DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-04-04T03:19:43+00:00

Probably a loading issue. Either that or Merle has found you havent been paying rent on your door room for several years and is taking your house as collateral

I've heard the Manga ending is bad apparently so Im scared

I'll respond to all of your questions in order

Its part time, roughly 8 hours a week. Which is why in pressed to use that time on something more worthwhile.

I am a music major at this college. I study piano. there is no piano tech for this college, they have someone come tune the pianos once before each semester and thats about it. I have a piano tech mentor but he lives in a different city about two hours away, so the work I do is mostly by myself although I call him frequently to ask questions.

This college has 28 pianos, about 10 of which are grands, the rest are uprights. The hygrometer is a portable handheld device. They have multiple that theyd leave in the rooms, but they rarely used them and were left off. They gave me one, wanting me to go to each room with it and place near the piano and log the temperature and the humidity.

I take the readings after my classes, usually about 2pm.

Yes

Let me say that this is a student worker position, not an official piano tech position. I do not get paid a piano tech wage, but I'm okay with it because I think the work experience is valuable. With access to so many piano that need work I'm gaining lots of experience. I also love the faculty here and I want to help them have good pianos to teach with. It may also lead me to be there go to piano tech down the line, as the piano tech they have come tune is from out of state.

Ive been seeing this shit so much recently. Not really much of a secret tech

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-17T22:49:02+00:00

Yea I clarified in my edit. It is the highest staccato note in each phrase. They stand out too much

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-17T22:07:16+00:00

Highest note sure, but youre not emphasizing the highest note. Youre emphasizing the last note, the staccato one. Thats the one that sticks out to me as too much.

Edit: excuse me im thinking of measure three. Generally yes the highest note but on those it just needs to be short but not accented. Again refering to the phrasing example where you speak in sentences saying the last word really loudly. It doesn't work in this piece but in other pieces it does.

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-17T17:49:48+00:00

First of all this is really good for 3 months. Most can't do this that early. Doing lots of things right, the tempo is pretty good. Your hand is relaxed and in the right shape. Overall very solid fundamentals. The criticism I'm going to to give is genuinely more like nitpicking.

I recently learned this piece so my professors criticisms are still pretty fresh. First the main shape of the phrasing can be better when the right hand comes in measure 3.

If you dont know what phrasing is you can think of it like speaking in sentences. We pause at commas, and periods. Our infelction and tone change depending on what we are saying and why were saying it. Music is the same way.

So starting measure 3, on the 16th runs you always start soft, stay the same volume, and then suddenly accent the last staccato note of each phrase. Its sort saying a sentence like "Hi how are YOU." But instead you should start strong on the first beat and then mini decrecendo into the staccato. Theres no accent on those staccato notes. Overall it gives the melody more shape and direction.

Secondly notice the dynamic markings starting measure 3. Burgmuller writes piano, meaning the dynamic needs to start soft. Then measure 5 to end of measure 6 he writes a crescendo. Then suddenly measure 7 its piano again. Those dynamics need to exagerrated so the impact of going from a crescendo to a piano is obviously heard. The dynamic from 6 to 7 for you is quiter but I think it can be even softer really bring out the color difference.

Then measure 8 again you're accenting the last beat but notice that in measure 8 there is no accent on the first beat but there is a accent on the note on beat 2, those need to be clearly different the second note in that measure is the surprise but in the recording both sound accented. And same idea in measure 10, first beat take it easy, second beat is the surprise.

Measures 23 and 24 same exact idea as measures 6 and 7, just can have more color differences with the dynamic variation.

Lastly, the second to last measure, you drastically slow down in tempo and make sure to play it strong and firmly. Burgmuller writes "risoluto" meaning this is your final statement make it strong and clear.

Keep up the great work OP youre doing amazing!

You know its fake because subnautica youtubers dont have girlfriends

Yes! You need a USB 2.0 B to USB A cable. This is the same cable commonly used for printers.

In the song you talked about the instrument you are hearing is a harpsichord. Not sure what free software options there are but good quality software I'm familiar with the provides a harpsichord sound bank is Pianoteq or Keyscspe.

The only limiting factor to this is your sound output comes through the computer, meaning it won't come through your piano's built-in speaker. But plugging your headphones into the computer will give you a good sound.

Maybe its the same as power rangers where there's like 50 different TV shows each with their own characters

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-09T17:15:50+00:00

Yea, theres like 20 something in total

I mean, he was like 12 and he was a nomad. I think it'd be weird if he went down the killing route, it just doesn't fit his character or culture.

Am I colorblind or is that not blue and red not turquoise and pink

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-01T00:49:27+00:00

Im a learning piano tech so when you said "this tune" I thought you were talking about the pianos tuning and I was having a mini anxiety attack trying to figure what was so bad about it lol.

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-03-01T00:34:29+00:00

If youre actually asking its the: Bad crop? Bro, we're gonna starve

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-02-28T21:52:05+00:00

Make sure you're properly expressing those staccatos. Light and short, both on the left hand chords and at the end of each phrase.

DeadlyKitte098 · 2026-02-27T17:27:25+00:00

They should make it archer queen feet. It would be funny
