Hi @gracehopkins7649 I'll try - sometimes, bars in Noteflight don;t always go where I want either. This is because Noteflight automatically places bars according to how many notes are in the bar. For example, if you have a simple melody using quarter notes and 8th notes, then it will most likely go where you want but if you have a complex drum chart with 16th note fills, then Noteflight will move it up or down according to which stave it will fit on. The best solution is to press on the "formatting" button on the top menu - then select the tab for "sizing" and move the note size down a bit. This will enable more bars to fit on each stave. Hope this helps. I might get around to making another video about this soon.
Any chance you can remove the "made for kids" from your "The 4 Phils Teach Harmony for String Quartet" video? I can't add it to a playlist because of that.
No, it doesn't. Noteflight is only a notation app. You can make it look like a tie - i.e. a cureved line over 2 notes of the same pitch. But on playback, Noteflight still sees it as a separate note. A bit frustrating I know - but I have learned to live with it. It's an issue if you are using Noteflight playback to show students accurate playback but I make all of my learning media by recording the parts on real instruments with the score, so it's not an issue for me.
@@PhilRookemusic-educator Hi, does this mean there is no way to set the playback to play tied notes as intended, even in Premium? I've been trying to figure this out for an hour now
Thank you for your support of the string ensemble and performance music Mr Lee. It is my pleasure to work at producing media such as this to promote the learning.
I'm not certain about that. I think that is because it works in crotchet units - that is, it doesn't see a unit of a minim in a bar. Just guessing. I have wondered that before but it doesn't really concern me. My other software I use is Cubase and that allows me to beam quavers in pairs or in 4's.
@@PhilRookemusic-educator Thanks Phil. This is for an assessment, but if the software doesn't do it I don't feel I can lower the mark. I'll look at Cubase.
@@catherineforsyth874 Sorry that doesn't help. I'm a bit busy right now, otherwise, I'd have a look at it for you. I understand assessment requirements. If you're looking for free software, try Musescore - otherwise if you want the Cubase equivalent and you don't mind paying, then Dorico is the newer notation software from Steinberg. I only use Cubase becasue I do multi track recordings of the score and Cubase is a DAW as well as doing very good scoring
I was watching a Netflix show awhile back. Travels with Daddy. Very funny. They were in Wales and I heard a very out of tune version of this shanty but it was definitely it. Wellerman is what we hear but in the Welsh version it actually refers to the weather man.
Loved this video. It showed me in less than 10 minutes how to get started on taking my MIDI files and making them ready for me to use in performances. It was great that you had to work around the drum machine and put your own drum beat in from Garageband. Because I now know how to get around the flaws of MIDI files: simply change the instrument and bounce the final project down to MP3.
Thanks Charles. I'm really glad that it helped you - not sure if I showed that in the video but yes, it is also possible to export as an MP3 file. That's a very handy format because then students can easily play that on their phones. But then they can't change the tempo as they can do with a MIDI file.
Hi Mads, this video was made on a Mac. It will work on Windows or Mac. It depends on which bar you highlight as to what will move onto the next line. I made another very short video for you. I hope this helps. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dzgh_C1KdMs.html
Hi @mono That's a good question. The only reason I can think that you would want to connect triplets - or triplets to any other note value in the next bar for that matter is to tie the notes. So I made another video for you showing this. I hope this helps you - please let me know in the comments if it does. Excuse the background noise. It's very early morning here and I'm staying in a cabin on a river on the far north coast of New South Wales (Australia) so you can hear the early morning birdsong and the cattle on the opposite bank of the river.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f7GwXVxKXYY.html
She was only in year 4 but this took place because of the large group strings class at Fairholme College which commenced in 1989. It is a good story. More here www.linkedin.com/pulse/new-ways-accessing-music-learning-double-bass-dr-emma-phil-rooke/
Thanks for that suggestion @Kriss Nix The focus in this video was chord structure and how to write a chord progression for a string quartet in various styles. But your suggestion has prompted me to make a "part 2" harmonising a melody. Thanks for that.
I had a comment on here a few days ago that has disappeared. The comment was ""This does not work because somehow the site archived my scores. I cannot unarchive them so I cannot delete them." Even though this person has probably deleted their comment, I'd still like to address it because it could be helpful to others. Yes... Noteflight puts your deleted scores into "deleted scores" and will archive them. I am not certain for how long. I think it might be a few weeks. I can currently see 9 deleted scores in my "deleted scores" from the last few weeks but none before that. I find this to be actually a great feature because I use my Noteflight Learn account to create classroom resources and at least several times, I have had to go back and grab one of those scores out of "deleted scores"
