| Hiatus A toughie, for sure. One decides, “I want to improve the way my music sounds.” Fair. The processes then undertaken to achieve the desired result in this fair endeavor often cause one to be inordinately concerned with minutiae instead of enjo... | |
| The use of digital pitch correction software on vocal recordings @hilde45 The “pretense” is that the vocal recording was a human expression. If the vocal recording was “airbrushed” by software before it hit the listener’s ears, the thing that ultimately hit the listener’s ears (vocal recording) was not the to... | |
| The use of digital pitch correction software on vocal recordings @mahgister “If you artificially created "perfection" you lose the expressive vulnerability and the power of this internal struggle in the artistic gesture.” Beautiful. Thank you. There seems to be a fetid entitlement with artists these days. ... | |
| The use of digital pitch correction software on vocal recordings @javaruke I’m sorry, but would you please clarify what a “pension fund concert vocal” is? I don’t know what that is. Your inquiry as to whether or not digital pitch correction may be used in live applications is not a “hijack” at all, but a great... | |
| The use of digital pitch correction software on vocal recordings “…how hard it is…to record a great vocal track.” With all due respect…please…spare me. I’m a singer. I sing on pitch. How else does a singer sing, but on pitch? Barring a certain punk-rock, Patti Smith/Lou Reed/Randy Newman-type approach, ... | |
| The use of digital pitch correction software on vocal recordings @fuzztone my use of the term, “presented with (blank)…” is just a way to say, “a person listening to something.” The product itself (in this case, a vocal recording) is what is “presented.” | |
| Share the songs that move you (from musicals). I left out “Somewhere,” Leonard Bernstein & Stephen Sondheim, West Side Story, and “Send In the Clowns,” Stephen Sondheim, A Little Night Music. I’m sure I’ve still left out a lot more. | |
| Working with 78’s A brand new Ortofon cartridge for shellac 78 RPM records can be had for $20? Wow. Cool! | |
| The greatest Pop song yet written and recorded. @hce1 “Thanks for that list of Carole King songs.” You bet! 😉 My (nerdy) pleasure. “It’s incredible and I’ll be listening to them all week long.” I love to hear that! | |
| I saw the back of an integrated and it depressed me. @waytoomuchstuff That’s funny! It sounds like the person exercised their Second Amendment rights, as well as their Elvis Presley rights. | |
| Share the songs that move you (from musicals). - “Someone To Watch Over Me,” George & Ira Gershwin, Oh, Kay! - “Ol’ Man River,” Jerome Kern & Oscar Hammerstein, Show Boat - “Embraceable You,” George & Ira Gershwin, Girl Crazy - “I Got Rhythm,” George & Ira Gershwin, Girl Crazy ... | |
| I saw the back of an integrated and it depressed me. @tony1954 You’re right, but I suspect for a reason different from what you’re saying | |
| I saw the back of an integrated and it depressed me. @tony1954 “you really have to join the 21st century…video is no different than audio in that getting the highest possible quality is a worthy endeavour.” Is that so? O, thoust eminence, my benefactor tony1954! But for thy wisdom eternal, an... | |
| Help us build our playlist for our next show in November! I’m picturing a scene similar to the one in Wayne’s World, where the the music shop employee stops Wayne while he’s auditioning a Strat and points to the sign, “NO STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN” Perhaps analogous here would be: “NO BROTHERS IN ARMS” “NO DAR... | |
