When first working on the study songs I struggled to confirm my rhythm and timing were correct. Then I discovered a method to check. I record my playing on my iPad with the jam track playing on my desktop computer. Then I would go back and listen to my recording on the iPad. However if I also played David's recording on the desktop while playing my recording on the iPad, syncing up the two I could listen for discrepancies. This would tell me the areas I needed to work on. It also verified my accuracy before submitting it. I would not be surprised if some of you already do this, however I thought it might be a good tip for those of you that had not tried this.
