"I gave a simple opinion of bad noise that some folks call music. That would be someone who knows 3 chords, can't play more than one type scale in the same key, and yanks on the handle to bend the same note all night and doesn't know that Gb is a black note on a keyboard."
This I almost agree with ( that seems odd doesn't it ), just I dont take it to the extreme of ANYONE that has overdrive or distortion suffers from these problems. Funny thing is getting your viewpoint on guitar when "If I played guitar" is your only backing, get a guitar learn how to play it then spew your enlightenment out. Cause this noise guitar fantasy you speak of is priceless...I would love some real world connection of it in action "yanks on the handle to bend the same note all night." You know that "handle" has a name, quiet a few in fact. Your three chord slant is also over the top, that is unless half of Hank Williams songs are in fact trash.
"Looks like you've taken this personally. Is this you? If you can really play a guitar, I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about someone who can't play and just makes noise to fool people. Again, is this you? If not, you’re all upset over nothing."
I think after the track I sent its clear I have no issue. Who in the heck is the "you" this is like the third time ive gotten this.
"If this is you, print out my above post and read it every day until it sinks in. I'm doing you a favor by encouraging you to practice practice practice."

"There are probably hundreds of very good Sax players. Keyboardists, Guitarist, so on and so forth that have no idea where to push the record button on a recorder. Does that mean they aren't good musicians. Of course not! "
Nope it doesn't, only a musician that has the ability to engineer has an advantage ( as Im sure you have noticed ).
"There are probably hundreds of thousands of recording engineers that don't know an Eb from a C. Probably that's why they are recording engineers instead of musicians. Maybe they can only make noise with a guitar."
For the most part much like the last thing I spoke of, an engineer that has a musical mind will have an advantage over one that doesn't.
"All of you real guitarist probably feel the same way about the noise guitarist as I do. They are entertainers not really musicians. There will never be an agreement between musicians and noisemakers of what is music and what is not."
So now if your entertaining your not a musician?
"This reminds me of folks who want to compare golf as a sport in the same category as football. No matter how much the talk about it, it isn’t going to happen. ."
Errrr ok
"Music is music . Noise is noise."
And someone that cant listen past a sonic texture is a fool.
"I hope you really can play so you’ll get the message and calm down. I may need you to teach me how to use this recorder. I’m still struggling to be a musician. All I want to do is make a decent Demo for my prospects. OK?"
You need to calm down as someone that has stated reasons they can't make their own backing tracks with the scapegoat of it being work and that they can't play live with any bands or solo over a ton of trivial fantasy excuses shouldn't question the musicianship of another.
I have no problem with teaching, in fact I enjoy it...when Im getting paid or like the person or happen to love what their doing. Few days back had the joy of recording some traditional musicians from Scotland, and now am in the middle editing some film footage from their time in states for a "Socumentary" of sorts ( sorry that was random ).
That said I dont know you, Im not getting paid, and if your using pre fab styles with the ambition of dumping sax lines on top of it I dont care what your doing.
The manuel read it read it read it.
