how do you close the gap between the music in your head and what actually comes out?

i hear things very specifically.

depth. frequency. the space between elements that creates tension without announcing it.

what something is doing underneath. what it appears to be doing.

i have always heard this way.

i thought everyone did.

they don't.

i can listen to something and tell you exactly what it's made of. what it's trying to do. where it succeeds and where it almost does.

but when i try to make what i hear into something real the gap between the internal version and the external version is significant.

i want to know

if this is a skill problem.

a tools problem.

a patience problem.

or if the internal version is always better tban the real one and that's just what it is to make something.

does the gap close.

i need to know

if the gap closes.
