Hi Guix,
I am not a musician.
I understand almost nothing about music.
But God gave me a song with two different texts.
One text is for praising God,
the second text for supporting Guix / free software,
which is my contribution to free software.
I don’t know much about the history of Guix,
so I beg your pardon,
if somebody dislikes the text
or if I have annoyed someone.
Changes are welcome.
An English native speaker,
or somebody who knows English well
and has some poetic and rhyming skills
can change the text to a nicer one.
Proposals are welcome, as it is in Guix:
teamwork brings the best results.
I put the song down in "Musescore 3.6.2"
and recorded it with "obs"
Beware, the notes are 1,5 Tones higher than written because of the capo
on the 3.fret.
When I opened it in frescobaldi, ly.file, there appeared strange chords.
I also exported it to a
midi file,
mkv file,
pdf.file,
ly.file,
mp4.file,
in order to listen to the melody,
if somebody like.
I created the song with a simply headset
(doesn't sound good,
but at least you can catch the melody).
I have no audio interface and don’t know how to use it in Guix.
You can check the song with the package:
"vlc (media player)",
"audacious",
"audacity broke down, when I started it.
in the terminal: "timidity Guix.mid"
I don’t know how it works with copyright,
I simply put "copyright GP" on the bottom,
(so that my name stays in the background).
Suggestions are welcome.
Somebody, who has a nice voice, can,
after may be changing the text,
record the song.
happy supporting Guix
Gottfried
