Practice tips

Maximize your learning experience by using the special features on the Tunefox platform. The Lick Switcher is a key tool, allowing you to add new licks to your repertoire, change licks for individual measures, and explore multiple song interpretations. Adding this personalized element to your learning can give your performance a unique flavor while expanding your musical knowledge. Simply tap the measure to uncover the hidden licks.

The Arrange slider is another helpful feature on Tunefox. By sliding it left, you can simplify the song arrangement by removing the “fill-in” notes, ideal for getting a grasp of the fundamental tune. Slide it right and you get a full song arrangement with all those extra notes to improve your proficiency. Take control of your learning pace by using the tempo slider to change the song's speed.

Enhance your practical skills by playing along with the backing tracks. It not only makes your practice more enjoyable but also prepares you for real-time jamming sessions. Chose selected measures to repeat and gradually increase their tempo using the 'Speed Up' function. Starting at a comfortable speed and gradually building up will lead to a smooth transition to higher speeds.

Learning 'Wagon Wheel', or any song, is a journey of discovery and practice. Take full advantage of the innovative tools available from Tunefox to make your journey enjoyable and productive every step of the way.
