Invisible Sabrina Maria 1 hour ago Forum: User Showcase Jump to new postsJump to new posts
I wrote this song called 'Invisible' and produced it using all instruments from Band In A Box. It has been mixed and mastered within GarageBand. Lead and backing vocals are my voice. I wrote this song quite a few years ago, it was primarily to do with my music journey. I put my heart, soul, sweat and tears into each song and there's no support; not even from those closest to me, hence feeling invisible. I'm sure many of you musicians will relate. Previous to Band In A Box, I used session musicians and recorded in a studio, but finances do not allow for that anymore, so these past 4 years I have been on a journey of learning production from start to finish and this year, I have released 4 tracks using BIAB. I am so grateful for this software and although I have been using BIAB for quite a few years, I wasn't aware there was a Forum until I watched a YT video today talking about this software. Please let me know know what you think, but please be kind lol.

I couldn't find any Pitch Bend events. I think that is a result of discordant data that doesn't match the actual chord, as I explained earlier.

From what I can determine, there are 2813 notes and 10,155 other events, mostly consisting of Sustain Pedal events, all on Channel 3. There is some corruption in my view and I think this will be difficult to resolve. Not much more I can help with, unfortunately. (And where are all the Mac expert people?)

All I can determine is that the MIDI file (including that latest one) seems to contains data for all of the channels. The data consists of Bass, Drums, Piano and Guitar, and looking at the data in the Piano Roll view, everything seems to be on Channel 3.

Easy..... it has presets. Find the one you like the best and start with it every time. I have and use Ozone 10 Mastering. I let it do it's thing and rarely adjust the parameters other than shutting off the maximizer 90% of the time

An interesting approach, that I guess might work for some. I don't know the full explanation, but I can sit at a piano, close my eyes and then play any note or chord with my left hand. Black keys don't usually matter. I was at a George Shearing concert many years ago, and he mentioned that someone had asked him how did he know where Middle C was? To the audiences amusement, he stated that it was simple: "it was the C note nearest to the key lock on the piano" grin
I've told this before.... At a church I attended several years ago, I was in the orchestra. We had 3 really, really good piano players who swapped out or one was on the piano and the other on a synth/organ. The other one was the music minister and was the conductor. You could put a piece of music in front of any of them that they had never seen or heard before. Didn't matter what the key was. They could look at it, and then play it flawlessly like they'd been playing it their entire lives. BUT, tell them we're going to jam in the key of A major with a 1-4-5 progression and they had no clue what you were talking about and they were, in fact, unable to play along. Of course, I was just as clueless on the flip side when I was presented with a piece of sheet music with 5 flats and no chord charts. Practically everything we played on the stage at that church was in the keys of Bb, Eb, and Ab. It was interesting, to say the least, to play along with the orchestra. Yeah, an no capo.... I'd learned the chords and didn't use one and that blew the mind of the other guitar player.

Re: Computer music magazine shutting down after 25 years Guitarhacker 3 hours ago Forum: Off-Topic Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Print media as a whole has been greatly affected by the internet. I saw the demise of one of my customers as the internet became a thing. A local newspaper with over 120 people working full time, to a pared down staff of essential people, to subcontracting the printing process to another larger paper with a press, to selling the press and relocating to a smaller office with a bare minimum staff to keep the website current. I used to subscribe to Guitar Player magazine. I kept every single issue for well over a decade. As the articles declined in length and depth, and more advertisements filled the pages, I made the decision to stop reading it. I ended up selling the collection as a whole to someone who wanted the issues. I think I broke even on that deal. That was back when they were putting a 33rpm record in the magazine. I learned a lot from those magazines but it was time to move on.

Re: Have you used this 1800s songwriting technique that I just learned about Guitarhacker 3 hours ago Forum: Songwriting Jump to new postsJump to new posts
I worked with a cowriter who was a stickler for counting syllables in the lines and insisting that they match up. The reasoning was simple. When you vary the syllable count you also force a different melody and feel to the verses. Of course as he points out with the Beatles song In My Life.... rules are meant to be bent and even broken but you have to break them in a way that works. I'm thinking, if I was to examine my works over the past several years, not a single song I've written follows the syllable count exactly. BTW: I just checked my Baptist Hymnal and those rebellious souls don't have those numbers at the bottom of the hymn.

OK, that MIDI file is a combination of all tracks. It contains data on the following channels (zero based) Track 0 - Candlelight Carol on Channel 0 Track 1 - Bass on Channel 1 Track 2 - Drums on Channel 9 Track 3 - Piano on Channel 2 Track 4 - Guitar on Channel 6 It was possibly saved as a MIDI Type 0 file, where all channels are combined. Can you recall how you saved the MIDI data, was it Type 0 or Type 1 ? [Linked Image]
