 2.5 years in?
Yamaha SVC-210. A beautiful instrument ❤️
Me after playing the violin years and yeeeears..: "Nope!" :D
No, it's not an omelet to be 2.5 weeks old! 😅 I've been playing for a year now and I'm making it worse!😂😂😂
Really electro cello ?? 😢
pretty good for an adult learner for 2.5 years. clean shifts, okay vibrato.. good job!
It's really bad to 2.5y ...
Let's see your progress, then, buddy.
