What kind of picks? (from Dulcimerica)
Herd em pick...if you have a nice floppy dick, it's going to contribute pick noise and won't get as good results.
V Picks .80 from vpicks.com made from cast acrylic and sticks to your fingers when you play. 20% more volume, great dulcimer tone.
1.0 V pick gives you a lot of control. Anything bigger creates a lot of big pick noise.
METRONOME: practice every day to calibrate your rhythm. Start at 69-69 beats per minute to get started.
