Carnival Of Horror: Keys & More

I’m currently rearranging the octaves in Carnival Of Horror. We wrote the song using GP5, and it sounded great in it. However, the better GP6 actually notates keyboard parts right, and the whole song is off in places. Mainly the left hand rhythm parts are an octave or two higher than they should be, and it’s creating conflicting fingerings. I’m pretty much rewriting the entire keyboard part by creating an acoustic piano version of the song. I’m not changing anything other than the octaves here and there to make sure that everything can be played the way I actually played it when writing the song.

After the acoustic piano version is finished I’ll get some audio of it up. Next, I will be working on the full band version of the song. I know I will be changing the solo somewhat, and may also change one of the parts close to the end. I can just never remember that part is coming up for some reason. I guess it just doesn’t click for me.

I’ve been working on some of our music off and on over the last few weeks, and been practicing covers as well. I think we are going to get back into playing more, which is a great thing! Oh well… I’m off of here for now to work on this song.
