A song I wrote

I wrote a song using Noteworthy Composer. I don't have much formal music training, so don't expect too much. Watch the entire video. It's dedicated to Orgon3 because, when I was on IRC I randomly asked who wanted a song written about him, and he said "me." I recorded a video of it playing in Noteworthy Composer, but the audio got a bit distorted while converting to mp3. There's a link to the actual midi file if you would prefer that.

Edit: btw for those of you who missed it, read my previous blog entry where I put a lot of great stuff.

Lol, the intentional disregard for the disclaimer and incorrect rating system used really make this post.

Can you explain how it differs from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_scale

Edit: C major?

which scale are you using, if any? you dont need to use one, you can just say u are using the chromatic scale lawl

being 'off scale' means using notes that arent in the scale you are using (theres no rule stating you have to use any scales or that u cant add tensions or switch scales)

if ur using c major, any notes except for C D E F G A B are 'off scale'

Um... well the real basic thing is u there is a whole step, between every note, except for B-C and.. E-F, which are half steps
and.. all scales have letters A-G
and.. you need to follow this "pattern" W= whole, H = half step
W,W,H,W,W,W,H
For example
G - A - B - C - D - E - F# - G
W W H W W W H

there is a F# (sharp) because u need a WHOLE step and E-F is a half step, therefore u put a sharp, where is essentially another half step, and 2 half steps = whole step, likewise F-> G is a whole step, so obviously F# -> G , is only a half step !

Either way I just play by ear, i can usually tell if there is a sour note, unless it's like the egyptian scale or w/e ; don't get me wrong though; everyone has to start with all the basic chords / scales ; i just don't need them ; kinda like how you don't need to see the construction bar/idle larva for workers in SC ; you just know another one needs to be built.

yes of course i took that into consideration but then again



I don't have much formal music training,



So it's either he used pretty good musicianship and taste to construct a variety of scales that flows through the song , enriching it, or he just messed up a little bit
so i assumed the latter D:

theres lots of different scales, id be suprised if you could hear each particular tone and dictate whatever scale it is, especially since alot of the time the scale wont start on the tonic (in popular music anyway)

do you mean you can tell if theres a sour note in the more common scales, like maj/minor, pentatonic, whole, diatonic etc?

This seems to explain the little bit I already knew, and now I sorta understand where it comes from to begin with. It's an interesting thing I might learn more about.

That aside, if you are in C major, and don't indicate any flats or sharps, how can you be off a scale or out of key or whatever?

The evaluation version can be downloaded, but you can only save a song 10 times in nwc format. It seems you can save midis as many times as you want (and can import them back in) so it's not impossible to keep improving a song if you run out of saves, but it will format it much differently when you import it. There are probably some other limitations as well. It's like 40 bucks iirc for the actual, or you can easily evade the protection if that's your preference. As you can see from the video, I was using the evaluation version.

since theres no sharps in c major scale, the only way to be out of scale or whatever is to use sharps/flats

key is different, have you indicated a key in the key signature on the left?

ill see if i can steal the full copy

i didn't mean anything like listening to every song and nit picking every single sour note;
I mean when i play music and i miss a note ; i can usually tell when it's sour , because I'm accustomed to playing it



do you mean you can tell if theres a sour note in the more common scales, like maj/minor, pentatonic, whole, diatonic etc?


im pretty sure i can identify those though
and C major is the easiest one heh T.T
