Hi
Just a sample of some music i started this morning. This is not the kind of music I normally play, it was just what came up at that moment, when testing some funktions in Synfire. There is not used any midifiles, I recorded and did some edits to test Synfire, thats it.
Let me know what you think?

I dont really know if this is the right tread to post music, so if it is wrong then im sorry.

I worked a little more with Ocean Of Joy, I Changed the harmony in some parts, The Rhythm in the last bass part. Used the Strech in at least one piano part "very nice". The Step, Shift, Transpose and Pause in the piano too .

Yes, it is very pleasant to listen to and keeps your attention. keep working on it, it's off to a great start. You could make an expirement of this piece. Keep going back to it, as you learn new processes and commands, try to interface them with this example . In fact if you keep all the versions, and a simple explanation of what you incorporated in each version, it would be helpful to you and others. Perhaps you could keep posting the development of the piece. It would make for fascinating study,
For instance you could add another chord progression or transposition into part of it. . Counter point and some harmony too. Often the best way to learn is to just play, expirement and have fun. But make note when you stumble upon a realization.
I think I've had SFP about a year now. I have learnt some, but there is a lot more to go. What it has done for me and many of others here is expose them to new concepts and ways to deal with music.
I found this site:
(http://www.northernsounds.com/forum/forumdisplay.php/77-Principles-of-O…)
It has a free online course on composing, actually two, one on classical and one on jazz. I'm slowly going thru that and finding the command counterparts in SFP (harmonically HNN can do about the same job). It's really opening up a whole new way to look at music. I admit frustation and confusion about all of this. but on other days when the light bulb goes on, and I learn something new.. REJOICE.
I've been an arranger, producer, recording engineer for all my life. The other day a background singer came in, she laid in three harmonies, and was a bit confused on where to go from there. For the first time in my LONG career, it very quickly dawned on me to add the two parts - which is the third an octave up (an 11th?), and a sixth, When she did it perfectly fit into my arrangement of the instruments. This would never had happened if I hadn't been studing SFP.
Keep it up..

Hi
Thanks markstyles, for your comment. I think I will do that, when I come back to Sweden and sit in front of the computer. Its a great idea, Thanks.
