![]() ![]() If you have a positive opinion, then express it, but I’d be grateful if you’d try not to impute conspiratorial motives to people who simply don’t exhibit them, and who are entitled to their opinion. What you’re doing is simply bullying, and it would be good if you got over it. I’m not accusing either you, AlBrown, or you, mimicabin, of behaving like “packs of wolves”. ![]() And it’s bullying of the worst kind to suggest that I’m not entitled to an opinion just because that opinion happens to be negative. It’s not that they’re a “good start” or even a “bad start”, really - it’s that it’s completely the wrong direction. These sort of sound samples are, in my personal opinion, after having discussed this with nobody else on the, or off it, for that matter, a dreadful way to set someone off learning the music. This is nothing to do with “packs of wolves” or people ganging up. And most of them are a damn’ sight better than this one.Ģ The quality itself. In what way? There are plenty of sites with sound clips plus notation. ![]() Plus the claims that it’s “new” and “unique”. “It’s the Irish music tutor you’ve being waiting for all your life.” I mean, c‘mon! That’s bound to get a negative reaction when the site you click on is so bloody awful. In my opinion.īut the reaction here is, at least as far as I’m concerned, for two reasons:ġ Reaction against hubris. You can’t learn this music out of a book, so the audio ought to be the centre of the thing. I don’t think what the book is like has any relevance. I hope the developers will continue to improve what they have done. If you are going to advertise ABC I think you should use it, and not some bastardized means of sort of showing note names using a different scheme. More problematic to me is that, at least in the free Tutor lesson, the page does NOT show notation and ABC. Cure you can overdo and expect the sort of playing at sessions that are in this tutor, but I suspect the folks at the session would quickly change that. As I’ve said before here I think you can pick up the tune patterns from things like this and then get the right interpretations from going to sessions. I’d suggest they developers take a look at adapting the capabilities now in abc2MIDI to get rid of some of that rigidity. Well, I guess they are MIDI tracks, but they ARE rather good sounding ones. Re: New and Unique approach to learn Session Music I’m sure the hate will be directed at me now for putting my two cents in. ![]() It will sound much better, add cred to the project and probably result in more sales.Ĭhill out people, no one is putting a gun to your head. My advice (if the author is reading this) is to try to record the tracks with an actual musician, even if it only includes a quarter of the tunes. The one thing I will say about it from listening to the tracks is that have midi sound tracks accompanying a book is probably not the best way to go even though it may seem like the easiest method of producing something. Isn’t this suppose to be some sort of community? Hmmm…. Never seen so many haters on a forum before. It’s interesting how many ‘experts’ are on this site and how quick so many people are to bad mouth something, especially when they even haven’t seen it. You know the old saying “if you don’t have anything good to say…”. My advice to anyone who really wants to critique it is to buy the book. Well I’m not sure about the claims of the book but I think it’s pretty funny/ridiculous of all the bad rap it gets from people that havent seen the book. ![]()
