woblyron,
You may be plukling the strings unwantingly as your moving your finger when you do the changes.

Remember Hammer on and Lift off can produce sounds intentionally or not.

Yup, I've been at it a little while and I always hear sounds I didn't want when I listen to my recordings. Rogue little fingers, sloppy hand positions with fingers muting strings and messing with others. It will get better!

Yes it is. It just takes time. But become aware of using the palm of your strum hand to mute strings.

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.
It's not what you can't do. It's how you play what you already know.
