Note-Bashing
These have been split into the rehearsal schedule chunks. A block sounding on the beat is to help you with your counting. If there is a really long gap there will a bar with no sound and then the woodblock will start counting from the beginning of the first full empty bar before you start singing - but try and count and come in at the same time as the midi.
