Phill,
Dithering is the process of intentionally adding noise to the signal prior to its quantization. Dithering turns quantization distortion all the way down by randomizing quantization errors.
Dithering is mostly used when down-converting from the higher resolution bit-depths - such as 24-bit or 32-bit - down to 16-bit, the actual standard for distributing digital audio files. Dithering is also used during the analog-to-digital conversion and inside A/D converters, although noise inherent in the analog signal often serves as a natural source of dither in these cases.

I really have no idea what that means, I have enough trouble playing f's and bm chords!

With that said,   my mama used to tell me that if I dithered to much I'd go blind, so I just did it til I needed glasses ! 

Hope you had a great day Phill - with or without dithering!

That is awesome, man !   

Those are terrific lyrics.  Great message. 

As a teacher of  and coach of 40 years, I have seen schools do the same thing to long time educators that have devoted their lives to so many students. All of a sudden they get the hits end of the schedules and worse scenarios to handle - in an effort to encourage  them to retire so it will save the district $$$$$$.

Your message is somewhat different because it's by choice to leave - and for all the right reasons. 

It doesn't get any better than to be able to live in  peace at " home" , with someone you love, surrounded by the beauty of nature.  If you have those, and your health,  you have it all, no billions can buy it. For me it's being with my wife and my daughters during  Springtime in the great hills and valleys of central NY and the beaches of Topsail Island of NC - it totally rejuvinates my soul.

Thanks to both Tenement Funster and D Ed for sharing such valuable words - it made my morning.

ps Ed - are you going to post with chords on songwriting ? I would love to hear how this goes.

Excellent Graham, very nicely done

go to the green area right above where your post is located in songwriting.  click on it and the directions are right there. It's really pretty cool, and easy once you get the hang of it. Thanks for the lizrd pic - I love it !

Holy crap can that man plays a wicked guitar - that is incredible ! Thanks for introducing me to that awesome guitar playing.  I play at about 1/100th that speed    WOW ! Thanks again!

Phill,

you can't put that out there without sharing !! C'mon - I want to hear "magie coulter" !!!

Happy St. Davids

I really like your   song - very strong emotional story, conjures up lots of scenarios - lets the listener fit their own pieces in.

I was wondering though - Was the line in stanza three last line supposed to say  I "never" saw  depression ,war or disease   ?

My thought on a title would be Devil's brew

good song - I like it a lot.

google soundcloud -  click on the link to it,   create and account ( it's free)    then just follow prompts ... You have to have your song in Mp3 or Eav format so you can upload

This has nothing to do with going camping.  : ) 

I just listened to some of your songs that you posted and I wanted to tell you that you have an outstanding voice.  The energy,pleasantness, and fun like passion that you emit is awesome.  I was only going to listen to one song, but I  really enjoyed listening so much,  I found myself going to and fro among your songs.  Very nice !!   Enjoy the blizzards and sub zero weather we are experiencing in upstate NY !!    Thanks for the ear candy, it made for a pleasant early Sunday morning  Amy.

They only thing it's missing is at the end it says - " oh yeah, we were playing in the wrong bar

Good lyrices Graham - can't wait for the music

Jim
