Page’s finest minute! STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN, THE PRECISE SPEED OF THE GUITAR SOLO AND A REPLY TO CUBASE®’S “oh, yeah?! what about the *solo*” Query – Proof: Videos, Maps, Sheet Music Proof of PURCHASE.

Cubase®, the mediocre company, was looking at the post contained on this site on the Led Zeppelin song called STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN.  Unable to recreate anything I did by computer exposes Cubase®’s severe limits and over-representations of its quality.

I received an email from same Cubase® asking in angry envy: “oh yeah, what is the speed of the SOLO?”

Only after a phone call from same company told me to PUT UP OR SHUTUP did I decide to put the solo up, all 20 measures, beat by beat.  Eat it, Cubase®.  For the rest of y’all: do not look at it if you want to keep your “mystery” element of the song.  Anyone wanting to see the solo: the admission is priceless, therefore, FREE.

This is the solo, recreated by a YouTube guitarist, in question:

James Manningsan and new intern OLIVIA STRAIGHT worked days, days and many days to make sure our measurements of tempo correct, because it is not every day one can talk back at the bold-yet-irrelevant arrogance at Cubase®, America’s biggest advertiser of tempo software that DOES NOT HAVE THE REQUISITE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO “DISCERN” exactly where the beat is.  If such software existed, robots would have been outdancing humans for over a decade.  CUBASE: how ya doing ay those silent beat algorithms?  Be real, Cubase: I love you all, but I would appreciate candor and a STOPPING OF HYPERBOLE AND FSALSE PROMISES!  Look what happened to the Stanford fraud.  Look at how MixMeister is being exposed for that which they can do well – same as you – and that which they cannot, same as you.  Who is buying this?  As the Beatles said, “THINK FOR YOURSELF.”

the speed of the moment from 1/2 Hertz – 2 1/4 Hertz can be broken down in a phenomenology that is natural.  I invented nothing – I simply saw the order trying to  in chaos and spent 21 years calibrating over 15,00 carefully chosen pieces of music trying to OBJECTIVELY DISPROVE MYSELF.  Haven’t.  Then again, those of you who log on every day know the theory is if not correct at least valid and so overwhelmingly shown by preponderance of evidence as to be obvious.
