Taking the slow road
after seeing on the wave display how messy my drumming was and not consistently messy, so I couldn't just shift it all a little to align it with the click, I decided to try to improve and practice with the metronome.
I don't wanna edit every beat, nor do i want to loop a lot since it quickly starts to sound mechanical... I also tried sampling 5 snare hits, 5 kik, 5 HH, open closed, some crash, but still obviously programmed, also tried EZ drummer, better, but still too much programming etc.
but now I feel like I have to completely re-learn playing, or learn the play right for the first time, more likely because I can't play for long on the click of the metronome.
I try to obscure the click sound so that I know I'm completely on it, it's a weird feeling because doing that means that I have to feel it, as soon as i hear the click a little bit, I know I'm drifting off.
It's very weird since it's so hard to do for any length of time and it gets worse with each limb, and impossible with any combinations. At first I could only do it with my right hand on snare, then half the time with left, some with RH & HH, and maybe one hit only one time on 3rd session with kik, and never yet with left foot. But up to a few measures now ok with left & RH snare. Any progress at all is encouraging since it's so hard to do, I'm using eighths and any full kit pattern is a mess. obviously not my first instrument.
Anyway, does this sound right as a beginner?
