Title: My Version of Dark Carnival (audio included)
Post by: JazzyManda on March 21, 2004, 03:46:27 pm
ok, well, i have an mp3 and a wma file (thanx to m125boy) of me playing Dark Carnival along with some strings added. now i just want to warn you, i've only been taking piano lessons for 5 months now so, yeah. lol
oh, and i change the rhythm around the end. i just make it like off the beat but anyways, i hope you like it and i hope it's not like blaring loud on your speakers or anything. i just hope this works. lol

this is the mp3 one. this one has strings ^^
http://www.michelle-fan.net/manda/amandadarkestcarnival.wma
this is the wma one. this one doesn't have strings ^^
don't mind the messups. i hope the strings aren't like covering up the piano.

EDIT: you may have to turn your volume up a bit. i think i recorded it on too quiet of a setting, either that or my speakers on my computer just suck DOUBLE EDIT: lol. um, i just realized that the wma file doesn't have strings on it. grrr. but the mp3 does. haha. i don't know why that happened. darn, now you can hear all my mistakes on the one. lol

I like the strings that you added, they sound good!

You are a very good pianist for 5 months! What kind of keyboard/piano do you have?

thanx so much. yeah, i thought the strings would sound cool with it.

um, i just got it. it was really expensive... it's a Yamaha P-120. very nice keyboard. it has 88 piano keys (no the springy kind), you can record, built in metronome, has like 14 instruments with variations and they all sound sooo realistic, plus you can make it sound like it's in a hall, theater, room, different stuff like that, you can adjust the pedal functions, make the sound brighter or darker, make the keys softer or harder when you use them, and add phasers, tremors, and delays and it looks purdy too. ok, i'm going to shut up about my piano now. lol

yeah, i just got into piano lessons. before lessons i got Vanessa's piano book and took it apart. took me forever to learn A Thousand Miles. and then even longer to learn how to read bass cleff and then play that while playing something completely different on the right hand. but, since i could read music, i can now play all her songs except Rinse. lol. that things hard. but yeah, i'm taking lessons now so i can play Vanessa's new stuff, and since i'm going to major in music, it helps to know how to play piano to pass your piano exam. you have to take that thing to get your music major. it sux

lol. yeah, i love this piano. it's so cool!!  :wink:
