Sorry my notation skills have dwindled (been a long time; I used to write pages and pages). I scribbled it out quick and took a phone pic, so not all neat and tidy. This is how I hear it on youtube version of same album .. Not sure why this image doesn't display like normal.
Hope it's close for you.
Chords would be Bm - Am/E - F#6/C#(no 3rd)

Try voicing the described chords with it. I notated the horns/bass. I think the chords describe what else is going on elsewhere. I didn't notate the '6' in the last chord, as I'm not sure which instrument is playing it, but in the section I hear (it repeats with slight variations) I *think* the keys may be implying it.

EDIT: nope, nothing in main or trash folders. I'll send you my good email address.
And it's lucky I saw my name in the other reply - I NEVER look in this forum; don't use PT. With the same query in several forums, I don't know how you make sense of the conversation...

thanks Matt! I have not tried all the notes yet, but interestingly, i listened to the original at half speed and came up with the same C# F# you did at the end. That was the missing part! If the other notes line up, Ill let you know. Then please send me an invoice! Bernie
Hi Rharv - I received a response from Matt and though I have not gone through the notes thoroughly it looks like he found it. Interestingly, I listened to the original at half speed and the notes just jumped out at me. I came up with b/g, c/a, and c#/f#. It was the c#/f# that sealed the deal. I'll keep you posted! Bernie
The most important aspect of the last two notes is the D Natural in the bass. That will make some nice tension with the C# in the trombone (and I think the sax).

Comparing the 2, Matt and I are a lot alike on the top 2 staffs of his PDF. The first triplet we differ on a couple notes but otherwise pretty similar.
His bottom staff (3rd) looks 1/2 step off from mine for not just the last note but all notes. I'll have to listen again just for my sake.
So Bernier, are you good yet?

I took a little liberty with the sax line at the beginning. There are some ghost notes played there - could be anything. The bass line I tried works when played back, but I'm working with a horrible YouTube audio, so who knows? Bass is always nebulous, pitch-wise. But I think my parts work.
This one is a bit more straightforward, plus the ninth in the sax on the last two notes. This is closer to how I might have written it. http://mattfinley.com/promos/Chicago2.pdf

By the way, on New Years' Day, CNN did a pretty good 2-hour documentary on Chicago. Highlighted the good years, the not so good years, and the longevity of the band.

So where are you with this project? I gave you the notes. You said your song still doesn't sound right, so please post the file from RealBand and we'll see why. Horn voicing is very different from just a keyboard playing the same notes.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
