None of them became PRO, except voice, but from the begining: guitar, djembé, piano, didgeridoo, recorder. And a bit of 🌞mbira.

None. But I like very much FL Studio and playing VST instruments with my keyboard.

First and foremost, I can't read sheet music. Problem: most of the songs I ever want to play are written in Western notation system.
The way I've been doing it, is painstakingly transcribing the songs into letter notes by ear. This is getting tedious. And for that reason, I'm learning to read proper music notes. I can translate simple sheet music in my head s-l-o-w-l-y. My brain is still wired to the letter notation system. But one step at a time, yeah?  ...

Footnote:
The most common music notation system in Indonesia is the chipher notation, where you assign Arabic numerals to represent the notes. I could never make sense of it. Perhaps that's why I didn't bother to learn a musical instrument, until recently. Letter notes are just much more sensible to me. ▲ Collapse

Can you convert them? It must be a way. In FL Studio you can set the notes to English, Germanic and solfege, which is used in my country.
Anyway, don't bother with notes, just play for your own satisfaction, follow your intuition. After all, all musicians first played than started to write the notes, just like the languages, the man first was talking, than he started to write letters and words.

From musical notes to letters? That's what I've been doing in my head as a learning process. And reading directly from the sheet music would make things less tedious, no?

Sure, the ornamentation is up to my taste. But without a written score, I wouldn't know what notes to play since the first place. And I don't trust my memory to recite the tunes.

Yes.

And don't be just a performer, be a compositor too. Play your own music, than write what you played. That's all I am saying.
In FL studio there is a tracker, and you just playing by your ear, and the tracker tracks the notes.

It's not all that bad, Gjorgji. Thanks to the “Every Good Boy Deserves Food” and “FACE” mantras. I just need to speed up my thought process.
