I was enjoying the coughing background noise but some guy in a suit playing a badass guitar keeps interrupting it and it is very annoying :\

@ArashAhmadiGuitar 5 лет назад

There's always someone coughing - I suspect all coughing people love classical guitar or perhaps that doctor's prescription!...

@WilliamJohnston 3 года назад

Thanks for the kind words, the tone of the guitar with just the close mic didn’t represent the sound of the guitar in the room at all, it was a compromised choice either way and the background noise was still picked up with the close mic! 🤷‍♂️

@WilliamJohnston Год назад

Thank you very much! I would say it comes down to how prepared you feel. In general I would advise playing material that you are completely in control of, and practise playing it a lot (eg every day for a month) once you have decided on the exact right hand fingering, left hand fingering, exact sitting position etc, so that you are as consistent as possible, so that once you’re performing, you’ve already played it correctly >100+ times!
