Q:  10.20.19  5:55 pm Thanks for the tips, Bill!  I'm currently having some fun writing my song and it may be up on YouTube soon, but I haven't decided the length. Would 7 or 8 seconds work? Or does it need to be 2 seconds? Thanks! -Misha
A: you can try 7 or 8, but, if you are still feeling overwhelmed, don't forget that you always have the option of actually dialing it back to 1 second. the advantages here are ridiculous. you will finish it very quickly, freeing up time to do 3, 4, 5 second or more. you learn things every time you finish a song, so 1 second means almost instantaneous learning. if you are feeling frozen like you can't do anything and you're confused and can't learn anything, just try something shorter. eventually you will go from learning nothing to learning everything, extremely quickly. and then increase the length from there. it's like going up a staircase. very easy, if you actually start at the bottom
