Pretty simple, but that's how it goes for me

QUOTE (Marius Pop @ Jun 4 2014, 03:38 AM)  That's great, Cosmin! Relaxation is the key! Ben, I know what you're saying! Hahaha!  Scott Henderson said he'd wait for two weeks after recording something, focus on anything else and only then listen to what he'd recorded to analyze it as objective as possible!  Yes, listen to the music you actually made ... not your intent. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Sometimes (many times) when I'm going to record a guitar track for someone else they usually ask if I'd like to hear the demo or the rough track. I always say "yes, send me an mp3" (or whatever - soundcloud, youtube, etc.). I only listen to it for 'form' - verse, chorus, bridge - the chords and if there's a signature riff or line. I don't work out too many parts because I have found that the artist and/or producer may have a completely different concept than what I was thinking. [For me] it's much harder to un-learn (un-hear) and then figure out something new than it is to just go in and make guitar parts (with the artist/producer) on the fly. *In fact I prefer them to not send me anything.
This actually happened yesterday. I was called sort of 'last minute' to record a baritone guitar part for a band I have played gigs with for a few months. The song to be recorded was one I had done a couple of times but the writer/singer/leader wanted to change the part for the bari. I had to quickly readjust my concept. I like doing that but it was definitely a little stressful (for me). This post has been edited by klasaine: Jun 10 2014, 03:47 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

This is an interesting topic. I like Marius trick of trying to focus on the "joy" side of playing while we are recording. It can be tricky at first but I think that it can be achieved with practice. In my case, I'm with Ben about this, I usually play better without the camera, I need to record more takes when I'm filming compared to when I'm just playing the track. I experiment this when I record my GMC lessons.
It would be cool to create a list of tricks and ideas to fool our mind, don't you think so? -------------------- My lessons
