time signatures

Smoking players are hard to find. Spent a few years in Nashville and Memphis,... they're not on the streets. I've only seen one in each place, and more than likely they were scarfed up pretty quickly. I'd been studio and road work for so long, about 25 years, I just had to take a break. It's been about 12 years now and the itch is slowly returning. I'm still in and out about wanting to do that again. My chops are back to nearly perfect, but I don't feel that persistent desire. Without the desire, it's just not that much fun, to me. I'm probably out of sync with the times. That alone may solve the problem. Can't believe how bad radio has become.

So if you don't mind me asking, where'd you end up?

I think, pretty happy, poor but, pretty happy. There is always that tug.

-LoL-.....I meant location not state of mind.

NW MS. Not decided where to go. Home or somewhere new. No money here.

Well, if you play your cards right you could be a big fish in a little pond.
I find over saturation of players can kill a professional career.....when there's an over abundance of teenagers and weekend warrioirs willing to do the same job you do for practically free it can be quite difficult to make a decent buck....talent plays little into the equation, most club owners wouldn't know talent if it bit them in the $%^.

Oops! Came accrost something earlier and found out I had something in correct terms confused. Swing time is the samething as triplet time. Triplet (or swing) time refers to an equation like 2 eighth notes is equal to a quarter and an eighth note triplet. I alway referred to that as triplet and only triplet time. Swing time was a certain imperfect lenght of beats. Simply put in 2/4, the first beat would be longer than the second beat. Creating that swing like fashion but different than (not as strict) what is triplet feel. I guess I made up my own seperate theoretical defintion for each, but anyways sorry if I confused anybody. Just trying to think vertically rather than horizontally.

$%^. Cute. Understood the curse word, but $%^. is a lot funnier and succinct. Literally.

It's just jazz. It's fused into just about everything, nowadays.

i would like to take the time to thank azreal on his polyryhtmic lesson i had posted in the past about time sig.and his lesson helped me out alot im a big fan of oddtimimg its one technique that is underated i love lisening to bands like meshuggah they are great in playing odd beats but since i have practiced alot about the topic odd timimg has become second nature it is confusing at first but keep practicing it and it will be easly done

oh wow - thanx dude - but i have to complete the tutorial for it covers only part of the matter - i hope i can do that soon. :)

Azreal,
I am not at all sure what your comment means. Many notation programs have very poor aural and performance results. Audio Pro 4, with major manipulations, give a reasonable, a good honest bathroom result from straight notation, in a resulting readable notation. I am not rich, but to try other based programs, or even convert to Cubase is a bit steep. I think I've resigned myself, to make this work. Physically...

Select Classical Guitar, I spend, lately Bach, most of my time there. There are new transcriptions and sequences for 7-10 string guitar.
