Recently I made a post about tips for doing it, implementing them and just putting in practice I can very roughly sing my favourite songs. After the first one it was slightly easier to start with another. Helps that I listen to punk and the original vocalist can't sing either.

Holy shit that feels amazing, I feel like a goddamn rockstar on the kitchen sized stage, even if I can barely sing and my playing suffers when I do, but feels damn good. Just wanted to share a bit of my enthusiasm is all, if anyone here is thinking about trying it, go for it, what a dopamine rush.

Hi, I have connected my trusty UMC202HD to my phone and tried to play some Rs, but the audio is unbearably distorted.

The phone and interface seem to do fine on their own, I can listen to music, talk over a microphone, call people, etc. without an issue. However, the moment I open up rocksmith everything gets distorted to hell and back.

I tried looking for help, but everyone is troublesho their PCs, not phones, so... any ideas?

Practice, I know, but what would be the best way to structure it?

So basically I'm into some good ol' punk, which often requires nothing fancy, just the straight 8s at a fast tempo for basically the whole song. I start well enough, but throughout the song and I get tired, I get sloppy, would like to change that.

So what kind of practice would help me out with that the most, some mindless chugging to a metronome and gradually go faster, some kind of low-high intensity training like I'd do for running, just practice the songs over and over again?

I've got the time, I've got the will, just hoping that some better brains than mine would come up with ways to be efficient about it, haha

Hooray, the summer is coming!

I do enjoy playing a bit outside, the warmth of the sun and the coldness of a beer, wanted to get something nice to help myself with that.

I don't mean like outside gigs, just me and some backing tracks, what would be a good setup for that? Need something somewhat capable and robust, as I'd like to play by the seaside as well. A mini amp like something from positive grid, a battery powered PA speaker, a headphone amp and a Bluetooth speaker with an aux in, something else? I would have to carry everything on my back, so nothing too big.

What do you guys think could do the job?
