Greetings. I’ve been watching the Antigravity series and some of the talking the code stuff, where Troy discusses the mechanics of these two players, in the MAB mechanics, he is mainly a DSX player when he does descending phrases, so it’s very noticeable how he rotates the wrist to be able to get an upstroke escape when doing ascending phrases. So does he switch to a DBX system at that point? Is that rotation movement that he does and that Troy mentions part of a DBX escape motion system? Is it an upward pickslant that makes this motion much more noticeable even at fast speeds? Is it only a wrist motion to be able to get that brief upstroke escape?
And now for Gilbert, he is discussed as having basically a zero degree pickslant, which would allow him to again, do DBX, but much less noticeably than MAB, infact, it’s impossible to see pretty much, except with the magnet and slow motion right? But we know he also has some sort of DSX mode when he does the classic Gilbert exercise. So basically a DBX motion is a must for three notes per string alternate picking playing? Both these players seem to have a DBX mode which allows them to do this three note per string, or an uneven number of notes per string alternate picking playing.
