here's the site link.

i'm probably going. i'd be going from central NY, although i'm close enough to buffalo or syracuse to pick people up. i don't mind stopping along the way.

no offense, mate, but can you spell that out a little better? i hate having to use ctrl-f too much. just copy/paste the stuff you want taken out or added so i can do the same.

same thing as your other thread, brian. roman numerals make this kind of stuff too complex to really see what's happening. it's just pop shit, not real contrapuntal stuff. as a result, you can't really 'analyze' it. for what it's worth (i'm working from my memory here), the last two chords aren't in the same key as the rest - they're secondary chords. that's not a II (which doesn't exist), but a V/V. you do know that this is a lot easier to read if you put it down a half step and put it in the key signature of C (even though it's in A), right? like, way easier. you've got the sharps at the end for the secondary chords in E (V/V, V) and that's about it.

lol. if both vid cards went at the same time, i'd suspect either a failed rail on the psu (if they were each powered through a PEG plug) or your mobo causing it. use the old stuff for something interesting to goof around with. an htpc is fun to play with. if you actually have anything that still works, you can donate it to a local college's or high school's tech department or something for them to use for spares or test subjects.

you can call me whatever the hell you want to call me. just don't get offended when we try to help you and you have no idea what we're talking about. it's not our fault you know nothing about this stuff, even though sites like musictheory.net spoon-feed it to you. if you haven't bothered to do your own research, why should we help you? that's why the response "google.com" usually follows any question here on the site at some point. also, your second example has two major mistakes in it. first off, you're basing your chords around a natural minor scale, which sounds cool, but all minor progressions in functional harmony are based around the harmonic minor scale - a raised seventh, which gives you a major V chord and therefore gives you a cadence to use no matter what. this'll give you a V instead of a v (raised 7th is a G#), a diminished vii chord from the raised root, and also possibly a +III (C, E, G# is an augmented chord) based on how you're doing it (but no one uses these so they don't really count). the reason numerals won't work is because what you're talking about aren't standard chords. roman numerals only work for functional harmony, and you're talking about something else. functional harmony includes all normal harmonic development - and major seven chords are rarely used within that normal harmonic development. for example, in your first example you're using an Fmaj7, G, Emin7, and Am chord. these progressions aren't a part of traditional harmony because of the lack of passing tones between them - while our pop-oriented ears hear them as cool, they make no contrapuntal sense. for example, going from G to E has no true passing tones, and as such doesn't really work in traditional harmony. your awesome progression is little more than two chords - Am and G - changing roots by a third (G to E, A to F). nothing really special about it. in fact, it's actually less interesting that it could be if it were using the proper chords - an E7 instead of an Emin7 (g# instead of g) would add harmonic interest in the change between the G and the E7, and it'd lead to Am a lot better. Fmaj and Am/F are different for the same reason that B# and C are different. they sound the same but serve different functions. basically, if you want to talk about this progression, understand it's not something you can analyze using traditional techniques because it fits in those techniques approximately as well as modern fashion would fit in victorian england. those people would find it crass and dissonant, even if you find it sublime, simply because it doesn't fit into those ideas. you can use the numerals to describe it, but that's a poor choice of context, similar to explaining a painting by only using the terminology of a dentist. describe it by what it is - a chord progression. just say what the bloody chords are, and you'll be fine. just take it at face value, man - any progression that lacks true harmonic interest will become grating if repeated enough times. regardless of how cool some chord progression sounds, don't you think others would have exploited it by now for some shitty pop song? i mean, it's not like other musicians haven't already explored just about every four-bar set of chords that's possible already by the nineteenth century. so, as you can see, the reason that it's not a VI7, VII, or v7 is because none of them actually exist in minor keys (else you'd need a raised root for the VI7 to exist, and a lowered 7th for VII and v7).

do you mean 2999?

too distributed a userbase, but magfest's concerts are about as close to it as we get. blind did a set last year that was supposed to be pretty off the chain.

um, sig'd.

if it fits, it works. 2.0 is completely backwards compatible with the original model. (hint hint i talk about this in my guide so people don't ask these questions) (hint hint google)

he's totally thinking about tapping that. edit: TOTALLY! (for those who've never met her, like me, this is disa)

doesn't seem to work with aftertouch in omnisphere, but i can make massive and gofriller work now =) now just to figure out the change channels thing =)

it includes the mITX form factor in the thing, it just doesn't have info about mobo/cpu combo packs other than the atom. if you just write them and ask, they'll add it in in the next version (that's how the atom's in there, i wrote and asked them and they added it the next day). i've never had a problem with nvidia cards and ati boards, but go ahead and try to swap it out. if you're having the same issue, it might be linked to the ati board not supporting legacy cards (the 7600gt is what, three years old? four?).

stevo, you haven't called me in six months. who doesn't pick up their phone?

to be really honest, find the board you want on newegg and then go find it on tigerdirect. newegg reviews are a lot more accurate, and there's a lot more of them. just sort by number of reviews and you'll be fine. i can't remember the last motherboard that had 2 pci-e slots and didn't have 3 pci ports, so you're fine there. assuming you're going athlon (the intel e8400 is still $160...!), stick to the newer models if possible. a 3ghz dual-core processor looks sexy until you realize just how slow the damn thing is. you get what you pay for. don't reuse your DDR sticks, buy new ram. it's a significant speed difference, and ram's so bloody cheap you can get two gigs for 25$ at most. psu = power supply unit (gee thanks google). use the extreme power calculator to figure out the minimum watts you need, then add between 20-25% for the effiency rating (if you multiply your efficiency rating of your psu by the watts that it's rated at, you've got how much it feels comfortable putting out). try to hit the 60% range for the amount you'll be using on a normal basis. shoot for two rails if your graphics cards are more than a year old or not that great, or three if they are newer or pretty hungry. if you've got questions about PSUs, my guide in my sig has at least eight or nine pages on information about them. there's a summary at the end of the chapter that'll help.

not to nag, but your statement didn't make a whole lot of sense at first. a maj7 chord is, say, a I7 - a chord that's major and has a major seventh in the top. what you're talking about in your example is a flatted major VI chord - bVI. your progression (at least, what i'm assuming it is) technically doesn't exist in standard notation because the flatted six and seven chords (and a minor 5 with a 7th, for that matter) don't exist. are you actually talking about a flat five? because if you are, you don't mean a flatted five, you mean a i chord that has two moving tones that dress it up. like, let's say we're talking in C minor. your v7-i is actually just a i chord that has a D and a Bb move to an Eb and C respectively. not to be a mean person, but just make sure you're talking about the right thing when you're discussing theory around here. people get lost easy otherwise =)

torrents generally distribute illegal material, particularly when it comes to soundfonts. no offense, newbie, but use google. there's a huge amount of material available right there.

if i use jbridge, it'll just work? or do i have to jump through more hoops?

there wouldn't be an issue if you showed up at magfest this year, you fruitcake.

so, if i use that flp you linked on the fl forums, i'll be able to use AT and the wheel? that's honestly all i care about, really.

i'm buying this thing tomorrow, if it makes all my midi data work like BGC says.

i'm still not really understanding everything that jbridge does. everything works on it? how? is it a wrapper or something that brings in midi data differently?

link or it didn't happen.

the best part is that they haven't posted since they wrote that whole thing.

wait, what? fo realz?
