      Working on Love Generation and there’s quite a bit of whistling in it. I wasn’t to sure for the quicker whistling parts, should I leave a whole place for them to whistle (talkie section), or chart each one seperatly (each one talkie)?

        You might have to experiment with it in-game, I suspect you could probably get away with blocking over multiple notes of whistling with the easy^ grading^ talkies.

         

        I wonder if it’s actually possible for the mic to pick up pitched whistling… Hmm…

          If it is , I would expect it to be hard to get it to recognise the pitch

            Depending on the type of whistling. Usually fast-sliding whistles are done on one long talky. If the whistles have more constant pitch (and don’t slide around lots), you label them as “doo” and make them pitched notes.

             

            You can also put whistling on keys if you wish to do so.

              Would doing a mixture of both work? Also here is the song:

               

              The whistling is at 1:17.

                Unrelated: This song was a big “Oh, that song!” for me <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_biggrin.gif” />

                 

                But that whistling can go either way. Either on vocals as pitched notes or on keys. I’d probably put it on keys if I were doing the song, but you can do either (but not both).

                  Has there been a DLC with whistling mapped? Gonna be doing a map of a song with a prominent whistling part and not sure to include it. The “doo” could work but I don’t know if it’s picked up well.

                    “Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay” featured talkies-style whistling. I was kind of bummed. There are a couple others, but I don’t remember ’em specifically.

                      Walk LIke an Egyptian is another example. I tend not to pitchi whistling: it’s more realistic to let people whistle and give them points anyway than to have people not whistle and but actually sing the part (and punish them if they can’t translate whistling to singing).

                        Whistling is generally a lyric event of ^ across all content I’ve seen.

                         

                        I’ve used this for any parts I’ve authored with whistling.

                          Billy Joel’s “The Stranger” sort of does. Harmonix uses the “doo” trick for that one. I’ve tried whistling it before. For the most part the game picks up the right pitch but often it latches onto a harmonic (gotta be careful not to misspell that!) and scoring suffers. Trying not to whistle directly into the microphone helps, but really the pitch detection just isn’t very friendly to whistling, it seems.
