Flamenco Rumba INTRO MOVIE

Hi All

One of the members on this forum asked me about la feria music score, I cant find the book, it is at another address and will require me emptying a whole room of stuff to find it. But as i said i would find it i will soon i promise..lol

But here is a movie file of the intro....

Hey Grant!
It's really weird to see somebody play guitar left handed!
You know, when you watch somebody play, your arm and hand muscles tend to twich a little bit in sympathy with what you are seeing.
It's an unusual feeling on the "twiching" to see it left handed! LOL!

Is that a so-called "Webcam" you are using there, Grant?
Henrik has been hounding me to make some sort of video, but I don't have a camera.
I noticed that when ToddK was using an actual video camera (camcorder) a while ago that the playing looked pretty natural, but the "Webcam" stuff I've seen is really jerky....like a frame change every few seconds.
But I would assume this to be determined by software/sample rate, and not the actual camera?
Even Todd's latest stuff seem's out of sync in the sound/image area...
Is it the recording, or my old computer's inability to playback properly?

cheers

Ron

RE: Flamenco Rumba INTRO MOVIE (in reply to Ron.M)

LOL you make me laugh Ron!!! I was wondering if anyone would notice that I was left handed LOL and you did and for the twitching part LOL i dont really know what to say, apart from I'm sure you can find help for the twitching somwhere

I used a web cam I got for 10 quid in tesco's a few years ago, I have a digital camera that will do much better but it needs batteries, there is always something to stop the creative flow, LOL....

As for the playing back in sink etc.. it works fine on my comp, and so do Todds vids....

I built myself a computer with these specs..lol, ill just have to refresh my memory; As a hardware man this will all make sense to you, AMD Athlon XP 1.15 GHz with DDR33 memroy of 512mb, running win XP, all for the tidy sum of 280 quids,,, courtesy of Ebuyer...

I think the cheap web cam dosn't help, like you say, but it seems fine over here, I will have to buy some batteries for my digi cam that works as a web cam as well, i asume the quality will be better too, I cant get my head around all this software and hardwares stuff

I brought a sound card the other day, Sound blaster live, 24 bit!! and you know what none of my music software would work with it!!! So i have gone back to my old 16 bit sound card, lol, everything works fine with that, and by that i mean, logic, cubase vst, cubas SX, N tracks and Cakewalk pro...funny isnt it?? lol you can pay all that money for a new sound card and then spend a whole week messing about, not recording anything!!!

So its back to me old card, at least that works, and thanks Ron for cheking out my first attempt at video recording lol...I didn't have any make up on

lol

Cheers Ron, and by the way that Flamenco master programme you created is a wonderful tool!!! I am using it on my latest piece La Barossa by PDL, it is helping me so much with keeping in compas, i will let you know when i have posted it on my website, so you can have a listen and a good twitch too

Cheers Grant

Hey Grant,

i cannot open the video on your website since your hosting service tells me the file isnt available any more

Anyhow i looked at your rumba strumming pattern video and liked it, now very much looking forward to the rumba intro!

Keep it up, great work!

LOL It was me, don't trouble yourself if you can't find it though.
Btw the link doesn't work, maybe you could upload it again?
One more thing, your site spells "Jaun Martin".

You know I have to agree with Ron. I'm a lefty and it does look pretty weird

Great stuff Grant and that guitar sounds very nice. I'll be done with my lefty Barbero next month. I hope it sounds just as good.
