I'm Deaf/hh, my wife is d/Deaf, I hold a doctorate in Deaf Education / Deaf Studies. I've been teaching American Sign Language for over 20 years and I am passionate about it. Signing is a useful skill that can open up for you a new world of relationships and understanding. I'm glad you are here! You can learn ASL! You've picked a great topic to be studying. Students shouldn't have to pay outrageous amounts of money just to learn sign language. This cartoon (adapted with permission from the artist) sums up my philosophy regarding curriculum. Another very real and important part of the Lifeprint ASL curriculum project is that of being able to use the "magic" of the internet to provide a high quality sign language curriculum to those who need it the most but are often least able to afford it. Thus, going through the lessons sequentially starting with lesson 1 allows you to reach communicative competence in sign language very quickly-and it is based on second language acquisition research (mixed with a couple decades of real world ASL teaching experience). Then I took the concepts that appeared the most frequently and translated those concepts into their equivalent ASL counterparts and included them in the lessons moving from most frequently used to less frequently used. I compiled lists of concepts from concordance research based on a language database (corpus) of hundreds of thousands of language samples.

The main series of lessons in the ASL University Curriculum are based on research I did into what are the most common concepts used in everyday communication. If you actually have time to read this email can you answer a question.We need a bigger list of signs, would you recommend me going through the lessons or are you working on a "more signs" page of maybe 100 to 200 of the most commonly used signs?. " and pull up the bookmark of your web page. We constantly go through the "What's the sign for. We have a vocabulary of 124 signs (most of what are on the 100 signs page). As a matter of fact I do the exact opposite and convert audio to midi for a safety copy of all my projects.I have a perfectly healthy 2 year old that refuses to talk.
I have never needed to bounce midi to audio. There’s always going to be better VST instruments to use. Midi is the safest way to save projects as it has proven to be long lived and future proof. Example if I use Ample or SI bass they seem best at 100 to no more than 110.
I find it's important to find the right velocity.

Example a piano will sound harsh at full velocity. With midi data I do pay attention to velocities as each VST might respond differently. There's no point in this as when you end up replacing the Instrument all will change anyhow. I avoid using midi tracks to adjust level. This is also where I will use automation. I then use the instrument track ( this is an audio track) to fine tune using the fader. I set that so the loudest output is showing between -14db to -8db on the meter. I have never used the instrument channel gain on a VST. The better quality VST instruments are louder because they use samples that are optimized. It’s common knowledge that loud always sounds better but quiet is just quiet and there definitely should not be distorted sound as you reduce level. Turning down gain or level has never changed the quality of the sound in my 60 years of audio.
