Practicing Tips

'You Are My Sunshine' is not just a wonderful piece of folk and popular music, it's also a great song to learn on the mandolin. Offering tablatures in Simple, Intermediate, and Advanced Styles, this learning resource provides you an opportunity to explore the song in-depth. This medium-tempo, vocal song is a classic that every mandolin player should have in their repertoire.

One of the unique features about Tunefox is the Lick Switcher that allows you to enrich your musical vocabulary and enable you to perceive the song in different ways. You can switch licks for individual measures, bringing you an array of variations to play with and personalize the song to suit your style. Simply tap a measure to unearth its hidden musical surprises!

The Arrange slider is another handy tool that sets your desired difficulty level with utmost precision. Sliding it to the left will present you with a simplified, basic arrangement by subtracting the fill-in notes. Meanwhile, a slide to the right will grant you a denser, full arrangement of the song filled with numerous extra notes.

The Tempo slider is also essential for mastering this piece. It lets you adjust the speed of the song to suit your comfort level and gradually increases as you get familiar with the tune. Try starting at a pace that doesn't strain you and then gradually speed up as your finger dexterity and timing improve.

Incorporate playing alongside backing tracks into your learning process for a fun and rewarding experience. Select certain measures and repeat them to perfection. The 'Speed Up' function will incrementally heighten the tempo, making it easier for you to reach higher speeds without feeling overwhelmed.

Remember, mastering a song is a journey. Start slow, and make small but steady strides. The key is to stay persistent and keep experimenting with different interpretations of the song through the Lick Switcher and Arrange Slider. Happy playing!
