Hey guys,
What are some things that you do to juggle both musician and engineer roles simultaneously. I'm getting frustrated trying to do both at the same time because then I can't seem to do either very well that way. As an engineer, I miss takes/punches, forget to enable tracks, or record to the wrong track and other various silly mistakes. As a musician, I start giving lackluster performances, or forget progressions and lyrics as I'm distracted by levels, mic placement and the other details of recording.
Are there any techniques, physical or mental, that can help me be more effective at both?
Thanks
Mike
