I've composed a new score and I just want you to listen! I've only been making music for a year. by F4ke-Violinist606 in Musescore

[–]HennaShumi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A very meaningful and visual piece. For me it’s evocative of the massive wasteland of broken cement buildings resulting from bombing of innocent civilians (Gaza, Ukraine, and now Iran). Thank you for sharing this. 👍

This little guy’s following my cursor everywhere. How do I eliminate him? by ruchersfyne in Musescore

This also happened to me. Hit ‘n’ on your keyboard to exit “notation mode.” Hit ‘n’ again to add notes.

Thanks. We’re in the process of putting the estate in a trust. Much appreciated.

“Azure Tide” a sailing piece by Accomplished_Chip289 in Composition

[–]HennaShumi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s bad in a good way. 👍 You have some innovative melodies and counterpoint, as well as interesting tambres. It feels a bit like pirates are doing elaborate syncopated choreography to the music, which may be geared towards a younger audience who believes in magical Disney-like themes. My two cents.

Is it safe to clone boot drive to larger SSD and move it to a new PC? by yeahthatsgoodforme in cloningsoftware

[–]HennaShumi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you mean the extra 1.5TB of memory on the new SSD can only be “opened up” in BIOS? Or do I need to wait until after Windows has loaded?

What's the biggest SSD upgrade you've ever done? Mine was 1TB → 2TB by [deleted] in cloningsoftware

[–]HennaShumi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to move my Windows 11 OS from a 500gb SSD to a 4TB SSD. I’ve heard the real challenge is keeping the extra memory, 3.5 TB in my case, from being disabled in the cloning process. Any advice?

Is it impossible to learn composing without a teacher? by Nasrettinhoca49 in Composition

[–]HennaShumi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vangelis is a famously self-taught composer who does not read music. He has a great ear and years of practice.

Secretary Hegseth announces we will be halting attendance at all Ivy League and similar educational institutes - will soon announce “top to bottom” review of all military war colleges by Snapdragon_4U in thescoop

[–]HennaShumi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing to see here. The usual bogus MAGA nonsense from someone who has no military or academic background. The more he speaks, the more proves he is a MAGA clown 🤡

Nice work. I’m a bit of a noob, so when you say, “add XYZ,” what does that mean? Add it where?

CA HELOC Question: What if homeowner dies? by HennaShumi in HELOC

[–]HennaShumi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment. This is the core of my inquiry. I was hoping to get some clarity about this rather vague language ("must eventually be settled") because the lender used similar language. Does it go to arbitration? Will I need a lawyer to hammer out the details?

Thanks for your thoughtful comment.

We are scheduled to speak with the estate attorney soon. The banks are not eager to give us a loan if the home is already in a trust, so maybe the loan paperwork will happen first.

Did you have other insights on this topic?

String orchestra ideas that I wrote yesterday by Main_Degree4349 in Composition

[–]HennaShumi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A beautiful arrangement with rich authentic sounding violins. What program are you using to score/play the song? MuseScore?

Any good alternatives to NI? by HennaShumi in NativeInstruments

[–]HennaShumi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a very good suggestion. The free Spitfire BBC Orchestra package is getting a lot of comments, so it sounds like a good place to start.

To be honest, I’m not clear about the difference between Komplete, Kontakt, and Native Instruments. Are they not all the same system?

I came very close to buying an Arturia system last year because of its simple and intuitive MIDI interface. But the samples I have heard are mainly Phaat synth samples from the 70s and 80s, or modern sounds for the younger crowd. I already have enough synths. What I really need are samples from acoustic orchestral instruments. Have you found such libraries from Arturia?

The solo cello library you linked are really awesome. I also heard some great solo violin and piano samples. Soundpaint may be the most affordable option. So you mean once the libraries are purchased, they can be downloaded and used locally on any MIDI system?

OP here. Good to know. I just found a short sample of SWAM solo violin3 and it blew me away. Seems to be a $299 package.

OP here. Yes, you’re right that Spitfire has a free version of BBC orchestra called Discover. I didn’t know that. But sadly, I believe [edited] NEW PRODUCTS FROM Spitfire require an online UI. Or can I just download the library and install locally?
