Write Your Own Music: Software to Write Your Own Music at Home

Posted by: admin  |  Category: Music

Have you ever wondered if it was possible to write your own music at home? If you would like to compose and listen to your own songs or pieces, you can. There is software that enables you to write your own music: it’s called Finale, and is created by the MakeMusic company.

Finale has been in existence for almost a decade, and has numerous versions still in print. The latest version is Finale 2010.

There is a bit of a learning curve for write your own music software. For example, with Finale, you have to:

Learn the various tools such as the speedy entry vs. regular entry tools
Decide if you want to hook up an external midi device or keyboard
Understand the different types of slurs, articulations, and other notations

While it takes a while to learn how to use Finale, once you get the hang of it, you can start writing your own songs very quickly. Finale is good for any genre of music, but ideal if you want to compose music that other people will actually read on paper.

Write your own music software is sometimes expensive; in the case of Finale 2010, you’ll be looking at roughly $200-300 for the software itself. That doesn’t include keyboards or any hardware you want to hook up.

If Finale 2010 isn’t your cup of tea, you can also try programs like Digital Performer or Pro Tools. These also take a bit of time to learn, but you have more options with music production software like the two listed above. Finale is a little more limited when it comes to actually creating your own mp3s.

On the other hand, if you want something simple or for notation purposes only, Finale is great. You can have your own songs written in just a night or two, and then export them to mp3 format for quick listening and sharing.

Amarok 2.3.0 “Clear Light”

Posted by: admin  |  Category: Music

Linux provides more than one way to listen to music collections. The bare-bones solution is to click on a music file from within a file manager app. The high-end approach is to playback music with Amarok. Amarok is a sound-system-independent audio player with a flexible interface that uses a browser-like design. Amarok does what a simple file manager cannot do. It lets you create playlists to maximize your music listening activities.

Team Amarok is proud to announce Amarok 2.3.0. It contains many improvements and bugfixes over Amarok 2.2.2 as well as many new features. Areas such as podcast support and saved playlists have seen huge improvements, as has the support for USB mass storage devices (including generic MP3 players).

With large parts of Amarok 2 becoming quite mature, it was also time to start looking forward again. Therefore, this release also contains a number of new features of a slightly more experimental nature. These include a new main toolbar and a rewritten and much simpler file browser. These parts are brand new and based on user feedback, and they will change and improve over the next few releases. The old slim toolbar is still available should you prefer that, but we encourage you to try out the new toolbar and tell us what you think. The file browser’s look and feel now aligns more closely with the rest of Amarok with improvements such as breadcrumb navigation, and it is now focused on being a way to find and play music instead of being a multi-purpose file manager.

The context menu of tracks in your playlist now offers a “show in media sources” option, making it easier to find the same track again in the collection browser for editing, moving or deleting the file.

Podcasts have received a configuration dialog allowing you to change the update interval as well as the location to store new downloaded episodes. Podcasts and saved playlists are now also grouped by source, and a merged view is available just like in your local collection – perfect for those that don’t care where their music is coming from but simply want to listen to it. Now, when a new source of playlists or podcasts becomes available, Amarok will switch off merged view and show a collapsible list of your new listening sources.

The Wikipedia applet now looks better and links have been fixed. Internal links to other pages on Wikipedia will display in the applet, and external links open a browser window.

In short, Team Amarok has been focusing hard on furthering our long-term goal: making Amarok the best tool for immersing yourself in music, no matter where it comes from.

Chosing Headphones

Posted by: admin  |  Category: Multimedia, Music

Chosing the use headphones may be a relationship-saving. Using headphones you can listen music or whats movies late at night, without disturbing others by loud noices.

But there is a whole lot more – headphones open up new possibilities. Headsets can let you take your favorite music with you wherever you go.

The use of an appropriate headset  can even provide relief from distracting ambient noise while working or traveling.

Even if it’s just an issue of getting better sound from your home theater receiver, a high-end headphones-pair offers a cheaper alternative to upgrading a speaker system.

Whatever your requirement, it always remain a pre-requisite to choose good quality headsets.

Unfortunately, many treat such a purchase with  a little bit of disregard – possibly because these represent a relatively small expense in comparison to  the rest of their AV gear.

The truth is that if you still want to enjoy the best audio experience from your AV receiver or CD player – it is essential that you have an understanding of what to look for, headphone-specifications, features, design options most suitable for your needs, in particular, the environment in which you will be using your pair, etc.

Cheap headsets might be good enough for listening to your favorite CD while jogging, yet they are unlikely to deliver the same level of acoustic performance you enjoy with a good set of speakers.

Ok, one may argue that it is not right to compare different technologies, in that though these are somehow related, yet speakers and headsets are designed to cater for different needs.

On the other hand, one should be aware that with today’s technology, it is still possible to experience music and movie audio with extraordinary clarity and image detail when using a pair of good quality-headphones combined with Dolby-Headphone technology. Hence, making the right purchase would surely make a big difference in your headphone-listening experience.
