Who is this Elvis you speak of? I was thinking, this needed a hip hop groove and a rapper.

It does seem to be "mastered" a little loud in my headphones but I've not had a chance to listen elsewhere. As Herb recommended Joanne, look aft

Style title by Carlo74 @ 15 minutes 18 seconds ago

Below your song title there is the name of the style you chose. I'd like to see only the name of the style since it tells me all I need to know. I am not a programmer I'm a user, I have no interest in the file name. So 'Slow Jazz Ballad w/ Piano & Bass' is a lot more informative (and graphically pleasing as well) than _SLOWBAL.STY.

Thanks David, Deryk, Janne, J&B, Clifton, rayc, HearToLearn, Herb, Deej, Shigeki, dcuny, Noel, LPMan, Joanne and SD for the listen and comments! I appreciate it! To answer your question David, I can’t repost old version of this one because I deleted it. The effects used were just compression, reverb and delay. Hopefully this group hug will please some sad souls worried and post bumping!!! Thanks, T

Re: Annoying "Bang a Gong" in DAW drag and drop by George Nelson @ Today at 02:57 AM

Hi Bunyip, Just a thought...this has happened to me in the past and the culprit was my sound card. It seemed to hold on to the sound from the last time it played the song (it didn't refresh and clear its resources) I can't tell you which sound card as I have a new computer (a desktop, which doesn't exhibit the problem) my old computer was an Acer laptop with its on-board laptop.

Re: Sforzando playback issue in Standalone mode by Teunis @ Today at 02:42 AM

SFZ files comes up every now and then. There are a number of sample player type synths that use them. Sforzando and Dimension Pro are a couple of examples. You first need a number of good samples of the sound you wish to play. You then create an SFZ file in a text editor that tells the sample player what to mod with the samples. Below is a copy of what I wrote before ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I think maybe I should explain a bit better with an example. I wanted to be able to add bit

Re: BIAB/Aria Engine looking in the wrong place ... by hannay @ Today at 01:11 AM

Thanks for thinking to check on that, John. Nope, it's set up with Coyote WT as the default, sforzando kicks in when needed. Fingers crossed, but following Andrew's advice STILL looks like it has sorted the problem out

My New Jazz CD by cooltouch @ Yesterday at 11:33 PM

This is one of three CDs I've just completed. The first one I've mentioned in a previous thread and I've just finished uploading the third one to Soundcloud, so I'll mention it in a separate thread. But on to this one. The CD is called In the Know (copyright Michael McBroom 2018) and, yeah, it's mostly Jazz, but there's other stuff too. A number of the tunes have Latin flavors, like Bossas and Rhumbas. But I've always sort of heaped the Latin sounds in with Jazz anyway, which is why they made i

Re: My Latest Smooth Jazz CD by cooltouch @ Yesterday at 06:51 PM

Okay, I finally figured out how to create an album over at Soundcloud. AND! I also found out how to re-order my tracks. So, when you click on the link in my sig, you should see my latest album and the tunes are now appearing in their proper order -- not that the order really makes much difference. But still, it's nice to see things in agreement.

Re: Swamp by Noel96 @ Yesterday at 06:32 PM

Samuel, "Fantastic!" is what first came to mind and it was closely followed by a whole heap of adjectives of admiration. Great writing, powerful lyrics, excellent arranging, excellent performing, highly polished mix, etc.... you name it, it's there! I really enjoyed this. Regards, Noel

Re: Lurssen mastering console by BlueAttitude @ Yesterday at 06:06 PM

I’ve been using it here ever for quite some time now, it is great for adding just the right bit of polish. The “mastered for iTunes” setting is fantastic, not sure why Ozone hasn’t done that, maybe V9. I’ve used it standalone and got great results, but most of the time I drop it in as the last module in an Ozone 8 session. Not too many other things happening in Ozone, mostly just the stereo imager. But having it within the Ozone session allows me to use the tonal balance control, a

Reaper: Creating a drum machine (this has a heap of potential for getting more from BIAB) by Noel96 @ Yesterday at 04:51 PM

This easy-to-follow video clip by Kenny Gioia shows how to use drum samples in Reaper and drive them by MIDI notes to create rhythm. As I see it, this has two REALLY EXCELLENT uses from BIAB's perspective. ONE BIAB's MIDI-only styles have MIDI drum patterns already created and mapped to MIDI notes. BIAB uses General MIDI percussion mapping. This mapping is defined in the below pdf whose content was obtained from here. General MIDI Keyboard Map for Percussion (pdf) Using this Reaper
