Funny that you bring that up. Back in the day one of my dirty tricks to get a good track was to never let my friends know I was recording. No pressure, just having fun. Rock on.👍👍🤘✌️

[@MusicWithMarky]

Nice!!!

[@MagicJonesMusic]

I regularly do that for my studio clients, too... And when they say, "Hey, I didn't know you were recording" I say I record everything!

You’re one hell-of-a-teacher, Mark. You have a knack of explaining things to the slow members of the herd, like me.

[@MusicWithMarky]

You ain't slow! I've heard what kind of music you can write!

[@georgecapote6374]

Thanks for the ego boost. I needed that. Love the positive energy on your home planet!

[@MagicJonesMusic]

Rock on, brother!

Cool tips, because I think we've all been there. Nice to see you posting again.

[@MusicWithMarky]

Thanks! It's nice to be back after some time off.

[@paulclarke4099]

Great tips, thank you. I love the term Red Light Syndrome, its perfect 💯😃👍

[@MusicWithMarky]

I honestly couldn't remember if I came up with it or if it was common. Then when I went searching for it I couldn't find anything so I guess it was all mine lol

I like the first part a lot! I too suffer from red light syndrome. I joke that my playing is like quantum physics...it can't be recorded or observed. Soon as I record or someone watches me, my ability goes to trash. I have tried the speed up/slow down thing...and I have discovered that my slop inherent in playing beyond my limit stays with me once I slow down. I like it in theory though and I am sure it works for some.

[@nik_in_the_box]

Thanks for your tipps - I'll try. Actually it's getting worse and worse with the red lighty syndrom... it's really frustrating.....

[@MusicWithMarky]

Hope it helps!!

That's a cool way to get past it, unfortunately not very useful if you're recording a video. I just recorded 80 (yes, 80) takes of a piece I practice everyday and I messed up every single one of them. 😵
Good info tho, cheers

[@MusicWithMarky]

Oh man, I totally hear that! The number of times I have to repeat a piece that I'm teaching in a lesson on a video here when I know it perfectly well...
