I count the changes myself and then manually enter the number.

I have the same problem and I follow the same as Moose.

I have to count my own as well & I’m playing plenty loud!

Hi James!!

Welcome to the Justin Guitar Community. This is a great place to come for answers to all kinds of questions. I have found the Community to be a great resource for learning as well as cyber-socialising a bit. . . so you’ve come to the right place.

As the others have said on this thread, it’s a really great habit to get into counting OUT LOUD the beats for your chord changes. Not clear WHY it works so well but it certainly does. So give it a try by starting slowly and counting out a simple four beats to the bar chord change, i.e. the 1-2-3-4 of each bar or measure. That way, you take the ipad out of the equation a bit, something you’ll need to do as you progress in your playing anyway.

Hope you are enjoying your guitar journey so far. If you have a minute, you might use the “Introduce yourself” thread here: Introduce Yourself to send everyone a general greeting and let us know a little about you and your guitar journey so far. Certainly not an obligation, but a great way to get to know more people in the community.

Cheers and keep strummin!!
