You're going to have to dodge and move, a lot. Your animations are long and your songs especially leave you very open. What you should do is decide what song you want to play in the next 30 seconds, do one or two of its bonks time depending, then reposition, do the next bonk, so your song is ready to play, then make sure the monster isn't going to hit you, say Nerg is doing his lunge at a far away teammate, then perform the song. As it's about to finish you roll out so you can finish early, it still activates but saves you a second or so. When no vital songs like AU or such need to be played, just try to play somewhat like a slow hammer, wail on the face and stick to the monster, but when you notice the sign for a buff you applied is flashing start prepping the song. Also, make sure to always have your self buffs on, the free minds eye+movement speed+AUL are very useful. Earplugs 3 or 5 are good skills to have around, so you can't be interrupted, as is evade extender. Also, if the monster trips, reapply a buff or two directly in it's face, as the KO damage from the song going off is very good.
