I play bass and I always just listened to the song for 3 hours straight while figuring it out, writing down on makeshift sheet music the parts I got worked out. Could take hours or days depending on the song

Amazing folks can just run it through a program today, slow it down, I bet there is tech that can just, tell you the notes.

Amazing. I still learn manually this way lmao Sometimes I would just be fucking around and hit a spot, and suddenly realize thats part of a song I know, and it would all click into place.

Teaching my son to play guitar/read music this year and the tech today is so good. Hes years ahead of me when I was first starting out.

No tips, cuz I dont know the tech, I'm just impressed how far the tech has come in the last 25 years.
