HAHA. Nah, I don't think it honestly will make a significant difference, though I never have. I'm a very dedicated 5/6 string bass player though. :p |

I was just curious as to whether or not playing an instrument in a Lucid Dream would help at all at getting better at the instrument? Also, if it can, is it a significant difference between before the dream and after the dream? |

Maybe something you learned/read will make more sense. Cause you can think and solve problems in lucid dreams. Some people study LDing for the sole purpose of solving problems and their questions. Say you learn mode shapes/modes. They might make no sense but if you LD and think about it, you may get it the next morning. |

Thank you for the info |

I don't know, I have yet to have a dream about something, as I haven't really been stumped until just this wednesday, when I was taught walking 3rds, 4ths, 5ths, 6ths, and 7ths over alternating key signatures in different modes, mainly Phyrigian, Ionian, and Dorian |

I think if you have a very extended depth of understanding of an instrument, pitch relativity, and music theory, then one may be able to practice an instrument in an lucid dream, but other than that, your mind will create sounds that do not correspond with what a real instrument would produce. |
|
Yes it does thank you for that |
|
Also, I'm very new to the idea of Lucid Dreaming. Do you think keeping a dream journal should be the first thing I start to do in order to obtain lucidity? |
|
I think that playing instruments in dreams is as effective as in waking life, if you have played the instrument before i.e. you know how to play the instrument. |
|
Usually whenever I find myself playing an instrument in dreams I'm really good at it. I play guitar often in waking life and write music sometimes, and I find it really annoying to remember dreaming of a song that was incredible but cannot possibly replicate it. Maybe music is just more powerful in dreams? |

i am also a 6 string bassist... i dont know if playing instruments really helps all that much. like it was mentioned before, you would have to have an amazing sense of your instrument and the piece you were working on to actually help. because how could it help if you play any note and it sounds good? |

It trains the mind. For example if you picked up the flute only once, or the guitar only once, and learned a few scales, but you have to think in order to play them. In the dream your subconscious mind is learning it so that when you are awake you won't have to think as hard. It will be more automatic. |

Interested in a 1999 Fender MIA Jazz 4? |

I don't have much experience LDing (just a few with very little control), but I definatley think that you can become better at any musical instrument by practicing it in a dream. |

Think slowly; focus as the fireworks become a looking glass, step through to awaken to the cycle of awakening.
FluBB, can you tell me if this looks familiar to you? |

Hi jarrhead, it's great to find other musicians also interested in LDing! No disrespect, but I DO believe that you can practice a piece of music without your instrument. You say that the pressure, and reactions etc will be off in the dream. |

Hey mottus, |

I understand where your coming from J..and this makes a lot of sense. But If you are at the stage, in learning a piece of music, where you have it totally memorized...you can just pick up a dream guitar, play through the piece as you do in waking life, and improve muscle memory on the peice of music. Just the same as you could build muscle memory for scales and other techniques. |
|

But as a dream you may have distorted sounds. You're not fully conscious unless you're highly lucid. And if you're not lucid at all, there's still a chance the sounds will be off. |

i'm afraid it doesnt, but i do like the gear you posted. |

I have great ear-training abilities as well, and I still don't see this very likely. |
