I was referring to the proper spelling of the note, not hinting that they could somehow be played differently on a piano. And Moskus, if a B is an H, why does it come after an A? :P

There are an infinite number of possible sets of rules. Only a couple of these sets are heard on popular music stations. I find it much more interesting to invent a set of rules, then stick to them for one piece.

Would have selected all five of the options if that were possible.

Audio cables are cheap. Are you that far away from civilization?

If you have a phase problem between the right and left channels, you can only hear it with an ear that is hearing both right and left channels. If each ear is hearing only one channel, that's not going to happen. As an extreme example, record a sine wave on the right channel, and have it...

Re: Re: Hold the phone!! It isn't. What happened was that Modus saw a C and thought it was an E. The answer staff showed the next interval as an A, which he thought was a C. The book was indicating the interval from C to A which is a minor third. Modus interpreted it as E to C which is a...

This one is just as good, and it's half the price!

The best way to get the part where you want it is to record yourself playing it at the right spot while listening to what's already been recorded. In your example, if I understand correctly: 1. Arm track one for recording. 2. Record your clean guitar part on track one. 3. Create track two, if...

Some good music has been written without much knowledge of theory. Look at Brian Eno's vast repertory... he knew no theory, and could barely play any instrument, but is considered a huge influence on many artists (myself included), and has worked with almost any big name in rock you can think...

Hold the phone!! Ok, I was curious, and stopped by a book store at lunch. Um, that wasn't by chance exercise 2-4 on page 24 you cited, was it? If so, you were looking at a TREBLE CLEFF, not a bass cleff, and the book is fine. Now it's time to go back and re-read the preceding pages, because...

I hate Chuck Levin's with a passion. It's always packed with people, and salespeople are very good at ignoring you... like to the tune of 45 minutes straight. Go to Guitar Center at Seven Corners instead. It's never crowded, and their selection is just as good.

I'm considering sending in a submission. What's the current status on how full the disk is? I see a hundred people saying they want to be on it, but only one actual submission so far. So is there room for one more? I gots me twenty bucks, and I ain't afraid of using it! I'm also curious...

Twenty grand? I'm gonna use it as a down-payment on a house.

I hope so! If the subject is accuracy, why are we even considering the car? If you're mixing JUST for the car, make sure you make the right channel louder than the left, so the driver gets the best possible sound. :D I just had a vision of pulling my '95 honda into my studio, hooking the...

I think so, but you may have to specify saving the project as a Sonar 1.x bundle file in the save menu. I'd send him a small test file, just to be sure.

Are you miking your cabinet or running direct? If you're miking, it may be hard to add distortion after the fact, and have it sound natural. If it's direct and using an amp simulator, you can dial up different sounds on that for different parts of the song. One easy way around all this is to...

The bathroom also happens to be the best place on earth to record a french horn.

I would think just the opposite. I imagine there is lots of math involved, but I also imagine the algorithm has been painstakingly worked out for this type of transfer, since it comes up often. By contrast, a pitch-shifter/time-stretcher has to be ready to do anything. Glad it worked, by the...

I have a few good books listed on my composition resource page at http://www.allhands.com/main/resources.html You could also just browse around Amazon.com, and look for books with lots of good reviews attached. By the way, I'm surprised at the Complete Idiot's Guide being that bad. A lot of...

I have a serious problem finishing projects. I am finally finishing up my album (final mastering was yesterday!). I recorded the first track over two years ago.
