Re: Term for chord that functions as a dominant to the dominant?
'V of V' is a perfectly 'official' name for it. Or you can call it a 'secondary dominant'. 'V of V' is a little more precise. A secondary dominant doesn't have to be the dominant OF THE DOMINANT. It can be the dominant of anything other than the tonic. Key of C. C, B7, E7, A7, D7, G7, C. Everything ...

Re: minor cosmetic issue
For what it's worth, it's noticeably fuzzier than the surrounding text even on this old 1366 x 768 screen. Not that it worries me much.

Re: What do I do with this in terms of chord changes and accompaniment?
You're hearing the snares on offbeats, 2 & 4? I'm hearing them pretty strongly on 1 & 3. Yep! If you can hear it that way it's a simple swung groove. I can't hear the snare as 1 and 3! :eh: There's a snare hit on the second note, after the 'little note'. You really hear that as a '2' or '4'...

Re: What do I do with this in terms of chord changes and accompaniment?
You may have aligned that first note to a barline in your sequencer, but musically it's an upbeat. Had a listen. I have to agree 100%. Just listen to those obvious snare beats on 2 and 4. It's actually a very simple swung riff. You're hearing the snares on offbeats, 2 & 4? I'm hearing them pret...

It is, but it's just not accented at all.

Re: What do I do with this in terms of chord changes and accompaniment?
You're riffing on a G natural minor scale in a sort of folk dance feel. I don't think there's any point in looking for a more complicated chord structure. You could go to town on the drumming. You could add a middle section with a bit of variation, maybe move to a F root. Here's a (completely un-'pr...

Re: Zoom H4n vs smartphone, guess which wins
2 is a better balance between violin and piano, but sounds like the mic was in a box! 1 is the higher quality recording. But it doesn't really matter. Because the violinist is going to listen to either of them and say 'God! Was I playing THAT much out of tune?' and refuse to let you submit either. ...

Re: DI placement
What amp is it? But yes, it sounds as if the 'DI' is designed more as a feed to an additional amp/speaker than a DI to the board.
Sure, tap a DI box off the effects return. If the sound guy can't get a good signal he'll soon tell you.

Re: How to read Pitch of Staccato Notes
I am suprised. The way you talk I get the impression that you can hear a short note and can tell the pitch? Like this is an A3 -4 cents? Thats incredible to me. Can you tell what frequency any given sound is when you hear it? :shocked: If a note has a discernable pitch, it doesn't matter how long i...
