In my honest opinion i don't see the point to publish a thread with a very very, very poor notewatching work for a singer. Don't know the size of this guy discography, but probably you should wait to have a significant stuff notewatched before put it here, even for "Work in progress-threads" this is very, very limited.

Also... Ohh forget it, just realized you already erased that "C♭"  note on the post lol

[centrifuge]

Actually, it's not a matter of notewatching, it's more or less me getting used to the coding. I'm basically setting my foundation for when I continue soon by establishing the highest and lowest notes first. As for the redundancy of writing C♭, I don't even have words to explain that. True brain flatulence there.

Edit: I published it because I'd probably just end up losing progress otherwise. Unless there's a save button I somehow missed, which would be even MORE embarrassing than the C♭ thing.

you could just go into the code of the thread and copy and paste it onto a separate document to save your progress 

some people just type out the whole thing in google docs as well

I think this dude's lows begin little higher than D2 Like A2 Or B2 And You Probably Shouldn't Begin His Highs All the Way Up to C5 Probably Go with E4 Or F4 OR Maybe C4 Or D4 Depending on How Low HIs Voice Is

I went with his most extremes first. I intend on filling out a lot today.

[Seb]

Welcome to TRP! If I may provide a bit of input, I have reason to believe that A♭6 might be questionable. I listened to the entire song it's from and couldn't hear it, and it's quite a big gap in this vocalist's range. Also, A5 is placed between B4 and C5 on the thread. Just a few things to note. Anyhow, hope you enjoy finishing this thread.

[Macca]

there's a reason that there called significant high and low notes you don't have to put every note he has sung
edit: also get rid that ugly spacing between each title and don't but every into separate parentheses

Right. I just checked other posts for reference and I see what I did wrong. As for the first part, I'm not entirely sure what you mean. It's (probably?) because of the limited amount of songs I have listed right now. I reused them more times than I'd say looks right, but could you clarify?

Now, as for this... that was just guitar, upon a close listen. There's a lot going on in that part of the song (Around 3:19)

[Macca]

just do what I said make his lows begin at B2 His Highs Definitely Don't Start at E4 That Would Be where His Highs should start

[Seb]

I think that Michael's significant lower notes seem better off started at E♭3 or D3 but alas, it's centrifuge's choice

[centrifuge]

His lower register is still really high.

I think something clicked in my brain, I now understand "significant". Indeed,

That's a good spot. Thanks for the feedback, dudes ;p

[Macca]

and now you have his highs begin at F3 just make his high start at F#4
edit: also put the notes that strikethrough into the spoilered Questionable notes and get rid of them in the main section

Which is to say, basically cut out some of the insignificant notes? Sure.

...You took ones that didn't need to be green and made them green?

[Macca]

what I put them exactly how you made them just with some color correction

[centrifuge]

Alright, I guess those are harsh enough vocals

Edit: Nevermind, they really are just head voice with grit. I've determined them as regular notes. They appeared blue because I didn't color correct them to black. They most certainly aren't falsetto.

Around the 2:40 mark. It's not super sustained, but he does hit it.

Is there still ugly spacing? I though I fixed that. If you mean the gaps between the text "Significant High Notes" and "Significant Low Notes", I just formatted it that way because I saw others do the same, and it looks less claustrophobic.


Edit: Nevermind, I see what you did. That's proper. Thank you.

I guess I will have to take your word for it. Doesnt sound overly high to me. Its harder for me to tell when its a distorted scream.
