So I am beginner / intermediate & learning a few manageable cover tunes to play with other musicians. I use "Moises" to play the track we're learning when not with the other people I play with so can switch on/off the drums & a metronome track.
Lately I've been practicing in 3 ways:-
(1) with everything including the drum track (so I can hear when I'm missing something) and a metronome track.
(2) I also practice with vocals & other instrument but no drum track but with the metronome and
(3) finally I practice with vocals & other instruments but no drum track & no metronome track & hope that I finish when the song does.
I'm wondering what peoples thoughts are on the amount of each type of practice I should do as I progress:
(A) when learning the tune & that tune is new to me for playing on the drums
(B) getting closer to a practice session with the other people I'm playing the tunes with and
(C) near ready for a performance night, (when we just play tunes at a pub jam).
Thoughts for how best to mix things up to learn most effectively?
