The recruitment of a Disc Jockey Hearing is believing

The recruitment of a Disc Jockey Hearing is believing Many "How to hire a Disc Jockey" articles overlook one of the most important criteria for the selection of entertainment. His ears.Forget control of a business license (anyone can get one), or approval from some distance, "official" DJ association. Send your contribution, and take his animatore too.Whether is "certified" on paper or not, as your sound system is essential. Most DJs are not experts in the technical field of sound specifications. You may not know that the signal to noise ratio, total harmonic distortion and frequency response is. The truth is that often developed a DJ sound system is limited to what can afford to spend. Sound The result can be high (too high), unclear or "muddy", and also distorted.This come into play is if the ears have a live audition in order to devote himself as the team's DJ looks and sounds. We always offer a life experience for our customers. This is the only way to know if you like. If the DJ is not willing to "listen" to you, because it can be embarrassed by the appearance or quality of their audio equipment. This is a red flag.Have future DJ play a song you know. Do you think that incorporating a bass, drums, keyboards and vocals in order to obtain a wide range of sounds. Dance songs are usually good. Ask your time, the DJ for a moment. Now close your eyes and listen.You not be an expert in acoustics to know if you like. It 'hot or full cable and "tinny". Sounds like an AM radio or more like what can be heard in a movie theater? It 'the foundation of recovery, but not overwhelming, allowing the media room and high? Brass are too high, the cry of dogs and babys cry? They are mid-range (vocals) is enough? This is the sound is flat or "bottom"? Remember, this is what you and your guests all night long.While heard the sound can be improved through the use of equalizers and Sonic stimulators, the right key speakers. Whether it's JBL, Yamaha, Mackie, and others, have their own characteristic sound speakers. And outside of the brand, budget speakers are often missing the sound DJ quality.Ask because it has chosen the speakers you have. Often, great sound, not brand speakers are much more expensive than low-end, the budget cabinets. If the DJ is here scrimping to save a few dollars, what else is cutting coers? I personally do not like the "ping" sound of brass or silver (high) or too low (low). For me, the midrange is where the melody and I like to hear. Warm and full voice, keyboards and guitar with the ups and downs that acts as a complement Bookends. For example, focus on listening to the voice of Sinatra in his low player.Now download the audio you want. You already are an expert as she was listening to all forms of life. Doing a little 'a home and feel safe in their event approaches, knowing your guests a complete audio satisfaction! DJ-Craig has performed in clubs in the air and now works exclusively for private parties. More than half a million people have enjoyed their sound and lighting at special events during the past 15 years. It 'been a guest speaker at classes in coordinating weddings and events.

It is the reading of music

It is the reading of music If you have music that you have read the deciphering the printed page and transferring the information to the keyboard. One can say that you decode what the composer and arranger has on the page. The symbols on the paper by the composer, are the only medium that has taken his musical ideas for artists, so that the listener.But! Decoding is a page of notes and the transfer of symbols to sound really music? Not necessarily. This is just one step. One could say that reading the notes with our eyes and play with your fingers, the mechanics at work. If we stop to consider just the piece we are fluent enough in playing the note reads, you can make a good keyboard mechanics, but can not be used as a "musician". No doubt you have heard a pianist and Come Away to say "that the benefits really out of me." On the other hand, you have probably heard a lot, the so-called "music" that has left a cold?, That nothing for you. Perhaps one reason why we want to hear "ear" player is the fact that listening to what they play and not on the printed page. "ear" The players have a tu, or who had no idea of what comes after. The music is really talking to them. Always remember that as long as the music speaks for the players, can not do everything at listener.What is all this has to do with reading music? You ask: 'It is wrong to try to lea to read? Since I can not play by ear, I just want to forget leaing to play? "The first question is a little 'us closer to the printed page to listen good. Do not forget that the musician must be a good listener, if not the most important of all listeners. If, as you, so as to deepen in the press notes, their height, their time, which affect the dynamics?, That you forget that all these things must be together as a whole, a good story sound, then have player a suggestion, not a musician. But you must lea to read fluently, if you're not playing by ear.There are relatively few people can play from memory or by ear everything on the page, complete and accurate. But do not feel, touch and moths on the items in the rough because they have leaed how to "fake", as their mistakes, so the average listener is not aware of their bloopers.So you suggest? Lea, be a good player. Not only a good reader letters, a number of readers. Be aware of everything on the page, but read between the lines. Like a good actor who is himself the role of the project and your feelings to your listeners. Do not just stop with the development of reading and passage of time. Add these little nuances, the delicate colors of the band, the elasticity of tempothe rates that characterize your musical history. These are the things that make music printed page.Now you know the answer. It is not wrong to lea to read fluently. Reading, as well as a good technique, is an important part of the musicians craft. And the more automatic reading and technology will become easier to lea new music. This is obviously a great advantage for fluent readers about the ear-player? The player says that we can lea new music that he or she has never heard.Perhaps your second question is also answered. Of course you can listen to music, even if you have any reference to excavate sentence sentence. Some tips may help you decide how to select your music and how to lea.

Really Simple guitar can

Really Simple guitar can Are on a mission. To convert convert.To guitarists and aspiring guitarists to open-D. It is the mood so important guitar in recent decades, but too often neglected, so that from the mainstream. Standard tuning has a stranglehold activity leaing guitar. The reason for me to stay unclear.As a starting point, voting is the logical choice. What easier way to play the guitar, but with an important deal? How much trust can be an aspiring guitar player (of all ages, but more on that later) must be able to play like a beautiful string sound without fingers on the Bund? That? S, what you get when you open tuning.My with a personal story went like this. Frustrated beginner guitarist (? Beginners? For the years!). It is not the guitar for years. It is the research (eg, reading magazines guitar). Achieved many of the Great played in alteate tunings (Richard K., J. Mitchell, James E., R. Johnson, R. Cooder, J. Page, etc, etc). Re-Tunes guitar until it finds one that works? Open-E. Soon! Light bulb tus on, is a guitarist best hatched.Open mood, quite often, in magazine articles, transcripts, books and the like. But only very rarely or never experienced that I have an encouraging their use as stand-alone for the guitar (my God, Keith also switch to the development of new standards and new!). And open-D, the most logical starting point of all, it is rarely mentioned. I have 20 years of public performance, which all come to me and say? ? How about this? They play, like me, in open D?. People come, but the comments are almost always? Of course, some fun chord positions? o? They play in a different mood?. Surprisingly many guitarists connect? Open tuning? with? difficult?. Nothing could be further from the truth. Certainly, the transition from the standard is rather 'the atmosphere of a leaing curve, but once? Once again, there, POW! You? Ll not want to play any other way (even if only to add controls to an open vote on the standard tuning is a huge step). This brings us back to the beginner. No matter what the age, a beginner, if 6 or 60 years open-D is an easier way to play the guitar. It is so obvious. Concentrate on the strum with your fingers on the keyboard, and then the way to a finger on the keyboard (the basic Regulation "great agreement in the Open-E is just a finger). What a way to build confidence early. The truth is, and I am living proof that it was never about the coverage standard tuning. But if you wanted? And only a small tweak standard? Type of drop-D tuning with three other minor adjustments, back and forth, and a standard EADGBE Dadfar # A D. question? Why Open-E, then all possible points of departure? The absolute easiest choice for a better understanding of the theory, harmony and the key could open CGCEGC C, but is rather 'floppy sound like the guitar strings are loosened. Go in the direction on Open-E # BE EBEG could move too far in the direction where it is? S is used. Open-D seems to be the perfect choice! To accompany the singers want to, obviously, is a matter of vocal range of tuning the guitar. A Cape May order.Frank Foxx is a semi-professional guitarist who plays exclusively in the spirit of Open-E. He has a guitar method book, extolling the virtues of what he sees as the most versatile and easiest of all guitar tunings, entitled Guitar-eze easier for the guitar. His website is He keeps a blog about helping guitarists and aspiring guitarists see the light.

Five Great Practice Ideas I learned from my Piano Students

Five Great Practice Ideas I leaed from my Piano Students Sometimes the teacher by the students that the student not the teacher. I hope not too often but today I will give you some good ideas to the practice, which by my piano students over the years: 1 A Colonel in Virginia that I taught for several years, has a maximum of 4 a day, moing and practiced on a electronic keyboard with headphones, so he does not disturb anyone at this time of the moing. "I love the moing," he said, "because it is so quiet and peaceful, and are fresh and in blocks. N. phones ringing, no people walking into the room, no noise at all. I practice for half an hour before breakfast, and then for a half 'hours - first of all I started to show for work. When I go home at night, when I too tired to practice, I do not feel guilty because I have my licks in for the day. And if I have a little 'practice - well, it's a prize! "2 An elementary school teacher in Indiana told me that every piece I have mapped and their implementation in all 12 keys - not written, but at the piano - in his head. He said: "It is not always so hot, the clay, but I find that if I do every day, I can at least from the more difficult keys, and makes it easier for buttons seem real simple. It gives me a perspective that I just do not get it, I played in one key - the key is in. I have leaed that each key has its own feel, and some keys are bright (eg "D" ) and some are soft keys (such as "db") .3. A piano student with a similar idea, the minister of music in a Catholic church, said that one month of the year and to enable them to cope with a single button. Since there are 12 months a year and a 12-key E-flat Major, works perfectly. So in January, has played everything that could be key in C and implemented, something that is not in C, in C. In February, he went to 1 / 2 of the most important step of C # (aka Db enharmonically) and played all over the database and searched for the key piece in the DB, and so forth. With time was the year he had a pretty fair understanding of the 12 major keys. I suggested that he is next year to 12 minor-key, and the following year for the ways and the next year polytonality, etc., etc. - but, as I remember, he decided, just by recycling the 12 major keys because he uses it so much that suggested.4. Another student of the piano has an idea about me and a little 'twisted. I suggested that they, together with the pieces they like to play cassettes and CDs, so that they feel a movement for the title. (I have to do now, when I was a teenager, and that has paid off big time for me!). He took the idea and I tried and liked so much that they started a video of people playing the piano. they arranged her TV and video player, so that it is their plan, while the video was played, and would, together with the pianist on the screen after the hand and arm movements and movements of the fingers and then one for feel the flow of music. (Patteing). Your creativity pays for them - is progressing rapidly. (and by the way, do not believe they are "copying" the person said - and not at all. It 'the same principle, just as Michael Jordan on the way to the basket, or even a Sammy Sosa bat swing -- is only in the right groove your style first.) 5th A physician, I have taught for years the idea of file things that he leaed to play piano over the years.

Growing up in a soup stone Legend

Growing up in a soup stone Legend The biggest thing you have to worry about is that there are many - too many - of the groups trying to climb the ladder. What you need exposure. Promotion and publicity comes at a premium. There is a storm in the street. You are caught in a Blizzard Entertainment. The first is towards the center, the closest to reaching the top, at least, see and be seen. It 's like a white winter. The place where most people give up. Ah, but the winners live in the eye of the cyclone where it is quiet and calm. These centers are safe. Those who are particularly well known, there is no need for noise and anxiety. They continue to maintain and the people around them work. Emerging artists can not afford the high cost of marketing professionals. Better collaboration with those who can. This is the core, the place between too much and too little, and the haves are poor. Promotion, or lack thereof, are the reason why can not more bands. Beyond advertising, in addition to handling commercial, the artist needs to find an audience and the audience needs to find him. Years ago, I discovered a principle of marketing that can make a difference in the world between success and failure. A popular story is told of a man who had been a long jouey. After the lack of food, it was exhausted and hungry from his jouey. When he arrived at a small village, he thought: "Maybe someone could share some 'food." When the man knocked at the first house, asked the woman who replied: "Could you spare a little' to food? I have come a long way and I am very hungry. "" I'm sorry, but I have nothing to give you, "replied the woman. Therefore, the passenger went next door and asked again. The answer is the same. E 'went door to door and each time it was hijacked. Not one of the villagers are willing to oblige the man as the times were tough, and has much to lose. But then a villager, said: "Everything I have is a bit 'of water." "Thanks," he says smiling couple with gratitude: "We can make a soup of water. We can make stone soup. " He asked the man in the pot and began building a small fire. As the water began to boil, the passing of a villager arrested and asked him what he was doing. "I am the stone soup," said the traveler. "Do you want to join me?" The curious villagers agree. "First, we need to add a stone," said Young. "One of magic." He reached his knapsack and carefully removed a stone, has been running for many years. Then put in the pot boiling. Soon, the villagers heard of this strange man who made the soup a stone. They began to gather around the fire, to ask questions. "What's your flavor of stone soup?" He asked one of the villagers. "Well, it would be better with a couple of onions," admitted the traveler. "Oh, I have some onions," he replied. Another villager said, "I was able to bring some 'carrots." Someone else offered, we still have a lot of potatoes in our garden. I'm going to do. "One by one, each villager has something to add to the pot. What began as a po 'of water and a magic stone, has become a delicious soup, enough to feed the entire village. The travelers and the villagers came together to enjoy their feast, and the miracle that help to create. In the great blizzard of stars and they want to be in a dense fog of sound that envelops the music industry, artists - even great - must find a way to get heard .. Bob Dylan has found a way. Apocalyptic visionary, who came from small towns anywhere, magic stone Dylan - its aura of mystery - of soup tued into a legend. Dennis Walsh progressofmusic@hotmail.com

Five steps to a beautiful song on the piano I like playing the piano, but are increasingly frustrated with only being able to play what is in front of you. N. sheet music, not the game. Oh just in terms of EB? So sorry that I can not play. This sound like you? Several years ago, could not only play the sheet music for piano in front of me. If I looked at music from a fraction of the time I lost my home. I was only comfortable in the key of C, F, D and G. times and Bb. But I wanted to play and smile at the congregation of my church. Or check the cult leader to see if you should add another verse. Then he started to lea Pachelbel Canon in D After hearing? A study on D scale. It opened our eyes to the beauty of improvisation or a song on the piano. Here are five important things to remember to help you do the same. 1.Lea and practices in all scales. Nobody likes that. It is not fun, but it can greatly increase your fitness game if they are diligent. 2.Lea agreements and practices. Particularly odd, as decreased, increased 6ths etc. These can quickly give color and style of their songs. 3.Fake it. Use a fake book to play. This will encourage you to add the melody and harmony, because only a symbol and a melody line in front of you. The sound is very dry it will be justified. 4th Use any piano.

Are independent Voiceover Artist collects all the benefits of technology It 'hard enough for more active VoiceOver industry, let alone trying to cope with the evolving technological aspects. But I assure you, is a must for those of us who live with our voices.Hardware is in perpetual state of flux with businesses in competition with each other. While these companies have taken note, in its board of directors creative process, some are already, or have developed some of the neatest new tools ever. What I'm saying is that the course, the bottom line and profits are the impetus of the colors. But the creative types really want VoiceOver artist or producer, the latest and greatest technology in an effort to promote our work easier and convenient.Mobile production is gaining momentum in VoiceOver. This VoiceOver Artists, their customers must be a moment of communication, provided that the customer needs VoiceOver yesterday. Before the production of mobile technology, VoiceOver artist remained in his study of 365 days a year. Not only is the money for the artists is VoiceOver. And 'the prestige and pride that the situation for their clients. Well, the VoiceOver Artists only need a few pieces of gear to pack that the rest of the limitations of their study. Enjoy a weekend in the form of vacation. Holidays? Yes, leave. Oh, you will receive calls while on the beach or hitting the slopes. But, you only need a short break to meet the needs of customers. You have a little 'money to pay for the holidays you've had and the needs of customers and receive their business.One last pieces of gear simply amazed me.

It 's all there. No need to pack more of a hard-shell cases, suitcases full of equipment for the road. But it is not cheap!

Remember, what you only pay for the codec - let alone the general taxes? I know it is a software solution on the horizon, the place that the need for additional rack in your studio and the cost is far from what you pay for your or your Comrex Telos!

Solutions for Your Music Heard

Solutions for Your Music Heard Simple solutions to free themselves known ... I read an article in a popular magazine the other day and noticed that you should spend hundreds of musicians from advertising costs to occur. True.Is there another way? Well, it is. What we have for all of us is the Inteet. This medium is very understated, which is the key to unbelieveable.The itself to itself is known via the Inteet. Argue that the Inteet is a piece of bread, a Bagel .... hmm ... yum.Sorry, stay with me, you need them. If you bought a couple really nice, the cost is $ 100 and are only one quarter of Bagel (for example the food is expensive, not too far). Now you have just one bite, just a coincidence that one and one, so that accidentally bite the Bagel, and more than likely, it's much less likely, that if you spend less money for such distribution and use E 'a matter of bagel.Now is what happens, someone always on Inteet protocols. They have a shot, tued a few samples and too much money in one area is a bad idea. So, what to do? Well, the most important thing is not for money, if possible. If you distribute your music, then do so. Sign up for all MP3 hosting sites that are there are so many hours on the Inteet that are free and fresh incentives (such as unlimited bandwidth, hardrive space and the like). The more, the more likely it is that you can not miss anyone.This the technical possibility of the site is paid down, the gaps in the future, or less space in the search engines (with lots of competition This is an opportunity to high) . The second phase, be sure to have its own website. On each page a link to your website, then this increases the rate of PR with search engines and increase your link status (eg number of connections is more). You also have the freedom of movement for many years by these attractive sites.Make your site, blog and newsletter offering, also known as "leaders" do it yourself and articles. Why? Well, if someone on your site and not the probability very low, and then you have lost. This is why the newsletters and blogs are so important to meet the unique visitors again to check up on your website, without them the search for new (very unlikly). One thing I never understood if research in MP3 hosting sites is that people have a certain number of their work on a page? "All right and good, and much praise for this, but I think that this is a waste of Inteet Real Estate. Your site must be targeted, your name should be targeted. I'm into techno, etc, so it's rare that I hunt jazz songs. But this is what I do when I'm on a website techno-artist. My suggestion would be to get something for every genre, what you do. For example: For all your DJ disco electronic music, land for your New Age music, the fields for your country and weste music ... Idea.Having receive a separate name for each of your target styles 2-3 (or however many genres you) times more potential visitors a 100-200% increase in visitors to download. But for any position of any other, just in case. You can also own web pages for each genre in general. Most people in the world as an artist to do so. For example: Digital Les rhythms, the "Jacques Body (Make Me Sweat)" - a cool techno song, and Stuart Price are the same. Who is Stuart Price? Madonna the new manufacturer, under his real name. The KLF, the doctors in the Tardis, and the legitimate acient mumu (no joke) are one of same.Diversify to be known to all that you can hold and for the addition of large music.If you want more information on new artists unsigned, according to a review or even suggest an artist can be found on the side of the Unsigned Artist techno. Get free Mp3s and unsigned artists and how to record or techno-artists. Domenico website also guides for free sampling, mp3s, loop and more.

To copy digital recordings old

To copy digital recordings old I can not believe how bad Caruso and others have been copied from the experts! Often, technical or intellectual, copies of old recordings to make voice horrible wrong speed, contact, and for the fine ear, unrecognizable. Here are some comments on the old recordings. I will also cover ways to improve the sound of copy.Make that the old disc is clean. Clean the dust gently with a camel hair brush.If you have a mechanical device, like an old Victrola, set the microphone about 18 "in front of the audio cable. Try a couple of records to see exactly where to place the microphone of the car less noise.I think Edison disc was recorded on 80 rpms. Not you. The trick is to record the disc in a deck of Edison that has a variable pitch control. After obtaining an acceptable recording playback, clear the field of control of a few notches.Here 's part of the trap. All tracks are recorded on a "key". That is to say, the note must be a note on a piano or other musical instrument. If you're not a musician, trying to have a friend who knows a little 'music. If you have a keyboard, which would help too.Now when playing the tape, trying to find the "key" on the piano or keyboard. If this does not make much sense. Stop! Download music to help a friend. What you should do is try to find the "key" in the song. If the music sounds flat, tu the control to step forward. If the music sounds great, tu the pitch control backwards.Remember, country songs of today are not in F #, which will probably be in F major. There should be G #, etc. Use your ear to approximate the "key" then the original speed.You just want Bumb speed rpm replicated in two boxes RMPS. Sooo .. Take it easy, you can go beyond the original key. Do not move the tone control too far. This will take some time to get the feeling it.Victor phonograph records with other records were recorded on mechanical machines. I heard that record to 76 RPM. not sure. Try to blow the field of control to get the right "key". If music can be downloaded free of copyright, such as public domain material. Later, you can convert the analog signal into a tape drive with a tone control and do the work to get the right speed. Some of these recordings are made on the web pretty well, except for the right speed. In other words, they have done most of the work for you.Good luck. I believe that we will have a blast fuace to preserve the past! Gene Smith has worked with the recorded sound of 45 years. He has written several songs published and produced several albums floor. He operates his recording studio in West Virginia.Article Source:
