Compressors?

Barber Tone Press.

Key feature: Balance control that you fade between your natural sound and the compressed sound, boutique quality at a normal price.

It's a compressor that smooths things out, once you get it tuned in (easy) you won't turn it off. If your looking for a squished sound as a effect it's maybe not the best choice, but it can do that too.

Is 'titted' a word?

Player's heads hit the ground hard on every play. An artificial turf field is similar to a fuzzy parking lot.

So, not a great idea, for this and other reasons.

If you have studied this history you will see a sharp boom in music available that started the year the copyrights were protected. That discount the claim of any sociological changes. They didn't all happen that year.

Just a question- Do you think composers and musicians deserve to be paid for their work, just as everyone else is? Or should they make a substantial investment in time, money and effort, in rerun for nothing?

In other words, if you have a job, would you be happy to do it for free? How much of your own money would you invest in working for free?

Yes, there is a law that prohibits photocopying. There is no law that prevents one from writing something down from memory. That is your failure point here.

Then Burney broke the law by copying it and distributing it.

btarded · 25 days

Yes, obviously.

The OP is fairly pointless anyway. There were lots of people that were copying sheet music of other people's work and selling it. That is what led to the copyright laws to protect songwriters work. That is the intention of the original copyright laws for music in the 19th century.

A lot of people were willfully breaking the laws by taking things that didn't apply to them. Much why copyright law changes that will be coming are to combat the people breaking the law now. These people don't see themselves as guilty of anything- they feel that they are entitled to take the work done by others as some sort of entitlement. Of course, none of those people work at a job and do not get paid.

Interestingly, the copyright laws in the 19th century had a major effect. Popular songwriting exploded and vastly more songs were written during that period and onward. It's doubtful that American Music would have progressed through the Jazz era and beyond without protecting composers and make it possible from them to earn a living from their work.

The US has generally precede copyright and patent holders. It fosters innovation. China is facing issues with innovation in their culture because they have limited history in protecting innovation.

Th law I've read says that PHOTO COPYING is illegal. You claim is only your assertion unless you can cite something that says a handwritten music manuscript is illegal- UNDER the law.

You're doing a lot of mental gymnastics to try to say that something is illegal without being able to cite any specific law that covers this- or ANY CASE that has ever been prosecuted in which someone has been accused of hand writing something for personal use only.

From your link:

Art which uses found objects, cultural references, preexisting stories may be protected under the fair use doctrine.

To decide whether a use is "fair use" or not, courts consider:

the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit education purposes;
the nature of the copyrighted work;
the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and,
the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. 17 U.S.C. 107(1-4)

Here is info on US law covering Fair Use. Fair use is also covered in the Digital Millennium act- you may make a copy of a CD you own for your own personal use for example. I would like to see ANY example of anyone ever sued for copyright infringement for writing something down from memory.

" There are three things Mozart's handwritten tune could be: original, copy or derivative. "

It could also be a handwritten sheet from memory which is not a violation of actual law. And if this thin string of evidence you are trying to make ever came to court it would be covered under 'fair use' for personal use only.

The is mentioned at the bottom of the page of the source you are citing as evidence. (Which is a blog, BTW, not an actual law).

btarded · 26 days

Sigh. It's not a derivative work by the link you cited. And you were not able to cite any law for your assertion that making a handwritten copy from memory for personal use violates any copyright law.

btarded · 26 days

Well, you are citing Derivative works- which is more akin to plagiarism.

From the top of the page:

"Derivative Works

If you are an author or an artist and you want to use all or part of someone else's creation in your work, you may run into problems with claims that your art is a derivative work."

So that does not apply in this case by a long shot.

Can you find me a lint that proves this assertion is actually the law?

Thanks.

No, it is illegal to PHOTOCOPY sheet music. It's not illegal to write something down. Sorry. Making a photocopy of some this is not the same as 'even owning a copy of their song'. One is an act (photocopying) and the other is being in possession of something.

btarded · 26 days

No, it is illegal to PHOTOCOPY sheet music. It's not illegal to write something down.

DERPA HERRR DERP.

Hearing a song, remembering it and then playing it on an instrument is not piracy.

IF he wrote down the music, printed an infinite number of copies and threw them out the window, while the printer made a millions, it would be an nearly apt analogy.
