Ok so here I am making a very humbling post for me....
As a guitar player I come from a long line of players in my family but.... for some dumb reason I was never shown any timing... I learned licks leads chords styles and sounds but not timing.... never crossed my mind for years and then I got out in the real working world of music and learned that I had "bad timing" what was that?
Turns out nobody ever has told me was a measure is or what beats are or what times are....
I understand very rough basics of timing as in....
120 BPM means 4/4 time but...
But now that my band is getting looked at in a way that could head us into a large areana market with our act, also with the coming studio sessions it would seem like A REALLY GOOD PLACE TO START LEARNING ABOUT TIMING!
Can anybody teach me what this is all about and give tips about setting up click tracks?
I have Audacity which can make a click track for me that can be ported into Tracktion as an .OGG/MP3/WAV file or I can program on to play in Tracktion in the background... I like the file idea better.
Can someone please help me learn this?
one really embarrassed musician.
