I'm afraid I can't see music - only hear it, so unless you have an audio demo I can't give you any feedback, and I imagine many here are in the same boat. If you want feedback on the lyrics, write them out line by line without the music.
 
Oh sorry! Hmm... in the upper right hand corner, past the music, there is a menu called "play". In that you should be able to play it, or simply click slightly above the sheet music, a "play" sign should appear next to it, that should play.
 
Not sure what you're trying to do here...there seems to be no rhyme or reason for the timing...no real melody, pretty much just dissonance...lyrics are very....I don't know, so I have to ask...are you joking with us?

If not, I don't want to offend, just not my style of music I guess.
 
Depends, are you familiar with modern art song?

May have been the wrong forum to post in, idk.

I am working on the coherence of the piece at the moment, so it definitely does have issues with timing.

If you're not familiar with classical voice this will be... a bit weird to say the least.

Oh well, I'll find a forum more geared to this part of recording this sort of music, when I've got the recording I'll probably bring it up in the recording, mastering mixing subforums.

So, no, I wasn't joking with you, but perhaps I should have found another forum.

Cheers

Click to expand...

I am! Sorry! What I actually thought you were doing was some sort of metal song...typically people on here are into that kind of stuff. Now that you tell me the context, this could turn out very interesting. I'd love to hear it once you've got a recording. It is hard for me to really get a feel of songs from a midi track. If you're doing classical voice, I can understand the timing thing a big better...but yea, I'm really sorry, I just did not understand the context of the music. Can't wait to hear a recording of it!
 
Very interesting piece, I havn't heard anything quite like that before. Maybe you could explore making it a bit more "emotionaly wrenching" in parts? Good work though, congratulations.
 
It appears that it may be interesting in an Arnie Schoenberg tone poem Pierrot Lunaire sort of way BUT that's really hard to tell. What's the accompaniment going to be?
The midi (??) keyboard is pretty awful. You need to privide a bit more 'stuff" for me to get a grip on your ideas. Perhaps record the vocal melody with another instrument or totally different sample so that it stands out from the harmony.
 
Yes, that midi is horrendous, but it is a very nice site for composing music quickly from a variety of locations. I will be rewriting parts of this today and hopefully getting out a version with Pro Tools virtual instruments and my voice, but that could take a while, as it stands the vocal part is virtuostic beyond my own abilities, but my range is changing at the moment, so perhaps it will be more reasonable quite soon.

The lyrics are also very much in a state of change, it's isn't as strong as it should be, I totally agree with the idea of more "emotionally wrenching" lyrics.

Thank you all very much! I forgot to subscribe to this thread so I didn't realize I had responses!! Apologies!
