    USER MANUAL 1.0.2 EASTWEST | GHOSTWRITER IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTE! Our Revolutionary New Opus Software Engine Our brand new Opus software engine has been years in development, and replaces the Play engine. All EastWest Libraries (with the exception of the original Hollywood Orchestra, the original Hollywood Solo Instruments, and the MIDI Guitar Series) are supported in Opus, allowing them to take advantage of a faster, more powerful, more flexible, and better looking software engine. Opus comes with some incredible new features such as individual instrument down- loads, customized key-switches, new effects for the mixer page, scalable retina user interface upgrades for legacy products, a powerful new script language, and many more features that allow you to completely customize the sound of each instrument. It’s one of the most exciting developments in the history of our company and will be the launching pad for many exciting new products in the future.

You can update your current/existing projects to Opus if you so choose, or leave them saved within Play. After purchasing or upgrading to Opus you do not need to use Play, but it may be more convenient to make small adjustments to an older composition in your DAW loading the instruments saved in Play instead of replacing them with Opus. For any new composi- tion, just use Opus.

  • The Ethical Implications of Plagiarism and Ghostwriting in an Open Society
    Journal of Social Change 2017, Volume 9, Issue 1, Pages 55–63 ©Walden University, LLC, Minneapolis, MN DOI: 10.5590/JOSC.2017.09.1.04 The Ethical Implications of Plagiarism and Ghostwriting in an Open Society Patricia I. Fusch Walden University Lawrence R. Ness Walden University Janet M. Booker Walden University Gene E. Fusch Walden University Plagiarism is the theft of intellectual property. Plagiarism has been a problem in academic settings and appears to be on the increase, now moving into areas including the medical and scientific fields as well as industry, manufacturing, military, and legal briefs. The ethical implications can have serious consequences for organizations, individuals, and society, resulting in harm being done to others in favor of expediency. In this scholarly essay, the authors explore and discuss the ethical implications of plagiarism and the increase of ghostwriting in a free society through the writings of Kant, Popper, Kostenbaum, Plato, Whedbee, and others. The conclusion is that the act of stealing is not the true crime; rather, it is the act of deception that inflicts moral harm on all parties by damaging the reputation of self and others, insulting others’ intelligence, and harming the integrity of all. The intended audience is students in their first year of a doctoral program. Keywords: plagiarism, ghostwriting, ethics, ethical organizational leadership Introduction At the turn of the 21st century, plagiarism seemed to be more in the forefront of the media and has included issues from students copying assignments off the Internet to office theft of ideas and industrial espionage. While plagiarism has been a problem for some time (Mehrnoush & Lashkarian, 2015) and appears to be on the increase, this challenge is now moving into areas previously perceived as unlikely to be affected.

His music has gained critical acclaim and success over the past ten years, winning two Grammys as well as countless other awards. By avoiding the traps faced by ​ mainstream artists, Frank Ocean has resisted allowing others to control his art and creative process. Frank Ocean released various projects throughout his career that assisted in the growth and exposure of himself as an artist. His works include two studio albums, eight music videos, a visual album, and eighteen singles. Many of his original songs have charted countless times on the Billboard Hot 100, both on his own and in collaboration with others. Eight of his solo efforts ​ ​ have reached that standing, including “Novacane,” “Thinkin Bout You,” “Chanel,” “Nikes,” “Ivy,” “Pink + White,” “Solo,” and “Nights.” All of his compositions include an emotional narrative as well as a beautifully composed musical structure.

  • “Straight Outta Compton”—NWA (1988)
    “Straight Outta Compton”—N.W.A (1988) Added to the National Registry: 2016 Essay by Ben Westhoff (guest post)* “Straight Outta Compton” LP N..W.A Gangsta rap existed before “Straight Outta Compton,” but N.W.A’s landmark 1988 album popularized the genre and serves as its standard bearer even today. The mythology of the artists behind its creation also continues to loom large: Eazy-E, the Compton crack dealer who used his profits to finance a hip-hop career; Dr. Dre, his neighbor who’d most recently been DJ-ing in flamboyant, sequined outfits for a song-and-dance group; Ice Cube, the ostentatious high school rapper from South Central Los Angeles whose writing gifts matched his aggressive delivery. But it was the characters they imagined--both militarized street kids sick of being humiliated by the cops and brash punks on the hunt for sex and cheap booze--that shaped the album, marching in time to Dr. Dre’s assault of chopped samples, wailing sirens, guitar riffs, and rapid drum machine beats, all of it more tuneful than it sounds on paper. Rounded out by the group’s other firebrand rapper, MC Ren, Dr. Dre’s production partner, MC Yella, and electro-rap holdover Arabian Prince--not to mention hugely influential ghostwriter D.O.C.--N.W.A reshaped hip-hop music in their own image. They called it “reality rap,” but in the beginning it was far from clear that N.W.A would rap unvarnished lyrics threatening the status quo. Dr. Dre and Ice Cube’s earlier music disparaged the gang lifestyle, and just about everyone in the group admired Prince.

Disclaimer: The opinions expressed herein are based on extensive research and conversations with literary agents, editors, ghostwriters, clients, and publishing industry analysts. The sole purpose of this book is to help educate people about a little-understood area of the publishing industry and to enable people to intelligently select the right ghostwriters for their projects. No allegation of illegality is made or intended against any individual or corporation. 3 Introduction The most important thing to do when hiring a ghostwriter is get to know the ghost so that you can tell whether he or she is the right fit. So let me tell you a little about myself and share my background with you in Part 1 of this book. Part 2 is devoted to short, easy- to-read points on the process of hiring a ghostwriter when confronted with a dizzying array of websites promising you the sun and the moon when it comes to writing or publishing your book. The last time I checked, the sun and the moon weren’t for sale. You need to do your due diligence and educate yourself about publishing and the ghostwriting process. You wouldn’t choose just any doctor to treat your illness, and you shouldn’t select just anyone to write your book.

A consumer buys a book by a fa- vorite author, but that author did not produce it. A consumer buys the auto- biography of a favorite public figure, hoping to understand that person’s mind and get to know that person better, but the words and the story do not have the form that the famed public figure would have given them. Doctors prescribe medication with side effects that experts debate, ignorant that those favoring the medication received their ideas and their articles from the pharmaceutical company selling the medication. Testimony before Congress about the effects of tobacco advertising comes from a tobacco company puppet. A presidential candidate uses a book tour as a campaign tool and uses that book to prove a facility with words, logic, and intellectual pursuits that the candidate does not actually have.

Instead, artists find themselves searching for other forms to help them market their music. This leads them to overspend on expensive services in hopes that they can get their names more known. Musicians may feel discouraged when they don’t see the results they hope for, especially online and with other competitors. Because of this, musicians feel less confident in their success in the music industry.

  • Automatic Generation of Rap Lyrics Using Sequence-To-Sequence Learning
    DeepLyricist: Automatic Generation of Rap Lyrics using Sequence-to-Sequence Learning Nils Hulzebosch Student ID: 10749411 A thesis presented for the degree of Bachelor Artificial Intelligence 18 ECTS Faculty of Science University of Amsterdam Netherlands July 2, 2017 M.Sc. Mostafa Dehghani Dr. Sander van Splunter University of Amsterdam University of Amsterdam [email protected] [email protected] First supervisor Second supervisor Abstract This thesis demonstrates the use of sequence-to-sequence learning for the automatic generation of novel English rap lyrics, with the goal of generating lyrics with similar qualities to those of humans in terms of rhyme, idiom, structure, and novelty. The sequence-to-sequence model tries to learn the best parameters for generating target sequences given source sequences, and is trained on over 1.6 million source-target pairs, containing lyrics from 348 different rap artists. The automatic evaluations of each of the four characteristics show that idiom and structure have the best performance, whereas rhyme and novelty should be improved to be in a similar range of human lyrics. Future research could focus on using hierarchical models to improve the learning and generation of rhyme, structure, and possibly novelty, and implementing a sampled probability to increase the uniqueness of generated lyrics. 1 Contents Acknowledgements 4 1 Introduction 5 2 Related work 6 3 Characteristics of rap lyrics 7 3.1 Rhyme . .7 3.2 Rhyme schemes . .9 3.3 Song structure . 10 3.4 Idiom . 11 3.5 Novelty . 12 4 Evaluation Methodology 12 4.1 Rhyme . 12 4.1.1 Modified rhyme density . 13 4.1.2 End rhyme score .
