I plan to eventually dub in an improv part on alto recorder, but don't know when I'll get around to it.  time doesn't really hang heavy on my hands and I'd have to figure out how to use whatever Norc is using.  (garage band?)

Do or do not. There is no try - Yoda, a long, long time in a galaxy far away.

so this is the sheets i used, so if it is false it is because the sheets were bloody hard to read. but here's the link, i'll explain more there. since i don't have any good recording system i'm just plucking the strings.

btw, the part here that i have sheets for i think will sound best on a guitar, even though u yourself don't think so.

AUDIOACITY! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I SAID THAT!? (and not once have i been able to spell it correctly..)

woops, just realised there is a chunk of sound that fell out, so skip a bit and get to the end  sorry.. probably not a very important bit

Just listening to the song on youtube:



Is it a cello playing the bass notes? That is what I was trying to replicate with my bassier notes (although I think they start on a G).

Then there is something playing that I can't tell what it is (xylophone? harp? odd sounding piano?) that is what i was playing the high bits on idea 2 which was basically notes from an a minor scale (basically an arpeggiated A minor chord on guitar with 1 other note in there [C, B, A, E])

Have to bear in mind I am a tone higher without re-tuning my guitar so where I play A, the song is actually in G.

just start on a D please, then i can double and octavate and play all the bits :)u might be right that it starts on a G, if i get the viola out i can join u on that, but i can't go as high up on the viola.. maybe.. maybe.

edit: but whether it is a D or a G doesn't really matter that much (as the violin is tuned in quints so that i only change string to start on) my main point was that it is not AAFE, but DDEFDDBA

Ok. I'll see how that goes then. Might have to re-tune but sure that is easier on mine that it is on yours.

ok. so i got out the viola and tried starting on a G (since u insisted) i then octavated to a higher G. i tried going even higher, but as the viola doesn't have the E string (top string in violin) it became a bit dificult, ihad to play faar far far up on the neck. if i do record this properly, i think i will try to borrow a five string electric violin, so problem solved. so yes, if you're ok with starting on a G i think that is what we'll do.

yes. yes it is. especially since violins aren't meant to be tuned very differently xD it might be a string goes

I didn't insist... just asked if you could. I will see what I can do with the tuning tomorrow and put something up to listen to and see what you think.

u insisted since in the video they play a G. but yeah, work out the tuning, we can't play in different keys..

Yes miss!

lol he called me miss...

The program is called: AUDACITY http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Auda city. Det e enkelt å huske.

I tried playing without any wires and stuff, but apparently the mic in my laptop didn't work.  

I think the sheet music I have (someone who made free version for brass band) should match Norc's.

That's not helpful. Mine didn't work the other day... I found a random setting in the program I was using though and turned it on. Check there isn't a mic input volume setting somewhere.

Thanks Amarie! (I see you are a Mac girl  ) downloaded it and it opened up fine.  I'll play around with it later.

nei, det e ikkje lett å huske, Amarië..

u gotta choose what mic to use, if it is a song on youtube u wanna nick or record ur own stuff look at the mic option-menu-thing.

also. i might stop posting as much as i do... actually i am trying to cut down, so maybe once a week

cheers.

(has nothing to do with u guys, i love u all <3 )

What? Once a week, you mean a day surely, or maybe an hour in fact, or every other minute?

Theres so much stuff coming up with the film, Who 50th, return of Sherlock soonish, the Awards.

It's not April Fool's Day, Norc.

Må ikke la deg skremme av en enkelt kjemiprøve, Nora Blir tamt her uten deg!

Blimey. Norc seems to have figured out she has a life to live.

Me, the more busy I am at work, the more I find myself here as an escape.
