Re: Scipio

As this Challenge is to play a piece of music that tells a 'story', some of you may be wondering what the 'story' is behind this classical piece, which was composed by Handel and performed as an opera. The Clemency of Scipio is an episode in the life of the Roman general Scipio Africanus, recounted ...

Re: Through the years

Ron,

Your music is very soothing to listen to. What a fabulous arrangement! Using a FreeStyle for this has really brought out those harmonies. And I love the STRINGS. They really do give 'body' to the whole piece.

A lovely, romantic song!

Re: Two little boys

Ron, Well done for finding a suitable picture to go with this piece .. two little boys! Loved that 'drum' intro, and the start of the song with the whistle (?). Just right for the start of the song.

Re: Largo

Ken,

Your version of Handel's Largo was soft and pleasing to the ear. And the organ clips you had in your video were perfect for the piece you were playing. Really enjoyed listening.

Re: What would a real BASS player play when accompanying you

My one (little?) problem ... My fault! I had pressed the STOP for the Multipad just after the first beat of the next bar. So that's why I had a bar of silence before it came in again. You have to STOP the Multipad a fraction before the end of the bar . So just recording the BASS part for one verse ...

Re: What would a real BASS player play when accompanying you

The advantage of setting up a MULTIPAD using Method 2 above (with the CHORD MATCH ON ) is that it will give you the bass pattern in whatever key you play your piece in. The disadvantage is that all the notes you want to hear have to be put in as 'intervals' with C as the root. Takes a bit of working...

Re: What would a real BASS player play when accompanying you

Ron, You are right in what you say. The notes to be played for the BASS in that particular script were based on having the MULTIPAD in CHORD MATCH mode. This means the Miultipad will play it's 'pattern of notes' based on the chord you are actually playing at the time . To work in this mode, you have...

When I create my MULTIPAD I need a VOICE set up in R1 . From the BASS section I have chosen LowBass (...
