Transcribe! 7.30
Transcribe! project is an assistant for people who sometimes want to work out a piece of music from a recording. more>>
The usual technique for doing this is to copy the music to cassette and then listen repeatedly to each bit, using your ear and your brain to work out what is happening. Unless you have perfect pitch then you also need a piano or a guitar handy to check out which note is which. However, if you copy the recording to your computers hard disk as a sound file then you can use Transcribe! instead of the cassette machine and the piano.
Transcribe! offers many features aimed at making the transcription job smoother and easier, including the ability to slow down music without changing its pitch, and to analyse chords and show you what notes are present.
It is important to understand that Transcribe! does not attempt to do the whole job, processing an audio file and outputting musical notation - this would be nice, but is a currently unsolved research problem. The spectrum analysis feature is very useful for working out those hard-to-hear chords, but you must still use your ear and brain to decide which of the peaks in the spectrum are notes being played, which are merely harmonics, and which are just the result of noise and broad-spectrum instruments such as drums.
If you have never worked out even a simple piece of music by ear then Transcribe! will probably not help you (see How to Transcribe), but if you do sometimes work out recorded music by ear then Transcribe! can make the job a lot quicker and easier.
Transcribe! takes no interest in MIDI files - these already contain explicit information about what notes are to be played and when, and there are plenty of programs available which can display this information. Transcribe! deals with audio sample data files.
Transcribe! plays and records audio files but it is not an audio editor. It is capable of applying various effects to audio such as speed change, pitch change and EQ. You can save the modified audio to a new sound file if you want.
Main features:
- Depending on version, Transcribe! reads audio from many different types of audio file and audio CD. It also has a "Record" facility for recording from analog sources such as cassette or vinyl. It displays the audio waveform and allows you to scroll around, place markers for sections, measures and beats, and easily play or loop from any point.
- Loops and positions can be stored and recalled. There are many keyboard shortcuts and you can configure these as you like (in version 7). You can configure Transcribe! to respond to pedals of various types so as to keep your hands free : start and stop playback with your feet!
- There is extensive and readable help accessible from within the program.
- The "spectrum" feature displays the strength of the various pitches in any chord or note you select, in the form of a graph - a wavy line over a piano keyboard graphic. The height of the various peaks in the graph indicate the strength of the note above which the peak appears. This is not a magic bullet for analysing chords but it can be a very useful source of information.
- Transcribe! offers various audio processing effects (Slowdown, Pitch Change, EQ filtering etc) intended to help with transcribing. These effects all run in "real time" unless your machine is old & slow. This means there is no pre-processing or other waiting, the processing is performed on-the-fly while playing and you can instantly hear the effect of changes to EQ etc. For instance if you press the half-speed button while playing then playback simply continues, at half speed.
Mono/Karaoke
- This effect allows you to mix the two channels of a stereo recording together in various ways including phase-reverse, commonly known as "karaoke" as it sometimes has the effect of removing the vocal (if the vocal is panned dead-centre).
EQ
- A powerful EQ filter.
Tuning
- Adjustment to playback pitch, in cents (hundredths of a semitone) for fine tuning and also larger shifts of up to two octaves, which can for instance be useful in hearing low, murky bass parts by raising them by an octave or two.
Transposition
- Special handling for those of you who play a transposing instrument such as trumpet or saxophone.
Speed
- Speed variable from one twentieth to double speed.
- Click here for an MP3 file (373 KB) demonstrating the sound quality of slowdown-without-pitch-change. It contains 7 seconds of a guitar solo played quite fast, followed by the same at half speed. This is what you get when you press Transcribe!s half-speed button (version 7.20). I havent bothered to give lots of samples, since you can download Transcribe! for a free trial period and try it yourself.
Flyer
- Sometimes people ask me for a printed information sheet about Transcribe!. I dont distribute printed materials but here is a single-sided information sheet as a pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file which you are welcome to download and print out.
CHAINSAWLINUX 0.0.1
CHAINSAWLINUX is an Operating System and a movie editing suite, a CGI & 3D animati more>>
The developers of CHAINSAWLINUX, a film & video production company located in Maryland, are proud to offer an alternative choice to other packages. Since we are also filmmakers, we understand the things that filmmakers want.
On top of that, everything inside is open source, which means you have access to the source code of the software so that you can edit, fix, upgrade, or otherwise manipulate the software to do as you wish. Your options are limitless!
Hardware is very important in an editing system - its like the days of the old muscle cars - the bigger the engine, the faster your car. CHAINSAWLINUX runs on the x86 32 & 64-bit architectures (basically, it runs on PCs).
The PC should be fairly fast - a bare minumum of a 1Ghz Processor with at least 512Mb of RAM and at least 50Gb of hard drive space would be preferred. A striped RAID system is highly recommended for importing and exporting video, but you may be able to get by with less (performance varies from system to system).
For Cinelerra, it is recommended to have at least a Dual 2.4Ghz Opteron, 4GB RAM, 200 GB storage for movie files and a Gigabit ethernet. The Renderfarm node should consist of at least a Single 2.4Ghz Athlon, 512MB RAM, Flash hard drive and a 100MB ethernet.
We understand not everyone can always afford decent editing hardware, but its what we recommend as a bare minimum. It boils down to this: the faster your machine, the less waiting around on editing...
CHAINSAWLINUX is not a webserver, nor a mailserver. It is not a DHCP server, nor a name-server. Nor is it a router, a firewall, a ftp server, or a fileserver. It wasnt made to be any of the types of network servers or routers that are usually associated with many Linux distributions. But it is made to be an easy and fast user-interface for editing movies.
