comment How can I construct analogue oscillators that stay in tune?
@NReilingh: Yes, but oiling the valves is standard maintenance of a brass instrument. The question here is more in the line of designing and producing an electrical instrument, which is not in the scope here on Music... The question Rob posted on Electronics got a good response, and definitely on topic there.

comment Is there some symbolic meaning to breaking all the instruments during or at the end of your music video?
I think "artistic expression" and "gimmick" is just two different ways of describing the same thing. It is certainly used in different context, but both describe basically the same concept in different forms. You may say that "artistic expression" is a fancy and maybe more sophisticated expression for "gimmick".

Actually, my answer does focus on what happens during a performance. You give additional insight to this important aspect, and I give you +1 for your answer.

comment What is a 13th chord?
@VarLogRant: I think you should edit the original text "third and fifth" to say the correct "root and fifth" instead of adding a correction as extra text in the post. It will be better to just leave a comment addressed to gurney alex to say that he is right, and you fixed it in answer. Letting the wrong text standing, might misinform people that does not read the entire thing to the end. By the way - don't leave a comment to answer me - just fix it, and I will remove this comment...

comment Musical notation/tablature for isomorphic instruments
@andrewdotnich: When you say "one tone apart", do you mean as notes in a C major scale, or as half steps as in 12 tone scale?

comment Why does conventional playing style give the string manipulation to the left hand?
@AlexBasson: Yes, there is no doubt this is so for a reason, and there are many proves that it is like this because it is the most natural way, but the question is : Why is this the most natural way to play a guitar? It is actually a good question.

comment Is there a special way to notate a repeat for the right (treble) hand but not the left (bass) hand?
@Luke: Yes, when using double slash, it means repeat two measures unless specified with a number above. I have actually never seen repetition more than 2 measures, but I'm sure it exists. In this example you see that there is also a vertical line across the middle, wich also indicates that there are two measures, but this is how Lilypond does it. I have also seen the double percentage repeat used without the extra measure split line, but it still means repeat two measures.
