Problems with Short Activation Windows in RB3

I'm having issues activating very short OD windows in RB3 (on 360). Some windows, the first window (2/sk3) of Jerry in particular, absolutely refuses to activate no matter what I do, pausing, screaming, vvvvvrrr-ing, nothing. Has anybody else had similar problems, or have possible solutions to offer? Please and thank you

I think the trick for that is to use the pause-rewind. Pause right after the phrase, and since it rewinds a bit you have time to hit the window.

In addition to pausing, vrring with a varied pitch (like "vrrrRRRrrr", like a car revving or something) helps, and also activating in a different octave than you're singing also helps.

Pausing has yet to miss an activation for me, even when it's really close. Just eat the mic and make whatever noise you want, preferably the next pitch.
