I've got you on my list for the summer! And I'm still going to work on that song of yours if you want! I'm really sorry I didn't get to it.

FAWM Zoom...just a few people today...but the time change has some people coming in late.

Hi, I just tried to play the demo of my Soliloquy and it worked fine. I double checked by listening on my phone too. Maybe the problem is your end. I hope you get to hear it. Let me know if you do with a comment on the song's page.

thanks Reinder, i was trying to move up a bit from the -14 LUFS which always sound weedy next to others, heard a few cases for -10 LUFS which is what i have been going for - but maybe too much? or maybe just those stutter effects push it momentarily. Thanks for feedback!

to be honest I do not have the sophistication level to do much useful with the stems, haha, but thank you for offering.

thanks! :) once it's done do you prefer that I just post it as a new collab? and is it all right with you if the title ends up changing in my version depending on how the lyrics go?

Sounds good, I emailed you!

Hey @reinderd I am confused by your drum track for the #digital4track, it comes out at 140 bpm for me, as opposed to @bradbrubaker 's 116, can you check if it's as intended by you?

Well done...I hope you are feeling better Reinderd. Thx

Hi @reinderd, as luck would have it, I haven't started yet, so knock yourself out 😄

Hey @reinderd ! I see you are the person after me for #digital4track thread number 2. I have put my stems over at Bandcamp, where you should be able to download as a wav.

As you will hear, I recorded a vocal part. One stem is the vocals naked; the other has a hi-hat as guidance for lining the track up. 146 bpm. 4/4

I am not well-versed in music theory. I cannot tell you the key I am in. What I can tell you is the notes I am singing.

Notes for intro fade in: A# / C / D Notes for the first three lines of the chorus are all D / C / A# / G. Notes for the last line of the chorus are the above, plus F and a low D#.

Obviously, the non-chorus is spoken, so no notes there.

The singing on the chorus starts on count 2, not 1.

Questions? Let me know!

Thanks a lot for stopping by! I just googled the band you named. They make quite interesting prog, I didn't know them yet!

Hi, answering your question about my tracking of solar panels here rather than the thread. I developed a spreadsheet to track the numbers in the power company meter and my inverter output readings to answer questions I was getting about return on investment, and to learn more about our own electricity usage and how that is affected by running the heater, air conditioner, and charging our electric cars.

Hi Reinder, just wanted to say thanks for that Newgrounds link you shared – I'm reading it right now, very interesting and useful stuff!

Veel plezier!

Good to see you here, Reinder. Happy FAWMing!!

Welcome back Reinder!

Hey Reinder, I follow you on Mastodon – great to see you here too!

Hi Reinder. Good to see you here too!

good to see you Reinder! Have fun! (I have a song whose singalong at the end (mass impro) is "I can't sing - but I sing anyway"
