I’ve never seen that compressor before. Very cool!

When I imagine myself being happy with a bandmate during a show, I imagine these habits:

-know the songs’ chords, hits, pushes, etc

-silently tune between songs

-have awareness of when the singer is singing

-smile

None of that requires a lot of skill. And when I think about it, I didn’t do any of those things when I first joined a band, so you’re probably already as qualified as I was.
