Would any know how to imitate a Fairground Organ ( aka Band Organ) (aka Military Band organ) (aka Wurlitzer^TM Band Organ) (aka Street organ) into NWC???

P.S. I dot't think a street organ is a band organ..Am I right?

I am thinking of making a Fairground Organ NWC File or Julius Fucik's Die Regimentskinder aka (Children Regiment March) or even known as (Children of the Regiment March).The Opus No. is Op.169 for those music freaks out there.

Have you tried the Tango Accordian?
You might try mixing Tango Accordian and Hammond Organ.
Using a MPC, make the Hammond Organ slightly out of tune.

Perhaps because no-one is sure how to get closer. I have tried the combination you have and reckon it gets pretty close.

What's lacking (IMHO) is that with fairground organs, and the like, there are also other things going on at the same time. So in addition to the sound you now have, you need to add in channels that perhaps have flutes trilling, some bells, possibly some brass somewhere.
But I don't think that it would be just a matter of using a straight copy of one of the current staves and changing the instrument.

Perhaps not a lot of help but I think it would take you in the right direction.

Never Mind, I am just keeping it in piano. I might but it in brass band or concert band later, or maybe just brass quintet. Maybe, if I want, I do what you said, and I'll experiment, but for now..I'm going to experiment with it.

Well, I made an attempt to help you. Do you consider me a nobody?
Also, I'm sorry that it took me 20 whole hours to get back here.
You're acting a bit like "user111" - impatient and unappreciative.

Just found it! Works [glow=blue,2,300]nearly[/glow] like the old forum but doesn't automatically highlight in a way that you would realise that there's an acronym there..

E.G.
As standard:
TOAF

With a manual modifier:
TOAFWAM

"Mouseover" both sets of initials and you will see the extra text.

*ping* Eric. Mate, I wonder if the forum could be modified to automagically add a broken underline for acronyms allsame as the old forum?

BTW, is everyone seeing the NWC2 clips above inline, or in a scrollable box? I'm getting them inline which makes this a [glow=red,2,300]very[/glow] long thread to navigate through. I'm aware that you're supposed to encase clips in "code" tags, but I thought Eric had automated that, or was he just talking about possibly, maybe doing it...?

KAT, I am not, I have experimented, and no longer, need help. I am satisified with what I have!!!! I used both your method and Richard's, with using his trills. I was wrong, you guys (yuck - guys and gals) had helped me through. It was my fault to act "user111ish" on you guys. After I had posted that, I changed my mind, to help myself, but using your ideas. Thank You.
I also listened to MP3's here at www.wurlitzer-rolls.com.
Yes, I do understand, that I is impossible to immitate the sound, but your method is closest as I can get.
Sorry for being impaitent. I was appreciative, all the time, you just didn't know.
Well, guess what..time to go off topic
Lawrie, how can you do this acromyn thing-a-ma-bobber??
P.S. That was my fault!!!! I typed the codes that way,I couldn't do it in one post, the maximum post size was less than the codes. My fault.

Hmm, Interesting...

I've just 'ad a look at this thread with FF on my linux box and would you believe, the acronym feature [glow=red,2,300]does[/glow] give a dotted underline in FF. Just not in IE on my Windows box...

Josh, the code for an acronym is:

[ acronym=Test of acronym feature ]TOAF[ /acronym ] (modified with spaces between the brackets so the tags will show instead of being executed)

Which will give:
TOAF

or my second example with the manual underline:

With a manual modifier:
[ acronym=Test of acronym feature with a modifier ][ u ]TOAFWAM[ /u ][ /acronym ]

which gives:
TOAFWAM

BTW, in order to put the NWC2 clips into scroll boxes, you need to surround them with # code tags:
I.E.
[ code ]
clip text
[ /code ]

again, I've added spaces between the brackets so the tags will show instead of being executed.

Post by: Josh, The Magnificent Composer on 2006-02-26 03:47 PM

What do you think of the second time through trick in the first and second repeats with the bells???
I got that trick from Fred Nachbaur, in one of his songs, well....can anyone tell me which one it is, I knew it was one of them.

Title: Re: Fairground Organ ( aka Band Ogan) in NWC??
Post by: Josh, The Magnificent Composer on 2006-02-26 03:58 PM

[glow=yellow,2,300]Aha!![/glow] Found it. Bridge, or wait......Bridge the gap too? the NWC file told me that Bridge the Gap was the Expanded FM (What in the heck is FM????? I've heard of it before) version of bridge.

Oh..BTW, Rich, I think you should make a seperate section in the scriptorium for Fred Nachbaur. he is cool, with good songs, And not all of them are in there either.

Lawrie, when I mouseover the initials, I just get a "highlight/cut/copy" type of cursor - I get no extra text. My system's been a bit weird lately - I'll try again after a reboot.

Josh, thanks for the apology - that's very "un-user111ish" of you.
And my apology for going off on you.

OK, what I get in IE is a normal arrowhead pointer until I reach the acronym. At that point my cursor changes to the usual "I" beam you normally see in an editor - is that what you mean? Once the cursor changes, if you wait about another 1/2 second, the additional text should appear in a box that has a 'straw' or pale yellow background.

In FireFox (FF or Fx depending on where you are I guess) the acronym appears to have a dotted underline and when you mouseover it the cursor changes in exactly the same way as IE and the text then appears in a litlle box.

I've also noted that the "Glow" works differently in IE on WinXP to FF on linux. On the latter it looks like the background has had a colour change, it isn't the coloured outline that IE on WinXP gives.

Nobody mentioned downloading a suitable organ Soundfont and putting it onto your sound card.

Yes, the "I" beam is what "I" mean.
Today, all works fine (yesterday, I had another browser window open with a [glow=red,2,300]Flash [/glow] thingy in it that I was going to show to my kids - I think that's what caused the interference).
Now if can just learn the new way to [abbr=Yeah, I know it's not a verb]acronym[/abbr]...

We will improve the acronym style. Please do not add acronym styles on your own, as they will interfere with our improvements.
