Nah. They aren't. And even if they were, triangle waves are still made with sine waves. However in this case the harmonic content of a triangle is different then a saw. A triangle only has odd harmonics while a saw has both odd and even harmonics.

They do have a clicking aspect to them though, and thats from because the zero crossing on a saw wave is basically vertical all the way from the trough to the peak.

I was actually trying to find something along those lines, but the only place I've found that teaches anything along those lines is Axe Music... but the last time I took lessons (Guitar lessons that is) there, I was better than the instructor was. So I'm not going that route... I love the store and everything, it's where I bought my 7 string and a good chunk of my equipment... but they can't teach worth shit.

There's gotta be like at least 2000 colleges that teach this subject area. . . .Electrical and Software Engineering are the 2 of the most popular engineering fields up there with computer and mechanical engineering.

Acoustic programs are rare, but Hartford has a really unique dual acoustic/music major program thats pretty cool.

Composition/sound design/business stuff is also common with any school with a music section(which is a LOT of schools).

BTW - college is expensive, just about anywhere other then community college in california. This is why we use loans( not the loans posting in here haha), and fill out FAFSA's and look for scholarships years in advance.

But this is practically impossible, since there will be too many factors you just can't get "right" if you're trying to recreate f.ex. a recorded three seconds of a violine playing...

I was pretty sure Fourier had claimed that we could only create a simple version of any sound, and that recreating the actual sound was impossible due to the infinite amount of overtones and changes in them over time.

maybe i'm just twisting around your words and thats what you meant anyways. if so, sorry =/

It COULD be, but it's not. You definitely CAN record multi channel in soundforge. I don't have the experience using it, but I quote directly from the soundforge page:

"you can record multichannel audio when using multichannel sound devices. Each audio stream can set to a particular channel, and be edited in the Sound Forge interface just like a stereo file."

And I am sure there are a lot more features then Audacity I just don't have experience with those programs.

Response to: waves and frequecies question Posted March 5th, 2010 in Audio

If you use FL studio, you can open up a sytrus, use the waveshaper to make a sawtooth wave in one of the operators, then go to the OSC tab, and click the little arrow to bring up the menu shown below, and select "Convert Shape to sine harmonics" and you will see what I was talking about. To be honest I think I had that formula wrong.

I hope you understand the question (:

The reason is that the sine wave is the pure form of a single frequency sound, where as all other sounds are combinations of sine waves and their harmonics and partials. The saw wave in particular is an addition of every level of harmonics by an exponential amount less each time. So you have the fundamental frequency, then you have 1 over 2 squared the level of it's fundamental on the 2nd harmonic(or 2 times the frequency of first), then 1 over 3 squared of the fundamental on the 3rd harmonic(3x fundamental freq), and so on to infinity.

Make sense?

Yup, the music supervisor is usually responsible for placement of that. The composer does the custom work, while the pop/rock industry gets their songs placed in the film/TV show. Such as House. M.D.

Thanks for clearing that up. I SHOULD know that already considering Film Scoring is a big possibility for one of my majors.

Several, but the easiest is to simply double click the note to bring up its individual settings, and then set the note time to 0:04:000 (quarter note). Or however long you want.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

ok you win for easiest way. There's always like 10 bagillion ways to do something in FL studio.

I kinda LOLd a bit at this

1- digidesign is a piece of shit scammer for making a grip of specialized cables and making the HD system only work with TDM plugins and stuff which is a product only they make. So fuck them for that.

2 - Pro-Tools is good for recording and works well with consoles. Thats why it's the industry standard....otherwise fuck protools.

3 - Pro-tools works on PC. . . .so yeah

4 - Apple only has Logic & Motu as specialized Apple OS only products basically(excluding garageband because its a beginner program). Not to mention the power of DAW is hardly a matter anymore, it's more so just preference for UI layout now a days. Also PC has FL studio(the universal beginner to pro level system for electronic production excluding recording/external device use.)

anywaysssssssss to the OP

When in doubt, go with Steinberg products as they set the standard in audio without being an asshole. Or if you're broke: Audacity

At 3/5/10 03:11 PM, dm47 wrote: hey guys, a quick question about piano roll.

is there any way to make sure that the note is EXACTLY one beat? Like, I know I can drag it to the right until it looks like it's 1 beat, but that's not a perfect method. And unfortunately.. the "snap to" options don't work for the end (right side) of the note, only the beginning. Or am I wrong?

You're wrong. The snap functions do work just fine on both sides. However sometimes when you turn the snap off to adjust something it will automatically place incorrectly sized notes thereafter(or rather the size of the note you just adjusted) whenever you click. There's 2 easy ways to solve that:

One way is to drag the note to the very front/left, hit C(which switches it to the cut tool), and cut the note at the mark you want with snap settings on(then hit B to get back to brush so you can move it back).

Or if you don't have other notes, you can just delete everything in the piano roll, turn on your snap settings, use the simple sequencer and put a note, then right click the instrument button just to the left of the sequencing and click "send to piano roll", which will do exactly that only with an exact measurement starting from wherever you placed the note, and ending at the end of the measure. From that point on just drag the right side over to the amount you would like.

If i explained that horribly let me know and I will reword them.

Just go to content library and DL all the free stuff. They have a bunch of sampled pianos with a directwave multi sample set up included which is pretty handy considering mapping samples on directwave is kind of a bitch.

but if you have a pirated version and cant use the content library as a consequence then my response would be something along the lines of "GO TO HELL"
