[@Latear85]

Thank you . This was so helpful.

[@DJPeterLo]

I don’t know why KZbin recommendation algorithms haven’t recommended your content to me sooner. This is great!

[@mescaleo5597]

Your explanation is really clear and able to understand easily,thank you

[@djshortee]

You're most welcome! So glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@RaineCarosin]

i FINALLY get it! It all seems logical now: a Guy I met years and years ago told me his one Friend could SEE MUSIC ... that was absurd as a concept to me ... i mean, yes, i knew already from a young age about sheet music but the way the Guy explained it was that the Friend could see music in colours while it was playing ... this was back in 1980/2 ... watching your video i saw what can explain how we SEE MUSIC with the lights and colours on the visual graphs animating the sounds ... i wonder to myself now: how high was i back then ... ????👠

[@NewEnglandPatriotsfan]

Excellent, if you can put two songs together in your head you can DJ also, would be easier that way. Just has to sound right and not like a train wreck lol

[@HAPfilm]
