Re: Practice idea for those not-a-band bands
Sounds like you guys are having fun + making some nice gains - good for you!
I bought a lil Tascam DR-05 digital recorder a while back and use it for that sort of this as well, tho looks like you've figured out a nice homegrown solution that kept $100 in your pocket- nice. It IS great to be able to "sit in the audience of your own playing." You wonder how people got past these sticky spots before that. I guess that's one reason why there were fewer good musicians- I find really "hearing what it sounds like" while playing to be a REALLY elusive skill.
It's a recurring comment, that when somebody is feeling "plateau'd" in some way, and they find a way to listen to it, they pretty much always hear + find new things that are both productive + real rewarding.
do it!
