>Hey Anon, I really like this song! What key is it in?
>What? You can't even tell me that? I thought you were a musician...
>tonal music
it's 2016 why do you listen to this pleb shit
>>65238059
perfect pitch is a meme, relative pitch is all that matters
>tfw born with perfect pitch and exceptional auditory memory
I seriously can't imagine how you fucks live your lives without this
they say you can't develop perfect pitch but I honestly think I am. I'm slowly getting better at hearing the key and I remember music in its absolute pitch (always have).
Relative pitch matters a lot more than perfect pitch. You don't need to have perfect pitch to be a great musician although it certainly helps. Relative pitch is necessary to be a great musician imo but it can be learned whereas true perfect pitch can't.
>>65238059
i think you're mixing up the ability to tell if one pitch is higher or lower than the other with the ability to tell what note a pitch is, which is only useful for making music or if you're autistic
>>65239110
i can't imagine how you live your life when your only bragging rights are your auditory abilities. get some pussy, faggot
>>65239247
What about my incredibly successful musical career?
>an compose literal entire albums in my head
>have no way of creating them
>forget about them the next day
true suffereing
>>65239316
not as good as mine, seriously. keep basing your musical ability in song memorization or whatever the fuck you're doing with your diamond eardrums. i'll keep making 3 figures a year at 19 by making music, doing what i love
>>65239600
what kinds of albums?
>>65239600
why don't you have a way of creating them?
if you have perfect pitch, writing them down on a composition program should be trivial
Can someone explain pitch to me?
What is music like to people with perfect pitch?
>>65239891
anon is confused or memeing
perfect pitch means you can tell by ear what note is played. so if you hear a note, you know offhand it's g, for example.
music isn't different to people with it, what's relevant for music is being able to perceive notes relative to each other
>>65239949
Well anybody can learn that, you have to be at least educated in basic music stuff to be able to tell what note/key it's actually in.
>>65239600
The struggle is real friend. Even if you do decide to hum or sing that line into a voice recorder, you still will have to jump the hurdle of putting it down on paper.
>>65239076
this, perfect pitch would be nice, but relative is enough for me and most other musicians.
Not having perfect pitch doesn't mean you're tone deaf.
>>65239648
Oh man 3 figures, living the high life
>>65239648
sure you will, bud
>>65238059
Is this like, a top-down view where the music is being sucked in through the mouth?
>>65241239
Hundreds a year. CAN YOU KEEP UP?

If you have a musical instrument close to hand, you're right, but just identifying it by the note itself is really rare.
wikipedia:
>Researchers estimate the occurrence of AP to be 1 in 10,000 people.[5]
>Those with absolute pitch may train their relative pitch, but there are no reported cases of an adult obtaining absolute pitch ability through musical training; adults who possess relative pitch but do not already have absolute pitch can learn "pseudo-absolute pitch" and become able to identify notes in a way that superficially resembles absolute pitch.[8] Moreover, training pseudo-absolute pitch requires considerable motivation, time, and effort, and learning is not retained without constant practice and reinforcement.[9]

>tfw you suck at identifying notes in a key different from your main instrument
This is why I don't play my alto sax (2004-2012) or music in general.
>>65241638
Yeah, it's called having a part time job.
>>65239648
>3 figures
I made way more than that when I was 16 by babysitting
>>65239110
Lucky cunt
When you get high do you see sounds
>>65242528
not that guy but i see sounds when i'm not high as very well defined shapes, lines & waves in my head
basically just intense synesthesia
>>65239891
I have absolute pitch (the actual term) and the only difference is that I can recall what key music is in if I listened to it more than once. That's literally it.
>>65239600
that same feel. Evertime I take a shower I'm able to come up with a ton of shit in my head
I don't know what Synesthesia really is, I just know that songs and sounds are colours in my head. I know that my favourite songs tend to be deep blue or purple or yellow or intense oranges.
Which are not my favourite colours. I'unno, it makes it hard for me to review music because the foremost thought in my head for a lot of music is "that track is really red" and stuff like that.
>>65239648
>three figures
Wow, so you have a paper route you do during the summer?
>>65239600
same
Is perfect pitch dependent on tuning system ?
