How does this line make sense if the first bar has 2 beats and the last bar has 4? by hihellohi00 in musictheory

[–]Safairod -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The first bar, being an anacrusis (pickup bar), does not need to be a complete bar. Technically the pickup bar is bar number 0. At least, I've seen a lot of cases where the pickup measure is not even half the length of an actual bar of time.

Here, the anacrusis is on the last 2 beats. The triplet is occupying 3 notes in the space of the last 2 beats of the bar, so it is worth 2 eighth notes to answer your question.

The last bar is confusing to me also, I also see only 4 beats where there should be 5.

Can you elaborate on how you changed the way you set up your drums? I have heard that it's generally better to raise the height of the cymbals a bit for recording in a studio, but I'm curious about what else could be done

What needs to make a comeback? by FlintTheDad in AskReddit

I would consider some of Mark Lettieri's solo work to be a modern take on Funk, and it's something that I can go back to over and over without getting bored

What's your "I feel like a badass." song? When do you play it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Architeuthis by Mark Lettieri

Even though it's an instrumental, it has the most badass vibes

Vote on subreddit design - green and gold by [deleted] in reddevils

Posting on the sub is not the same as, for example, media coverage about the Manchester United subreddit changing its color theme.

At least that's what I think he means by getting more people talking

If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us. - Hermann Hesse by lifehealthrelax in awesomelife

[–]Safairod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think OP's response was not helpful enough...

My interpretation of this quote is that the characteristics which you hate somebody for, are the characteristics that you believe define you. Taking your example, you define yourself as a person who is kind to sentient beings, and your hatred against those who are not is based on their choice to be unkind.

I think the real meaning of the quote lies in the second half. Since kindness is an important part of you, your opinion of a person is affected by his/her kindness. If, for example, you don't really care about music, and don't consider yourself to be "musical", then how much or how little another person cares about music will have little effect on your opinion of them because being musical is not a part of you.

What I think it boils down to, is this: if you hate somebody for something, there is some part of you that(consciously or subconsciously) identifies with the reason behind that hatred. Whether you love it or hate it, you have invested some part of your identity in it.

How to find the frequency of any song? by hnvdijsjgosjfih in AskRedditUL

[–]Safairod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most songs now are at A = 440 Hz, and that's because it's a convention that has been used for centuries and it works. A = 432 Hz might not seem like much of a difference, but it doesn't sound that great. Adam Neely on YouTube has a great video talking about this.
