It’s allowed if they live with you. Though you might get complaints if your amorous activities result in crushing a shelf full of hobnobs.

Someone I know organises a jazz club. He’s written off 2020 gigwise. Some here seem pretty sure that they’re going to be gigging later this year, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone mention about venues actually allowing it. How would a pub landlord’s insurance stand if the instruction is that we remain 2 metres apart, and they’re booking gigs leading to a situation where that instruction goes out the window?

You get that much space 😁 you lucky devil.

In the short term social distancing is here to stay. That’s according to the Chris Whitty on the news just now. How would a pub accommodate a gig?

I’m told we have by us. Supermarkets have one-way routes around the shops, and marks showing 2 metre spacing.

According to Chris Whitty social distancing is here to stay for the remainder of the year; at least. So 2 metres between band mates, and each member of the audience. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/22/uk-will-need-social-distancing-until-at-least-end-of-year-says-whitty

I think Fretmeister’s analysis is probably quite accurate, at least based on what I’ve read. You’re quite right too though, I doubt many venues will successfully weather the storm. Similarly wedding venues, and the myriad other small businesses that artists rely on for gigs.

The transport secretary warned a couple of days ago not to book any summer holidays. So I think people are being a tad optimistic if they’re thinking they’ll be gigging in the summer.

It’ll be next year, that’s my educated guess, based on what other countries are doing. For instance Germany aren’t allowing anything with more than 100 people until August 31st. They haven’t had it as bad as us. Social distancing is going to be with us for some considerable time to come. Football matches; if they take place, will probably be behind closed doors, so there’s no way they’ll let festivals take place.

I think you’ll be waiting a very, very long time for a vaccine. They were warning today that there might never be one.

It’s the chord produced that’s minor. Just using those notes from that major scale and producing a chord starting on each note you produce these chord types: C major7 - C, E, G, B D minor 7 - D, F, A, C E minor 7 - E, G, B, D F major 7 - F, A, C, E G dominant 7 - G, B, D, F A minor 7 - A, C, E, G B minor 7 b5 - B, D, F, A Same chord types in any major scale. Just the roots would change. Get a pen and paper and write out the notes from the C major scale, across two octaves. You take alternate notes, so 1 (root), 3 (third), 5 (fifth), 7 (seventh). Do that from each note and you’ll see what I’ve done.

What he’s done with the chords is something called harmonisation. Maybe just concentrate on the scale itself for now?

Thought so. It sounds perfect in this context. Very agressive and driving.

I totally agree about Nick’s sound, I think it’s a Spector?

I like him, he comes across as a really nice guy. I personally know people who know him in real life, and he is as he appears online.

That’s a very good suggestion. I find writing anything out is good for remembering and understanding it, not just music. I think it’s because your brain is having to process the information as you write.

It can be good to look at the part first, don’t even pick up your instrument. Study it, see how it’s constructed, how it’s based. Is it just root/fifth?Is it triads? Blues scale. That kind of thing. What key is it in? What are the chords? Look for repetition. If it’s a repeating four bar phrase, then that’s actually only four bars you need to learn, you just need to remember how many times it repeats.

The number of racist things I’ve seen and reported on Facebook, only for them to reply that it doesn’t break their code of practice. Then he criticises Trump and gets banned, it’s stupid. He’s not alone though, I’ve seen a lot of people getting banned for similar things.

I’ve never heard of him, I’ve quite liked some of what’s being shared by people on Facebook.

Try downloading AudioShare from the App Store. You can record straight into that, see if you have the same problem?

You haven’t updated any software recently?

Sounds like you’re using too much cpu. Are you using a lot of plugins? You can freeze tracks that you’ve already recorded, that converts them to audio clips and removes the plugins, it reduces cpu usage.

It uses the latency, even adding more. It works by delaying what you’re hearing. I used it last week with some stuff from uni, and again yesterday, a friend of mine used it last week with his jazz trio too. It’s good.
