There's not going to be a tutorial for the exact result someone has in their head, yes. That doesn't mean there aren't resources to learn the tools and techniques, so that a person can understand how to achieve their desired result.
We don't tell people to just throw some vegetables in a pan and expect ratatouille; or to pick up a trumpet and presto, they play jazz.
- Jasper_ 4y agoNo, but you can't expect to read a recipe and suddenly make five-star dishes either. Familiarity, practice and technique are all part of the learning process, and they're things that tutorials can't help you with. You can hire as many music teachers as you want, but unless you sit there practicing your scales and arpeggios for days at a time to build familiarity with your instrument, you're not going to sound like Miles Davis. Plenty of other people gave links to tutorials, and those are all fine. I wanted to emphasize that this is a skill that takes time, effort, a good amount of practice, and play to get comfortable with. I think too many people are scared of learning a skill, and want tutorials to guide them through the process. There was a post a week ago about an app trying to teach people how to cook by asking them to find a picture of a "scrambled egg" in a line-up. Obviously useless, and that doesn't get people any closer to what actually needs to happen -- just pick up a pan and try. No, you won't get it right the first time. Nobody does. That's what the practice is for. Start by actually starting.
