: I have been searching for a program to help me do music on the computer but most are so expensive. Could someone please suggest a program (or two) that will help me with transposing music so I can play hymns with more than 2 sharps and 2 flats. At present I can only handle these. I read the melody alright and the chords that are overhead so if I bring down some hymns that are too high for our Sisters to sing - this would be marvelous! My appreciation for your comments. God bless you!

Check out the software by Didier and Oliver Guillion; <a href="/smm/programs/Melody_Assistant_Win95/">Melody Assistant</a> (shareware $18) and <a href="/smm/programs/harmonyassistant_win32/">Harmony Assistant</a> (shareware $78). They also have sheet music scanning add-on software - <a href="/smm/programs/OMeR_win32/">OMeR</a> ($18).

Do you have MIDI? If you do, then try buy Reaktor. Or, get some pedals!

As with all underwater equipment - the key to making it waterproof is the o-ring. Housed systems typically have 1 major O-ring between the shell halves, and one or two at the port end. (2 more if you have a port extension) These are considered the 'user accessible' ones.

Each one of the controls on the housing and the flash bulkheads are also sealed with one or more o-rings, generally considered 'not user accessible.'

Good O-ring maintenance is the key to avoiding floods. Keep them in good shape and you should have little to worry about. These means keeping them lightly lubricated and free of any hair, lint, salt crystals, or other foreign debris that might prevent a good seal.

Use freshwater rinses religiously and you can show no fear when someone asks you that popular question of "Aren't you worried about a flood?" I personally think that the housings today are extremely reliable, and that a leak is caused either by user error or poor maintenance. Having all-risk insurance on your camera is not a bad idea either.

I presume that it's SCSI. If so, does your computer recognise it as a SCSI device? If it does then the chances are that your software has the problem. If the program that you burn from claims to support that 'exact' unit then it should be no problem. If you computer doesn't recognise it on the SCSI chain then it hasn't got a hope. Check the SCSI id and make sure the unit isn't Terminated unless it's the last device in the chain, check it's terminated if it is, this can make a lot of difference to SCSI problems.

From experience, it's worth checking the device with other burning software to make isolate the problem

Limiting can cause problem and therefore think about Compression of the vocals. Compression is a common vocal process even with the best of singers. It's largely to do with the fact that the dynamic range of a vocal (or something like a piano) is hard to listen too once amplified. It's generally requires control to smooth the whole thing out. It's worth noting that radio broadcasts are heavily compressed to the point that the original engineer may cringe at the loss of real energy from there mix. It has to be done to avoid blowing up peoples HiFi and some people actually like it that way.

The thing to think about it the dynamics of the 'other' instruments and try to fit the vocal with them. Try a 2:1 ratio at first and see if you can get away with it, don't necessarily go with the fastest attack rate. Sometimes around 40milliseconds is suitable and make sure that the release isn't too short as singers tailing off notes may become louder than they should. Go for a 4:1ratio if the singer isn't very good and more if they are terrible, they will thank you for it! Concentrate on the Threshold mostly after you have selected the ratio, attack and release and look carefully at any GR (gain reduction) and when it happens. This is a standard way of working out where to set the threshold.

The process of compression will give the impression that the EQ settings have changed and therefore you may have to reduce the bass frequencies or others, listen carefully to what the compression does to the sound as well as the dynamics. The rest is by the ear, 'don't' kill the vocal by over compression, there's a fine art to getting it right with the rest of the track. Get as close as you can. The final stages of mastering involve compression of the whole mix. (this is a general rule that doesn't necessarily apply, it's your choice) This is often brings the whole mix into perspective and will assist in the control of the vocals versus mix.

Lots of people sit there at the mixing desk constantly moving faders up and down, trying to get things to sound in the right place and get frustrated when they don't. Applying a compressor to the whole mix often brings a smile to the face as the problem was that, the dynamics of each instrument were ducking and diving behind and in front of each other, constantly suggesting that they need to be increased or decreased volume. If you have problems compressing the vocal then try doing the whole mix, you may find you have done enough to the vocal already!

Hope this helps

Steve...
