Just to make more work for you, would you consider both versions? The first one as written at 192, and those who can (or want to try) go for it too. You cull the submissions for the best fit and shazam shazam, just like an audition! That way harrisonreed gets his F5 to Bb5 at speed like a wild man! And I can try to handle the triplets - and you can cull me when I blow it.

(Loan me a contra and I'll try bass3 and or 4 - oh but you already have Nio Bri)

I actually saved my original version before I made any cuts to make it easier. It's very excessive, just a warning.

Plus, while I'm fine volunteering for more work, that creates more work for Mike.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2020 7:23 pm**

One version please. I really just want to record once.

What he said.

I see we've slowed down a few clicks (q=174).

Thanks for taking out the off-beats. I could probably get them but not in time.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2020 7:59 pm**

Just FYI, I am on vacation next week, so if y’all want a backing track with the new version, I need to get the midi by Saturday. Otherwise it will be next weekend.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2020 8:25 pm**

I'll put up the new MIDI tomorrow, give everyone a day to review changes.

Posted: **Fri Nov 06, 2020 10:29 pm**

Updated MIDI and parts are up.

I'm only finding the old backing tracks at original tempo. Am I looking in wrong place?

Posted: **Sat Nov 07, 2020 5:09 pm**

I don't think they are up yet. Looks like the tempo is good to go though right? Measure=57

Posted: **Sat Nov 07, 2020 6:10 pm**

OK ladies and gents - here are the new backup tracks. One with click and one without.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

You can upload your recordings to that same folder.

I would like to say a big thanks to Joey for taking time to make the changes to this tune. He could have told us all to take a hike - instead he spent what I am sure is tons of his time modifying it to make it a bit more accessible.

No problem at all. By the way, Harrison, you have a bit of a shout-out in the score, not sure if you saw.

I saw it too. Doesn't show up in the part, though.

Harrison, if you need it maybe try a soprano?

Without having trawled through the whole topic I see that Tenor 2 is still free, anyone mind if I sign up for it?

Go for it. We can still use up to 2 players per part, so if anyone else out there wants to play, or if you want to do more than one part, have fun. I even tried to get Jim Nova (AKA the overdub king) to play with us, but he said he had too many of his own projects going on.

Posted: **Sun Nov 08, 2020 8:13 am**

Also, here is the link to the parts in case you lost it:

Great, I‘ve put my name down for tenor 2. If more than two others decide they‘re really keen on tenor 2, I don‘t mind moving/swapping to most parts other than the super-low stuff.

Posted: **Sun Nov 08, 2020 5:55 pm**

When you guys upload your videos, drop me an email at mikebmiller @ gmail. com and let me know it is up there. Also, tell me where you live and I will put all that in the credits.

Posted: **Mon Nov 09, 2020 5:38 pm**

Is there a dead line?

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 6:45 am**

Let’s try to get the videos in by Thanksgiving.

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 9:07 am**

I'm going to wait for a little bit until everyone definitely agrees on the arrangement and tempo. If you have trepidation about the technical elements of your part, please look at it now and speak about it. If everyone is cool, we're good to go. But it would be a bummer if people recorded their parts only to realize a change was later necessary. Everyone have a look and let's agree. My part is okay - I'm committed to that (I won't change my mind).

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 9:09 am**

Happy to run with Tenor 4 as is.

You grabbed the new versions of everything, right? I was going to email them to you later today.

I had to google when this is. Google says 26 November.

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 1:06 pm**

I can cover anything needed in the tenor or alto departments.

Doug - just grab any part you want that doesn’t already have two people in it,

Two of my lesson teachers playing the piece I arranged now! I'm very excited!

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 4:18 pm**

I'm going to try to record on friday.

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 7:42 pm**

I can jump in too if needed. I can try to record over the weekend.

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2020 8:07 pm**

I forgot to ask, how dry do you want this recording? I was planning on having a normal amount of room sound in there

Posted: **Wed Nov 11, 2020 6:25 am**

I will probably add just a bit of reverb once the whole thing is mixed. So dry is fine. Most of us don’t have concert halls available to record in.

Posted: **Wed Nov 11, 2020 2:38 pm**

Tenor 4 uploaded now! I might have another crack at it next week if I think I can do better, but I'm having some large-ish dental work done tomorrow so I'm not sure when my chops will be back in shape again.

Can't wait to hear the finished product!

Posted: **Thu Nov 12, 2020 5:55 pm**

Getting into this recording just now, the click track clicks are early in regards to the midi. By about this much:

DSC_0537.JPG

It's enough so that you can't play along with the midi, which is too late. Would you mind if I resync the click and upload? I can do this before too many people record.

Posted: **Thu Nov 12, 2020 6:53 pm**

I sent the tracks to mike, in case he wants to swap them in. Totally his choice! Going to record now!

Posted: **Thu Nov 12, 2020 8:25 pm**

I will upload them tomorrow. I have been working on another pro for my community band tonight.

Posted: **Fri Nov 13, 2020 2:04 am**

My part is up! There is some weird crud in the dead space of the audio that must be from the rendering of the video. I might try to re encode the video, but at least I've got something useable up.

Posted: **Fri Nov 13, 2020 6:48 am**

I uploaded Harrisons amended click track. His has one beat per bar instead of three. Feel free to use whichever one suits your fancy.

Posted: **Sat Nov 14, 2020 4:58 pm**

Anyone making any progress?

Posted: **Sat Nov 14, 2020 6:09 pm**

Can you suggest an app I can use on a Windoze or Linux laptop to record both video and audio? I can do one but not the other.

Bruce most people are just using smartphones of some sort these days. Windows has a camera app that you can use to record. I tried it once and didn't like it. You can record audio to the PC easily using something like Audacity and an external mic.

Sure, record the audio into your DAW (audacity or whatever) and have OBS running at the same time, recording your webcam. Or just do the audio on your pc and video on a camera or phone. You can sync the audio using the claps.

OK. I used Audacity several years ago for a project at Night School (course in digital music) but we didn't need to incorporate video. I learned Audacity and Ableton (Live 8). Haven't had an opportunity to do this since.

I'll give the phone a try.

Posted: **Sat Nov 14, 2020 7:38 pm**

Just a note to Bruce and anyone else shooting with a phone. I have done a few of these videos lately and I can tell you what works and what doesn't. If you are shooting with a phone and don't have a tripod or other stand, please try to get someone else to hold it for you. Try to get your whole upper body in the shot. Those videos where people just put the phone on the music stand and use the front camera often don't look good and sometimes look like the viewer is staring up your nose. And try not to have too much junk in the background. Also, don't have a bright light in the background as it can get very washed out looking.

Posted: **Sun Nov 15, 2020 6:35 am**

I just recorded and uploaded alto 2. For now only the audio, I will do the video separately and upload asap. Hope that's okay?

Posted: **Sun Nov 15, 2020 7:35 am**

Works for me.

You mean I shouldn't put a GoPro camera on the slide?
