Tessitura Pro is a powerful tool for students, Jazz players, Arrangers and Composers. But it’s unclear and as a result, totally useless for slotting neatly into the types of quantising you’re trying to align.Ībout my favourite approach I’ve found to date - in modular - has been the Ornament and Crime, which uses the Braids approach but also lets you click notes on/off by hand, or just click semitones on/off.īut yeah: the red herring in your description is the Disting, for sure. Of course, it doesn’t indicate where it began - I have a sneaky feeling it’s always in C, because 0V is often taken as C2 or C0 (depending on implementer).
TESSITURA PRO ANDROID MANUAL
I’ve checked the manual and it just says it tunes things to ‘ the closest whole-semitone value to the unquantized V/octave pitch CV X’. the Disting is a complete nuisance, because it uses modal/scale names with no obvious point of reference.The uScale wouldn’t care about the mode, though - it’s just another way of describing notes. So: ‘all the white notes’ would correspond (presuming a Braids was correctly in tune) to C major, or D dorian, or E phrygian, or A aeolian. The catch is going to be translating ‘absolute’ quantizers into this. This would just let you push some buttons you like. (Ie: the Pentatonic scale is a five note scale, but sometimes I like to quantise just to I-II-IV-V and that’s not really describable as a mode). The advantage compared to the above is it’s much more intuitive to pick non-eight-note scales, and more to the point, non-contiguous scales. “just-select-notes” quantising: like a uScale or a Penrose, basically: you’re given a 12-semitone keyboard and you pick notes to quantise to.By specifying a mode and a starting point, you’re really just selecting a list of notes across the keyboard. “absolute quantising”: give me a scale and a note to start it on, and I’ll quantise to that.But there are three basic schools of quantising thought, which I’ve given crappy names: Yeah, the Attack piece does what I would have done - explain them all as ‘white note’ scales starting on different notes.Īll a scale is, really, is a list of intervals Tone-Tone-Semitone-Tone-Tone-Tone-Semitone for the major scale, for instance. God, I hope the people who paid for this gig think this is experimental rather than just crap.” Where I am currently: “Right, that sounds nice, now let’s tentatively hit random notes to see which ones sound right, then try to memorise them, then twiddle the knobs on Braids and Disting like a tone-deaf safecracker, until I find something which sounds like it’s vaguely in tune. What I want: “Right, my Push is in Dorian mode in C, so I’ll set Braids’ quantiser to Phrygian in A, the Disting’s quantiser to Minor Triad + 7th, and play these notes on my MIDI keyboard”
TESSITURA PRO ANDROID HOW TO
I want to learn how to translate between them on the fly, so that I can dial in the right settings and get everything working harmoniously without reverting to guesswork or trial and error. I’m coming at this from a specific practical angle: I’ve got a number of different tools in my studio setup for quantising pitch, all of which use slightly different terminologies and underlying theories which I don’t really understand. Can anyone recommend any super-simple online resources for learning about keys, scales, modes and chords, ideally written from a practical rather than purely theoretical perspective, and suitable for noobz / electronic geeks rather than formally-trained musicians? I have a beginner’s grasp of music theory, but really not much more than that.
