Rich, this one is definitely an improvement over your previous recording, but your timing is still off. You get behind the beat in the third measure, catch back up to it in the fourth measure, but then get back behind the beat in the fifth measure and remain behind the beat the rest of the way. It's tough to know what to suggest to you on this one. There is a note played on the first beat of every measure in this lead part, and maybe what you should try is taking this piece in small 2 or 3 measure "chunks" and striving to get that note played on the first beat of each measure to hit right on the beat. Stomp your feet or use a metronome while doing this. Counting out all the measures in this one is kind of a bear, and I think you're probably better off to get the timing "by feel".

Rich, another thing you could try is to record it at reduced tempo.

Listening to this version the tempo sounds fast I have set to 120 bbm, maybe I have it set to fast.

Listening to this version the tempo sounds fast I have set to 120 bbm, maybe I have it set to fast. Depends how you are counting this 12/8 time - if you're counting 12 beats for each measure, then I think tempo would be about 124. I tend to count it in fours (four triplet beats per each measure), where the "tempo" would be about 76. I find trying to count 12 beats every measure way too busy, but maybe that's just me... I've seen 12/8 time noted both ways - where tempo is denoted as "eighth note = #BPM" and as "dotted quarter note = #BPM". Kind of makes it confusing. Bruce
