I tried for 3 hours to get a good guitar performance on a recording to day and STILL don't have a decent one.
Does anyone else find it hard to engineer the recording and play the guitar too?
It's like I make stupid mIstakes on engineering the recording like not rewinding...
Not arming the track...
Forgetting to turn the monitor amp off..
When I finally do everything right on that part and hit record...it's stupid mistakes on the guitar time
My mind goes blank on what I should be doing on the guitar
Or my pick isn't sitting there...
Or the headphone cord is binding and I'm trying to play all humped over
And of everything is right and I'm playing away...i forget about the stop or kick that's coming up in the song.
Then everything's perfect and I'm so amazed by it that I just completely fall apart on my guitar performance.
SHIT!!!!
Man it is frustrating!
