Hey man! Fresh patreon here. :) Since I have no idea, how this all works (first time), I apologize in advance, if I'm doing some weird stuff here. ;) I'll get it. Love your videos since years! My question would be: What would be the best way to overcome the problem of changing strings (alternate picking) with a downstroke (lower to higher string). Often times, I miss the string and all following strokes are messed up of course. I'm very aware of pick slanting. I guess, I've always done it subconciously. But since Troy Grady, I started to overthink it and problems like this one occured. Thanks, Ben! :)

I've got a sloppy pinky that needs some taming. I've done the 4 note chromatic up and down keeping each finger latched until it's time to move it. Torture going up, but easy for me going back down. Any ideas?
