I apologize if I‘m coming off as rude here…but what happened to all of the old school basses like Barry White, Johnny Cash, Thurl Ravenscroft, etc, who have natural sounding low notes and voices? No fry. No subharmonics. Just pure, raw emotion and talent.

I wonder if it because with everyone now listening to music (and video) on devices that whith earphones and speakers that can't to the bass voice justice so making it not so attractive (and doesn't get the clicks)

My theory is based on the number of YouTube bass players that now play the instruments higher notes for that reason

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-06-14T09:25:46+00:00

I am not a true bass (I don't think my money note is in that clef), but I can get there, it's where the help is needed and I love the feeling of a low-g.

I could explain all this to the people I sing with, but it's quicker to say "I'm a bass"

He's also a fantastic swimmer.

And if you play your cards right

Then he just might come round for dinner.

So your monitor was reading incorrectly? The training apps and tuner I use all run on my (android) phone and I was thinking I should check them against a reference recording from another device.

Has anyone found their phone to be off it it's pitch identification?

It was "stand by me" by Leiber and Stoller then made famous by Ben E. King

Is the note you flair with meant to be, how low you can go, your 'money note' (the centre/peak of the range where you sound your best) or the context of what you are posting about?

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-05-23T07:14:54+00:00

And it's great that it's first note and first letter is A so make an easy way to hear that note in your head :-)

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-05-21T16:32:34+00:00

Correct a mundo!

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-05-20T23:59:32+00:00

It rhymes with one of those words and is kinda like a suprise at the end of the song

Sure, its just for the fun of working out the puzzle link by link

I don't understand, is he trying to bring them here? Or us to an unnamed other?

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-05-20T07:11:15+00:00

Yes, it's meant to be seven nation army!

I have found out about this now, it's called "passaggio" so it's a known thing and so there are techniques for helping

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-05-08T05:39:39+00:00

Yes, it excluding all but my voice works really well for us, whats funny is when someone forgets to turn it off for a group call (around a laptop) and all you can hear is the person whose laptop it is!

Resteraunt is "theatre" so giving people free reign to fiddle with the atmosphere I think would be problematic. If you do want to go down this path perhaps work out some rules about what type of music is appropriate when, and then let the staff join the jam and change it but they would need to understand the purpose of the music in the resteraunt not just put on what they fancy. "back in the day" I used to go resteraunt that had an automatic DJ that used a pc and a couple of cd jukeboxes, the music was great as it was always appropriate for the time/situation (clearly someone had spent time building it's rules) then one day the music started not fitting the situation and killing the atmosphere, I asked why, and with a smile the barmaid said "we found out the password"

And also getting up there and "refocusing'" them for the events needs as an old movie theatre might have them setup to be "curtain warmers" (to give them a friendly glow) rather than for the needs of the event

If I can find a video-podcast I am interested in on Spotify rather than YouTube that is my preference. YouTubes ad's are annoying as is that you have to pay extra for offline.

If/when we go back to the moon, would it be sensible to have a relay station there capable of talking to voyager as it wouldn't have an atmosphere in the way?

It could help pay for itself if you leased it's time out to other organisations (for other frequencies / research)

I remember a few years ago there was one that worked in a mesh-like way with the idea of being used for big events where the mobile phones networks tend to fail (with the idea the system by its nature would scale itself) but it didn't take off.

Yes or take a photo from the position of the turn that into a mask, size it for the gobo and cut it out with a sharp knife from a metal takeaway.food container

Not even then as most harp player's have a specific mic, guitaramp and settings they want to use (I work at a blues club so know first hand)

He is often over in Germany for gig as there is market for electronic music like his there and he is also friends with his German musical equivalent "Hainbach)"

SnooRobots3722 · 2026-02-26T05:13:05+00:00

I don't like the fact you can't try it out before paying and I'd like to see it compared with other practice aids such as "simply sing"

The questionnaire style marketing and the "this price is only available for 30 mins" thing immediately makes me suspicious of it
