What is imposter syndrome? th-cam.com/video/hpU9A_-sIGo/w-d-xo.html
Imposter syndrome idk??
I have anxiety problems and depression. It’s destructive at some times. I have professional help. But sometimes I can’t take it anymore. I love making music. Performed a lot in my life as a DJ and also as a pianist for a choir. I love the people who listen to my music and respect it when I perform or release. But sometimes I burst out in tears. Although I know that I know that I am grateful for what I do and that I’m somewhat privileged I’m also a human just like anyone else. Great video, Pete.
Absolutely my friend. Everyone has ups and downs - just some have deeper peaks and troughs. Thanks for sharing you experience Emiel.
Pete Johns Thank you, Pete.
👍
Pete you're the best for this! Thanks for this!
Cheers my friend. Appreciate the kind words.
Thanks Pete. I suffer from the things your talking about. When I was in my 20s I was in a band I loved but the lead guy asked me to leave. I loved making music but that really knocked my confidence and I felt really anxious about making any more music. Anyway now, 15 years later, I’m writing and recording songs again and learning IOS GarageBand from your channel has been a huge part of that. I’m still anxious about sharing my music with most people but I am now in a band again too and I really love playing with people. Thanks for spending your time making videos that help people like me learn how to make recordings sound better.
Wonderful to hear my friend. Too many folks have been on your shoes and hopefully we can continue encouraging more people to create more music. Nobody needs to pick you anymore / everyone can play.
Another thoughtful, well written and helpful video for those who need a 'boost' of confidence ...... more Pete Johns magic! :)
Cheers mate. 👍
Excellent advice, excellent analogy and overall very wholesome message. This type of video is rare on TH-cam, and this vid in particular deserves more views
Thank you my friend. I see ton many folks not creating because of their anxiety about what other people think. It simply doesn’t matter!
i wrote a paper on social empathy. i studied sociology and i know the best way in life is to wing it!! law of attraction and music works..
some people dont even know they have anxiety they just call it "stress"
pete you never stop amazing me my friend :)
Cheers for sharing your experience John. It’s a life long learning experience this stuff!
Excellent video, Pete! I love watching and learning from your GarageBand videos. You provide valuable information in each one, and have a very friendly and pleasant personality. As I watch more of your videos, I feel like you’re a guy I would like to be friends with. This “Anxiety” video is very caring and empathetic. Thank You. You are one very cool and musically talented dude, Pete!

Cheers Ron. Glad to have you here. I think o saw you over on the Facebook group too which is great. 👍
Love this post. There are times I end up feeling overwhelmed because I have so much to do. These points resonate well with me. Appreciate the video, Pete.
Cheers my friend. It’s so easy to just keep pushing through. The “grind” and “hustle” culture sometimes forgets that humans are not limitless. Sometimes you need to pause and take stock.
Hi Pete, I really like your holistic approach to Create, Record, Release! Thanks a lot! Cheers, Alex
Thanks Alex. Appreciate all your support. 👍
Good on ya, Pete

@@PeteJohnsMusic LoL I live in United States,North Carolina,its 8:45 am here on Monday 25th,that's why I said Happy Memorial Day
Yup. Saw on the news that you folks have Memorial Day today. Always good to reflect upon how lucky we truly are.
@@PeteJohnsMusic ABSOLUTELY Pete...ABSOLUTELY. I for sure dont take it for granted, because MANY MANY a man has made the Ultimate sacrifice for my sake & Our freedom here. I CAN IN NO WAY even begin to imagine the despair,fears, horrors,doubts& dis-beliefs that those young soldiers had to have faced in their missions they endured & so selflessly gave their life for!!!! Gone yes,but forgotten, NEVER!!! GOD BLESS their souls & the many family members & loved ones they left behind for the cause of Liberty && Freedom.Our lives today are as they are because of their Heroic actions!!😎🍻🍺🍻
Hi Pete ,
Speaking of anxiety .. I have been using the music memos app you recommend for about a year with ideas for songs and of course lyrics to those songs and ideas 😱 then ..bang , the program freezes up and now unable to retrieve a year worth of work . 😢😡 ouch ..I am desperately trying to find a way to bring that data back . I have been on the phone with apple and trying different things but to no avail so far. Next step to try and contact the designers of the app 😴. All data is backed up on iCloud, I even purchased a new iPhone pro Max yesterday hoping it by a miracle it would help restore from my iCloud backup but of course did the same thing..open app ,then once you tap on data on screen..freezes up weird thing messes with iWatch app also google won’t open up ..freezes ..phone ,get hot 🥵 then of course I must reboot then things go back to normal. You might want to warn your viewers of this very upsetting issue . I used to use voice memos for my ides but the music memos was definitely much more convenient for musicians with place for lyrics and other info. If you know of a fix please send me the cure. Thanks so much and keep up the great informative videos.
Hey there. Very sorry to hear my friend! I’ve heard of this happening with ideas saved on the device but never iCloud Drive? Such a strange one. My fingers are crossed for you hat there will be some sort of fix here.
Pete Johns It seems the data is backed up on the cloud but the app itself from the backup is somehow corrupted . If I delete the original music memos app then download a fresh copy it will work great but of course you are starting all over from scratch because of the design of this app my old data is not part of the new downloaded version. 😩😡🥵🤯😜
Pete Johns A lesson learned here. ..good ole pen and notebook and great memory. What is hilarious I still have old cassette tapes with ideas/ lyrics/ notes that still to this day are still there after30 years...😔
I know of people like that on Bandlab,they dont have confidence in their music,* others are way to over confident LoL
Indeed! Insecurity has present itself in either way. Some are suffering but put on an outer shell of false confidence to hide how they are really feeling.
I’ve got an Illness thank you
Sorry to hear. Hope you are getting the help you need.
Pete Johns yes thank you it’s called cystic fibrosis I always watch you when I’m in hospital
I don’t have anxiety or anything like that thankfully but I have a question of a sound effect that can I ask for I tried to find it my self which didn’t work
You’re looking for a sound effect? I use freedound.org for most sounds I’m looking to use and they have a good range.
@Pete Johns no sir I was wondering if you could help me find the sound effect used in a certain scene of a show
You might need to ask around on an online forum or group for something like this my friend. I’m far from an expert when it comes to sound effects.
@@ShahidKarim-rz2epI think that way too specific of a question but I'll offer some guidance since we're in 2020. Try using melody.ml or the iOS app, "Let's Unmix" to get that exact sound off the scene. Get a snippet of the audio (preferably legally, but...) , and use the app/website to split it into components. It might get the audio you're looking for. If it's a bit rough, then try and analyze that audio and replicate the sound.
Some useful FREE analysis tool to help you replicate these sounds are:
1. Wavescope (currently free, AUv3)- itunes.apple.com/app/id1456540213?at=11l3KP&mt=8&uo=4&ct=1
2. Vectorscope (free, IAA) - itunes.apple.com/app/id735257507?at=11l3KP&mt=8&uo=4&ct=1
And the, free "Let's Unmix" app to get the audio is - itunes.apple.com/app/id1500367180?at=11l3KP&mt=8&uo=4&ct=1
(you do need to pay a one time fee to unlock the app and let you save in your device)
Also, check out my channel at #SEONN or th-cam.com/users/seonnthaproducer for some more Garageband videos.
@Pete Johns - Hope it's okay for me to promote my channel as well. Trying to help producers get better at their craft on mobile devices (iOS, Android)
it is absolutley true, nobody else gives a rats arse about you. everyone got thier own agenda and life running through thier head. also though. everyone wants you to succeed. people cheer on the little guy,. they want you to be great.
There are all sorts of contradictions at play here for sure. It’s like the statement “stop trying so hard and never stop trying”
@@PeteJohnsMusic another tip for speaking to large crowds or playing musci to an audience. if it was just one personit wouldnt be scraey at all. its the whoel crowd crowd that makes it scarey. like they have a collective mind. they dont. so just think of a crowd as a whole load of one persons standing together. you are one on one with each of them. it is really only one person you are playing or speaking to.
