Hi. In Fundamentals 1, Lisa talks about syncopation as "slanting" the beat. At first, I interpreted this as a slight delay before, say, the second beat. But, in a lesson from Cary, and then going back to the lesson from Lisa, it seems more like a change in emphasis rather than any change in timing. Is that right?

Also, looking more closely, it appears to me that both Lisa and Cary achieve the change in emphasis mostly by hitting fewer strings for less emphasis (on the first beat, for example) and all the strings of a particular chord for more emphasis (on the second beat, for example). Am I seeing and hearing this correctly?
