This is a combination of field recording, slicing up a guitar performance into loops, using loops and effects that came with Sonar X1 in Sonar's matrix view with a bit of editing of the matrix performance.

Can't Stop Myself
the thoughts they in my head
spinning around
the thoughts they eat my head
and rip me down
they want me to do…
Well, I should give some background. Sometimes, for me, the difference in tunings are hard to discern - I don't have perfect or even good relative pitch discrimination. So I can get fooled. The Prelude for a Centaur tuned piano was actually composed…
One could use this to compare the changes I made to accommodate the change in tuning because this is the Centaur tuned piece but I changed the master tuning back to "standard" 12 equal.

Full picture of the guitarron body - it sounded great - nicely deep.
The guitarron is fretless with a very short neck which reminds me of a giant Oud - the wikipedia article will give you an idea of just how huge this thing really is…

indeed i thought the 1st was very "wholesome", this is the same piece, note wise as the former? if not if seems very similar to me,,, i enjoy both,, this one might have a bit more bite? anyway well done

ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…

finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.
Lyrics:
======
I hate you when you breathe. Could you stop?
Waking up is hard to do when sleep never comes
But your ugly faces woke me up...
Callous sycophants
I know you too well to rest again
I'll stay up forever. I'll be ready
I've seen…

I have the midi files saved if you would like them? although some of this is performance midi records If I can say that? ;)
A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.
I'm going to put this in my profile if it will fit.
the question of how microtonality is perceived and why is a hotly debated one on the tuning list. There seems to be, in general, but not in all cases, shared intervals around the world, like the 5th. However non-western cultures use, in general, microtonal tunings. !2 equal notes to an octave is a relatively recent invention in the west. 300 years ago it was common for what would be now called a microtonal tuning to be in common, everyday use. As best as can be determined the push for 12 equal was all about changing keys in a single piece of music. If you take the tuning of the middle ages, Pythagorean, you find you can't play in any key despite having 12 notes because the intervals between the notes are not equally spaced. As a result when you take a pure chord and move it up or down the octave with the same distance between the notes it could become something hideous. 12 Equal solves that problem at the expense of detuning all notes, some more than others.

Hi Ricard, thanks for the listen and comment. It is probably hard not to hear 14 edo as out of tune since it so close to 12 but not quite there. I think then your sense of it being flattened and less bright is the result of the tuning.
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Love the "da-da-da-dum-boom-boom" vocal touches.
Completely awesome! What a masterpiece, Chris!! Your vocals are on fire in this setting and the musical arrangement is blazing!!
More sinister beautiful - wonderful playing!
Chilling and dramatic!
Trippy!!
excellent....very excellent
pretty amazing Chris,,, great sounds and very well put toghether
yes I am. With *lots* of rosin on the hair.
If things start to look like that while one is driving, I would suggest pulling over and calling a cab!
Ha! I guessed it before seeing the video!
Are you actually bowing a stop sign??
Power beats - sounds kinda angry! Very potent!
Now, this I like. Wonderful man.
Wow thats very cool mate
naw, I have nothing to do with NMC or DJNS. I was a part of 2 star man and that was enough for me!
cool sounding guitar
I love it!!! This is so awesome, great change-up... LG
with the distorted vox in the front, I almost expected a showing by NMC or DJ ns
indeed i thought the 1st was very "wholesome", this is the same piece, note wise as the former? if not if seems very similar to me,,, i enjoy both,, this one might have a bit more bite? anyway well done
Cheers mate it is good to be back.

You made it into a classical piece - I love that. Great work Richard!
ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
the scope of this is totally impressive
one of my favorite songs - done really well!
Beautiful Richard!!
this is an excellent song!
finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.
This is cool! You made the google guitar sound like its going through a *huge* stack.
wow. very powerful words and music.
this is excellent - and unique!
lovely Richard! Sounds light music for a candle light dinner.
thank you for the listen and comment on my seagull improv.
Reg - he did do something like that one day - and yes it was great!
and the excellence of the music should be overlooked too.
Reg - you are one heck of a story teller! Have you considered writing a novel or short story?
Hi John, I like this one.
you should be creating music for sci-fi films!
I wish AT had a repeat button. I'm downloading this - great piece Norm!
