Well, I switched the mic to high sensitivity instead of low. It actually sounds as it did when I played it. But looking at the waveform it resembles a sausage. I had to drop the volume 6 Db because it was *way* loud. Clipping tends to make…
Oh, they are so cute!
We have some living down the road and Danny brought the blonde female in to see me. Well, I want one now don't I!!
Oh, great track, by the way.
There is a Lady
She makes you pay
for all of the mistakes you've made
There is a Lady
Attention she craves
no prisoners she takes
Why do you need so much?
Why do you crave so much?
Why can't you forgive a man?
Clever this Lady…

I'm shipping my canon off so it can have a new career without me.
Its such a happy yet sad occasion to see your instrument leave the nest..... ;-[
so I had to spend just a little more time with it.

I do have video of Jacob playing the udderbot with the band - but right now I'm still putting together my gear from storage and this was the best I could do with Windows Live movie maker on my laptop.
So for now - enjoy the sound of Jacob jamming…
What a hair raising trip, but the scenery is so beautiful. I can't get over how quiet your roads are.
The music is wonderfully traditional sounding folk.

The video is the real show here - an excerpt from Xenharmonic Praxis Concert #2
This is Ruckus from the Quiet Zone in 7-limit Just Intonation composed by Ralph Lewis inspired by a trip we made to the Green Bank Radio Telelscope. The quiet zone…
The opening track from the 2nd Xenharmonic Praxis Concert, Madonna, il poco dolce, written by Nicola Vicentino (1511-1572)in (31-tone extended meantone)
Finally, the finishing touches seem to be put on this three-year-old song thanks to some very talented people.
The band is:
Liam (age 13 at the time of recording) on drums
A Girl Named Sam (she's no kid!) with the backing vocals
Genevieve…
A few of you know I accidentally wiped out one of my SD cards that had all my works in progress on it. I'm just starting to piece it all together again - A slow process. This was supposed to be a reprise to "In My Head", but ended up being in…
I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
Really nothing more than some voice leading practice. Unfortunately, I had no keyboard or orchestral samples when I did this, so I used Lilypond and TiMidity++ and step programmed it in a text editor. I've since bought Cubase and EastWest/QuantumLeap…
As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-)
nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
Hi, The Suicide is programmed actually and uses Kontakt sounds. I have a large number of manuscripts which I created in college and shortly after (before 90's no computer program I had could let me score reasonably). In this case, The Suicide, was scored at an upright piano and I could play it at the time. Its really easy to play.
The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
still one of my personal faves. - although i'd wish to redo some parts, i'm stuck with this version, since i don't own one of the synths used there anymore..

If you have the fever and the only cure is more tambourine, here it is.
MORE TAMBOURINE SOLOS!! (But you should probably wait until you have the house to yourself...)
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Gorgeous!
Sweet interaction between the voice and music - "delightful" indeed! Loving Bee in classical mode.
Nice one, Both! Sounds delightful indeed. Tess (Sister S)
Very interesting book and I found your composition perfect for it. Very clever stuff, Chris!
Oh, they are so cute! We have some living down the road and Danny brought the blonde female in to see me. Well, I want one now don't I!! Oh, great track, by the way.
Great song Chris! Ha, love the heavy metal bit. Great bass!
Nice one dig it.
you can't beat a bit of feedback to add some atmosphere..........
excellent........
Thus spake Kafka. Very cool!
Honoured to be the first listener to this monumental piece.
Well it went out with a bang. :)
Mournful, beautifully played.
Easy on the catnip, Puss!
O my it's leaving? Well you can make another. Great sound.
What a hair raising trip, but the scenery is so beautiful. I can't get over how quiet your roads are. The music is wonderfully traditional sounding folk.
Yeah, cheerio canon! Well, will you just look at that cat!
oooh!! sweet Irene she sure knows the blues.....
bad into.
The closing round was delightful as was the udderbot in the final song. I should probably make an udderbot...

Sam sounds like one of the Indigo Girls :-) Very nice song everyone!
this is very good - like the solid vocal harmonies and leads.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
This is a great tune - I love the percussion and the deep deep sounds.
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
nicely done - sounds a bit floydish. Introspective Roger Waters.
all of the compositions are wonderful - I feel emotion from your work.
this is a very nice progression against a pedal point and exposition. I agree the room acoustics are really great - it sounds great!!
very classical period sounding.
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-) nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
wow - this is complicated!! and cool!

wonderful!! So this is in part classical guitar? If so great tone!
bizarrely the opening bass riff sounds like the theme to green acres - a usa 60's sitcom.
sounds like my ferrets playing!
excellent!
yes! love the sounds here
this is nice indeed!!
one of my personal favorites too :-)
Dude! You own this place!!
