I’m glad you like my music
I just want to clearly something you misunderstood.
It’s the Mahler that’s done with iSymphonic. I didn’t find miroslaw good enough for the ambient sounding theme...
The allegro of my string quartet is entirely done in an early version of Symphony Pro.
thanks, tbh it took me a very long time to 'just do it' - after that the process itself was rather quick (which applies to my humble guitar playing, too).
Like most folks I started 'learning' guitar by score, by tabs... a complete failure. Caused physical pain similiar to headache and felt very uncomfortable. Made me put the guitar away.
Years later (with some recording gear) I bought a guitar for fun and just played what came to my mind. Being a little more self confident that time, I didn't care about what's considered 'good playing' and all that stuff.
Recording and rearranging things developed some memory about 'sound content' and made me pick audio segments that seemed 'matching'. Like an abstract type of non-written score.
I frequently record for up to an hour continously (without metronome), and let the natural pulse drive the output. Which eases the process of later re-combination, as there's always some common feeling kept during the track.
Regarding the M3000: it didn't take to long and I had all IAPs, would have been smarter to buy the whole set en bloc... but I don't mind - the costs were only a fraction of the PC versions, when it was released.
The Soprano voice and the ClareL Violin are new recordings with old gear, which is a cool step. I like the Mellotron more than a regular sampler, because it has a kind of natural 'capture the moment' feeling, but it's of course limited in voice tweaking.
So true. So true.
thanks for the kind words, but there's not much wizzardy about it.
Most is just routine and sticking with the tools you have
Some observation: don't underestimate eyestress and visual distraction of a GUI.
A fancy layout may look cool, but it can take away a lot of focus subconsciously and even a slight improvement of screen redraw has a significant impact.
I only became fast with the tool, because the tool was fast, focussed and precise.
It shows transparent marker lines (begin, end, mouseposition) vertically across the full multitrack display, so I can align a part on track 5 to a peak on track 2 (for example).
The display always keeps the mouse position centered on screen while zooming - it doesn't slip out left or right.
It wouldn't be a big deal to implement a fake mouse-dial action in IOS, but they keep sticking with the pinch bs... Pinch is cool for a arbitrary choices, but not if your target point is already defined, because you deal with a peak or region border.
Man, I tried to bring up the cool interfaces can be too distracting point before, and people said I must be Autistic or ADHD.
Also, I hate the pinch zoom bs, too. Try this 2 handed technique I came up with:
Simply place one finger on the spot you want to zoom into and hold it there. Take your finger on hand 2 and drag toward or away from steady finger to zoom in/out on the point with the steady finger on it.
I can sometimes do it one handed using my thumb and index, but a little squirreliness usually result from one handed attempts.
I guess we all have done quirks about iOS, but man.... it’s an improvement over fiddling with the Synclavier.
Or what @LinearLineman ? LoL
I just wish Zappa was still alive to join us in here. Would be fun
i used the Synclavier to notate a score in 1980 at $150 an hour in today's money @kuhl. Lots of whiteout ( remember that!? Invented by the Monkees Nesmith's mom!!) to correct that score. RIP Synclavier.
LoL those were the days. It was incredible for its time. I remember the first time I saw it, it was in an interview with Oscar Peterson, god bless his immortal soul. I believe Zappa’s SC is in his studio still.
However, I bought the iOS version of its rival, the Fairlight, made by the same people.
The app is called “Vogel CMI”
I think Stewart Copeland, Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush were all Fairlight users? I wanted one of those back in the day, obviously a pipe dream. Gosh, those were great times in music. I feel like we are in a new glorious time.
Might need to look into that Vogel app. You likey Kuhl?
It's as authentic as can be - just add a cheapo stylus to operate it with style
One of my IOS all-time-favourits and the only app I forgive a nonsense-gimmick, the floppy drive noise when the original would have accessed the disk. (can be switched off in prefs)
The only flaw (imho) is the missing midi live output. It can receive midi, though.
Most remarkable: it runs on an iPhone 3gs
50 bux! I mean, yeah it's Fairlight but sheesh. I still want it though ...
