I got an email from Indiginus about their new "Blue Street Brass". You need the full version of Kontakt to use it (not the Kontakt Player). I think I will be getting this, and just wanted to share in case others are as well...

Introducing Blue Street Brass!

Dear Indiginus customer,

We proudly introduce Blue Street Brass, a collection of authentic late 19th century and early 20th century instruments, including trumpets, cornets, flugel horn, and some unique low brass instruments. The emphasis is on singing sustained notes, and would sound great for big band, Broadway, or re-creating the sound of an 1890s brass ensemble.

For Kontakt 5.5.2+ Full version.
The introductory price is $59. The regular price will be $79.

I'll be ordering this weekend. I thought for the price point ($59 introductory offer, going up to $79 at some point), it was pretty nice, especially since brass is usually so difficult to get decent sounds for.

Actually listening to it again makes me want to score a noir/Mickey Spillane film or 50's style The Naked City

Pan above sweeping into the mouth of the alley:


"Joey just couldn't catch a break, now caught by a loan shark collector in a 'dark and stormy night' coffin of an alley way, he was about to find out bad his story really was. Joey's story is just another in The Naked City" cue muted trumpet (ala Chet Baker)

Google tells me that Chet Baker never used a mute. wink

Apparently, what teeth Chet didn't directly lose to heroin were removed in an altercation with his drug dealer. He re-learned how to play the trumpet (with dentures) after deciding working at the gas station didn't pay the bills.

Thus the "airy" Chet Baker sound was born.

Or, so I read yesterday, when I happened to be looking for information on the Chet Baker "sound". Prior to that, I didn't even know he played the trumpet on Shipbuilding.

Back to the topic at hand - it's too bad I don't have the full version of Kontakt. The growl on the plunger mute is particularly cool.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

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."
