Re: New thread about making money in the music and Linux industries...
It depend on several factors. Here in Switzerland, you can learn music at high schools. Typically it is a 10 years program to learn classical music. But to make a living playing classical music, this will not be enough and you will have to make one more degree, like a PHD in music, that just to get ...

Re: obs setting - line in + microphone
The main issue when recording audio with a computer is the optimization of the hardware, of the line/mic input. An audio mixer like alsamixer will show You the audio levels in dB. The hardware is always optimized to get the best compromise in the analog part of the inputs when the corresponding leve...

Re: Sync recording audio and video
Clap is a cheap method that always works fine, even with the hands. Otherwise, if you can afford it, master clock in all the hardware equipments.

Re: For jam-track makers
A nice and useful exercise I made with chords is to play them in reverse quinte succession. In many musical style, maybe all, you will find progressions like V-I, II-V-I, VI-II-V-I, and so on. If you begin with the IV, it will give you: IV-VII-III-VI-II-V-I You can harmonize it and play, as example ...

Re: What makes Jazz, jazz
OMG so Chuck D was right. He said they stole the Blues and Jazz. Thank god I did not sell those records. :wink: Some Cuban musicians said than they invented rap music, that because of the so-called musica campesina. That style of music can be found in all Latin America and in Cuba as well. It is so...

Re: What makes Jazz, jazz
I cannot find a simple answer to that. Historically, jazz was an evolution of the blues made by black musicians, and it was called "jazz" by white people at a time that word was an insult. Also, like with the blues, most songs was popular songs that mixed music with lyrics. With time, the ...

Re: How do YOU decide when a song's finished?
A song is never finished for me. I am happy with a song when I can play it, but as my playing style change with time, it's a never ending process. Also, if I liked to play classical music and admire the virtuosity of metal music, I prefer the rythm and blues approach, to keep things simple and use t...

Re: Linux-Based Low-Latency Multichannel Audio System
The frequency response looks strange for audio work. At the HF end -3dB looks to be about 60kHz, and at LF 5Hz. Isn't this likely to encourage problems with out-of-band input signals? Not necessarily as long we are talking of the analog part of the DACs and ADCs. In all analog audio circuits I know...

Re: Are you addicted to a genre of music?
First you must know what kind of feeling you want to bring to peoples, and you will never know if the feeling you want them to feel is the feeling they feel. Quite a good text, although I'd like to point out the above. Since it's not possible to be totally, 100%, certain about how one will feel (or...

Re: Why learn music theory?
The first blues songs was on 1 chord, and just by making chords substitutions and introducing V-I, II-V-I and VI-II-V-I chords progressions, they made it to the jazz over the years. Beside that, what one will need most to learn to play is to practice. It's funny how people with some musical educati...
