  2. Hi This does sound Fantastic..............but in my opinion this is NOT ai, there using the " ai LABEL " in order to promote sales of their products. The software program im using is over 20 years old, and used a similar TECHNIQUE as in the video below, that video was posted 19 YEARS AGO ! but we incorporated "REAL-HUMAN-VOCALS" ..some examples below. 20 Year Old Vocals.mp3

  8. From a mixing standpoint, I am confused for the balance in both ears. If it was used in production, then the sound engineer would just balance or displace to the left or right channels when needed. Thus, I think it better to leave the audio equal in both channels. Music: It gives the sense of taiko drums or African drum circles and this is what I wish to speak on. From what I know, it doesn't make sense to repeat the same pattern for too long or have a secondary drum just forcing it's way into the mix by playing off beats. It can work, however, if you ever participate in one, you'll know that one person keeps the beat steady while others play off, conversate, and compliment each other. Whether or not this was your intention, be clear in what you think the music may be paired to. Besides being a generic drum track, think about how others may use it: 1. Jungle fly-over for Documentary 2. Aztec documentary 3. Chase scene 4. Showcase for new product. 5. etc. You can take inspiration from certain cultures or musical examples and create drum tracks for more implied purposes. Lastly, if you want this to be used in a percussion loop within a DAW, make it better for those who want to use it and allow the ending and beginning to overlap or restart on eachother.
  9. Hello Have you heard of this virtual instrument called CANTAI? Please note: I have no affiliation with these programmes, even though I use them. https://cantai.app/ It’s a virtual instrument for voices and choirs. It works with MuseScore (which is more advanced), Dorico (the official version was released a couple of days ago) and Sibelius. The novelty is that you write the score, add the parts (soprano, alto, tenor, bass, choir) and write the lyrics... And once everything is set up, the result is that it ‘sings’. I use it with Dorico. It still needs improving, because although it interprets dynamics and accents, and there are many voices available, there will be more. At the moment, in Dorico you can write in English and Latin. But Chinese and Spanish are already available in MuseScore (I think). I’ve written this little sample song to see how it works.
  10. This is my 16 attempt at drum tracks. Slightly better I think than the previous i made but still room for improvement. Any feedback? Thanks. drum track 16.mp3

  12. Hi there @interlect. Thanks for us the score for this for this submission. Here's my review: When you have string parts, make sure you label them with correct names: violin 1, 2, viola, cello, etc. I am sure the samples you are using in the DAW have those names, too. When the DAW produces a score, the notation can be wonky. However, that does not mean you can clean it up. You are the composer! It is you job to make sure the score is readable, too. Remember: if music can be always performed live, if there is opportunity to. Thus, why not make sure you are ready? Fun fact: Film music has reached the concert setting now. Kvothe.
  13. HI there @interlect, The production of the track is swell; and it can I hear the influence of Bob Marley. But, I would like to see parts and score to give more in depth review. That would be great. Thanks. Kvothe.
  14. Here's the current version of this piece. I'm still very unhappy with it tbh. It sounds like a soulless mishmash of bad ideas! I feel like I've had to compromise too many times with my two-part writing and tonal centres, due to the limitations of the instrument. The result is a piece that feels meandering, and bent out of shape. The only part I like is the coda! I've started writing another work for theorbo that I'm much happier with: so I'll probably send that one forwards to our concert later this year, and abandon this one.

  16. Thank you for your kind comments! You are not the first one who recall Bartok while listening my works - I guess it is because of the crude dissonance. I mainly write on computer as it gives me immediate playback which makes my writing more convenient. It is important the method of writing follows the speed my idea comes! haha. It also make the engraving easier.

  19. You are one step closer, my friend @Bjarke Now let us talk about articulation markings. I notice in the left hand you have every note mark with a staccato mark. This is not necessary. There are several options. Option 1: mark one group with staccato then use the expression sim. Option 2: Sempre Staccato Option 3: use the word staccato in the left hand. I think in your case, where you have certain articulation pattern, the first choice would be best the choice for you. I feel b. 95-97 is too repetitive . Do we need to hear the repeat the chord in the RH? (it is too static...) I feel that if you allow that chord to breathe and move it will create more momentum. On the same not. b93 is a repeat of b.92... :)
  20. I'm really enjoying this movement and shall have to check out the rest! One thing your orchestral style reminds me of is the style of parts of Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra, where folksy tunes and whimsical syncopation disguise rather dissonant harmony! Just wondering; do you write directly into the computer, or on paper? Honestly, I can't tell, which is a good thing...I will write directly into the computer for a piano piece, but wouldn't do so for a symphony, if I ever wanted to write another. Heck, it kinda reminds me of the Shostakovich First, teenage masterpiece, in its playful quirkiness. I'll be looking into more of your stuff.
  21. Hi to all, Here's my first attempt to orchestrate this nocturne. I actually started this last year, and never really finished it properly. I know there's a load of things wrong with it! Not least all the missing slurs and clumsy handovers, etc... The cadenza-like figure on Pages 8 and 9 is particularly awkward to orchestrate: so any suggestions would be very welcome! Maybe I should divide up the runs into shorter figures, and spread them out across different instruments? Perhaps dovetailing these together with overlapping notes, or single handover notes? That way the cadenza could work its way around the orchestra to give a nice 3D effect? Anyway, just thinking outloud! Hope you enjoy.

  28. Well... Musescore Studio has never really been all that great at translating MIDI to .mscz... in this case, I see no difference in that fact... lol Here is the .mscz file that resulted from opening the MIDI with Musescore. If you let me know what it is that you're trying to accomplish, or, if willing, you'd be able to send me a copy of the score that you're attempting to format, I might could give you a hand with that, directly rather than indirectly. Just let me know!
