I wrote a rhythm guitar progression yesterday I was unreal happy with but I didn’t record it and now it’s gone!

@ambergrey Aaargh, annoying! I'd suggest jotting down the date just in case someone invents time travel, but like, they won't.
@Scott I actually enjoy that possibility though, such a nice way to utilize time travel
-
@ambergrey Ooof, I’m sorry, I hope it comes back to you! I always write everything down now, I learned that lesson the hard way after having the same thing happen multiple times
Also been thinking about getting one of those little portable Tascam recorders for quickly recording something.@ruverb I am so on board with the Tascam idea. They are such little creativity machines! Ella Feingold just did a whole solo guitar album on one

@ambergrey It’ll come back. And if it doesn’t, another one will appear in its place. Creativity is endless!

@ambergrey @ruverb I am strongly considering the Tascam / zoom recorder, but mostly to get more quality. Until then, my mobile is full with solos, riffs and what not. At least an entire song came from one of the recordings.

Bruce Springsteen recorded Nebraska on a PortsStudio 144 I believe. Al Yankovic did some of his work on one as well. You probably don’t need anything super fancy, if you have an iPhone the builtin Voice Memo app would probably work. Just something to give you an audio record that works as a reminder. -

@ambergrey capturing is the first step of the creative process

@karschsp I really hope it comes back Steve, I was so excited about it. I had to leave to do something so I thought “ok I’ll shape this out more later!!” Then…it was gone!

@mewbassprr @ruverb anything to get it down and shared, but yeah I also want one

@kai I don’t know what I was thinking, it was hubris to say to myself I’d just pick it up in the evening. It was already too late!!

Although if its for capturing an idea, then it doesn't really matter so much. -

@ambergrey sometimes when that happens to me I try to mentally retrace my steps…especially if I’m able to remember one or two of the chords, I can maybe recall the rest.

@karschsp I’m going to try again in a bit to remember

@ambergrey @GuitarSith @ruverb Sign me up, too - I always wanted one, ever since I was a teen 🤩
