Well, since I just started making files again (I haven't made files in a long time), I was wondering if I can apply here.

I'll send the file I was working on to one of you guys later.

**Bluearrowll** · 04-11-2009, 11:55 AM

I'll be a student.

I second this notion.

Also--a good IRC client is XChat, it's open-source and doesn't require you to register for it later.

**Xandertrax** · 04-11-2009, 02:37 PM

oh- you guys can IM me anytime at Xandertrax, or shoot me an e-mail at Xandertrax@gmail.com if you have any questions.

And I don't know much about freezes. I've been starting making a few files with freezes in, and I don't know when the best place to use them is, or what's awkward to do when holding a freeze. Any help?

**Patashu** · 04-11-2009, 05:50 PM

The most awkward thing to do during a freeze is to hit notes on the other finger of the hand holding the freeze, I think.

Thinking about it...you'd want to use freezes
-When a melody extends into a break in the music, or an area of low congestion
-To accent a certain prominent sound (such as a cymbal crash or a particular instrument) that the flow of the steps alone doesn't really make prominent
-To 'pseudolayer' another instrument into a constant run without having to cram in more notes. Just make one note a minifreeze every time it pops up

I doubt my wish comes true..

kommisar[os] · 04-11-2009, 06:42 PM

i'm gonna setup an irc channel and just kinda chill around if people have any questions. i'll have sort of classes in there and give people songs to practice on and tell them what to improve and how to use theories etc.

step 1. get mirc www.mirc.com or whichever irc client you prefer
step 2. connect to irc.chatspike.net or select chatspike from the servers list in irc
step 3. join #smu and wala

it's free and even when it says your time is up, you can keep using it

**dood gone krazee** · 04-11-2009, 06:50 PM

Apparently my time is up and I have to register?

God damn don't tell me I have to buy this stupid thing.

oop k nvm

kommisar[os] · 04-11-2009, 06:58 PM

**gnr61** · 04-11-2009, 07:17 PM

kommisar[os] · 04-11-2009, 07:19 PM

**cetaka** · 04-11-2009, 07:29 PM
