thank you @andy_e and @marisa. It is bit of work

First I recorded a backing track with metronome as a video. I used the one from guitartabs.

This is a foundation for editing the later parts.

Than I record the rythm/fingerpicking part. Uploaded this to YouTube. This allows me to play it back, so I can play along and record a new ‘layer’.

Later added the melody. Not in one take, but in 3 short pieces to keep it within my abilities 🙂

I edit these videos on my phone using an app called kinemaster, witch is a bit like iMovies for android.

And yes this takes time. But for me it is a great way to learn more about timing, song structure and melody/scales all in just one ‘project’.

So the hardware is: Guitar (Furch OM LG with a K&K pure mini pickup)

Plugged into: Yamaha THR10c practice amp, plugged directly into my android phone with USB-C.

Smartphone (Galaxy Note 8)

Software: OpenCamera and Kinemaster

Very nice, compact setup. Not studio quality, but works great for me.
