(The pitch)
I.T. has evolved and so has the consumer. Most argue that listeners do not pay attention to a bloody darn thing in the songs apart from the chorus.
Music as is currently one sided and what you hear is what you get.
Have you every dreamed of improving the quality of music by 100000 fold
or have you ever listened to a song that maybe had a hi-hat that was annoying you ?
How about the possibility of cutting out the drum track completely from any-song ?
How about cutting some of the bass off that guitar ?
The next generation of music encoders will feature raw music files stored on giant memory units allowing consumers to attain the sound they want out of tunes without any compromise.
The power to create an encoding format that runs as a simple and easy to use digital audio workstation is upon us.
Now whos buying stocks ?
(The meat)
I am trying now to develop this idea I had.
Basically music would not be compressed (encoded for you cave-men) any-more and listeners have more options on songs (such as a simple eq or reverb or alternate takes of instrument tracks).
The program running the tracks would have a gui. With a mixer that plays each track and each track would have a few parameters.
But it would be a simple render of the bass and the guitar and the synths and the drums and the vocals and the fx. No- more no less (well there is room for improvements).
Than upon hitting play all the wav files would play at the same time. And these wav files would have to be pre-rendered to fit really well in the mix.
A bunch of special features can be added. Like alternative takes on the instrument and vocal tracks basically you could turn a rock song into an acoustic song.
I think even tempo change could be implemented.
I do not know jack about developing soft-ware. But I am going to start searching high and low to get this project started.
Maybe Microsoft will pick it up and take out itunes with it.
Either way. The work involved in delivering the "decoded" songs will add jobs for studios and also weed out the weak from the strong.
Right now its just an idea eating away at my brain. I hope some-body out there can help.
Cheers.
Alex "Dude" Dragomir.
