Rehearse Smarter, Not Longer

How to make every rehearsal productive, efficient and enjoyable.

Many bands rehearse… but don’t really improve.
With a bit of structure, rehearsals become powerful work sessions where everyone progresses together.

🎯 1. Set a clear goal for every rehearsal

Every session should answer:
“What do we want to improve in the next 2 hours?”

Examples:

• learn a new song
• fix a tricky intro
• prepare a setlist
• polish transitions
• test new gear

👉 With BandCopilot

Write your goal directly in the band’s shared notes or rehearsal entry.

📋 2. Prepare files before rehearsal

Avoid wasting time:

• searching for demos
• hunting old versions
• guessing the structure

👉 BandCopilot centralises everything

Audio, notes, setlists, docs — everyone has the right version.

⏱️ 3. Manage time efficiently

A productive rehearsal follows a simple structure:

1. Warm-up / setup (5 min)
2. Main objective (60–70%)
3. Quick setlist run-through (10–15%)
4. Short debrief (5 min)

You progress faster with less fatigue.

✔️ 4. Document decisions

Rehearsal decisions are easily forgotten:

• “Let’s change the ending.”
• “We slow down this part.”
• “We extend the intro.”

👉 With BandCopilot

Use comments or setlist notes to keep trace of every decision.

---

🔁 5. Do a quick debrief

Two simple questions:

• What worked?
• What should we improve next time?

👉 BandCopilot helps

You keep a history of rehearsals and decisions.
