.:: TuxGuitar ::. Open Source Tablature Editor :: TuxGuitar Akai MPK49 Pad Modification A few years ago I did a light review of the Akai MPK49 MIDI keyboard controller. Subsequently I bought one and I've been happily using it since. However one thing consistently bugged me (and everyone else) about the design - the drum "pads" are terrible. You have to hit them quite hard to even register a hit, let alone a loud one. Because I'd never really used such pads before, it didn't bother me too much. But Kong is coming... So when I saw these two threads on the Propellerhead User Forum, I knew I had to give this a try. This video is a nice guide on how to take the MPK49 apart and get access to the rubber pads. Some things to remember while taking apart your precious MIDI controller: use a manual screwdriver rather than a motorised one as in the video - take note of how much torque is required to unscrew those twenty rear-plate screws, and when you put back together again, do not tighten them up any more than that. The simple solution is to fill the gap up with something. Wow!
Schwanengesang Schwanengesang ("Swan song") D 957 (Deutsch catalogue) is the title of a posthumous collection of songs by Franz Schubert. The collection was named by its first publisher Tobias Haslinger, presumably wishing to present it as Schubert's final musical testament to the world. Unlike the earlier Die schöne Müllerin and Winterreise, it contains settings of three poets, Ludwig Rellstab (1799–1860), Heinrich Heine (1797–1856) and Johann Gabriel Seidl (1804–1875). Schwanengesang was composed 1828 and published in 1829 just a few months after the composer's death on 19 November 1828. In the original manuscript in Schubert's hand, the first 13 songs were copied in a single sitting, on consecutive manuscript pages, and in the standard performance order. Franz Liszt later transcribed these songs for solo piano. Schubert also set to music a poem named Schwanengesang D744 by Johann Senn, unrelated to this collection.

MuseScore 1.0 was finally released in February 2011. In March 2012, MuseScore 1.2 was released.[5] This version included over 100 bug fixes, improved MusicXML importing and exporting, as well as improved support for special characters. MuseScore 2.0 is currently under development, with many new features planned. Version history[edit] There is no specific release schedule for MuseScore, but new versions are released when the developers consider them ready for release. Features[edit]

eMusic expands MP3 store with Warner agreement eMusic is a solid place to purchase and download music. They've always had a great catalog of music that is "off the beaten path," as well as recordings of live performances. Their catalog is about to get even larger: eMusic has finally reached an agreement with Warner Music and will be adding around 10,000 new albums. No, those new albums won't include current popular music - that's something which has long been a knock against eMusic. But it will mean even more bargain-priced, restriction-free music to choose from. There are two key features I've always liked about eMusic. Second, all eMusic's tracks are DRM-free.
Web Piano Teacher - Easy Piano Lessons Series 7 Websites To Search For The Perfect Album Cover Art Tapes have given way to CDs and now CDs have given way (some if not all) to MP3 files. Then there are a huge lot of MP3 songs we download from the web or rip from music CDs. The first rule of organization says that we should neatly put them in the right folders and then tag them. Going back to the job of making our music collection look neat, we come to the “˜face’ of our songs and music albums ““ the album cover or specifically, album cover art. Just like film posters, album covers deck up a song or the album it belongs to. Tools such as MP3Tag (recommended as one of the better ones in the free download category) ping online databases like Amazon, Discogs, or freedb to gather all the metadata for a music file. So, enter the album cover art engines. AllCDCovers If you put in a search for album art cover or CD cover, it’s very likely you will get this website in the search results.

7th Chords on the piano - Week Ten - One of the most valuable chord types you'll ever learn... Hello again, and welcome to the next edition of the newsletter. If you recall the first week we learned about the three chords you absolutely, positively CAN'T do without. Then in the next weeks lesson we showed you how easy it is to learn ALL the major chords (there are 12 of them) and be able to play them in seconds -- not hours or days or weeks or months or years. Next you learned how to easily turn major chords into minor chords just by moving one key one-half step -- by lowering the 3rd of the major chord. Then we learned diminished triads -- just by lowering the 3rd and the 5th of a major chord 1/2 step. Then we learned inversions -- how to stand chords on their head. And finally, we took up augmented triads -- formed by simply raising the 5th of a major triad. Then we learned about major 6th chords. To form a 7th chord, just find the 7th note of the scale and lower it 1/2 step. As usual, now it's up to you.

armonia musicale : teoria classica : jazz Jouer tous les accords Avec les accords barrés, il est facile de jouer tous les accords. Le principe de décalage, ou "la magie de la guitare" Partons d'un accord en première position pour expliquer le principe de décalage. C'est l'accord de Mi majeur en première position. Maintenant voici un accord barré : Fa majeur. Remarquez que c'est le même accord que Mi majeur, décalé d'une case vers les aigües. Hein ? Oui, on a bien décalé toutes les notes d'une case. Si vous avez compris le principe, vous saurez jouer l'accord de Fa# majeur. La fondamentale : le repère Pour les accords que l'on vient de jouer, c'est la note jouée sur la corde de Mi grave qui donne le nom à l'accord. Comme vous connaissez les noms des notes sur la corde de Mi, vous savez jouer tous les accords majeurs (il y en a 12). Par exemple pour jouer Si bémol majeur il suffit de trouver la note Si bémol sur la corde de Mi puis de jouer la position “accord majeur” utilisée juste au-dessus à partir du Si bémol (6ème case). Et les accords mineurs ?
Play The 7 Modes in 7 Days (Tabs Incl.) Photo by Marta Monleón Modes are used in all kinds of musical styles like Jazz, Rock, Metal, Flamenco, etc. They create a certain mood or feel to your playing. If you feel like you are stuck playing solos using just Major/Minor or Pentatonic/Blues scales all the time, you’re ready to call on the modes and dive a little deeper. When I first got introduced to modes I was a little bit overwhelmed, but also excited to explore this whole new world of boundless possibilities. I soon realized it’s all about the journey and not the destination, so enjoy the process! There are 7 modes which can be derived from the major scale: 1 – Ionian 2 – Dorian 3 – Phrygian 4 – Lydian 5 – Mixolydian 6 – Aeolian 7 – Locrian Each mode starts and stops on a different note within the major scale. In this post we take the C major scale to explain the modes, but you can derive the 7 modes from any major scale in any key. I challenge you to understand the basics and work your way through each mode in 7 days.
