Hi, this is a extended version of my instrumental piece Spanish Victoria , a fusion/flamenco style song.

I posted Spanish Victoria original version first back in October 2009, recorded only with RealDrums and MIDI instruments with BiaB 2009. Now I did a remake of the song using RealTRacks with Biab 2011, RealBand and a third party DAW.

Changes in this version :

RealTRacks added:
- Sax, Alto, Soloist SmoothJazzCool Sw16 100 #1056 Eric Marienthal
- Sax, Tenor, Soloist Jazz Ballad 060 # 750 P.J.Perry


- Guitars: I recorded a electro acoustical guitar, added to the current electric from first version.
- Added arabian and Indian percussion.
- Changes in some virtual instruments like MIDI bass BiaB old track, now with Scarbee awesome Jay bass.
- New editions including song form and structure enhances and extensions.
- New mixing, of course.

For details about the rest on how song was made, please refer to old post here:
Spanish Victoria original version


I hope you enjoy this extended new version, I wanted to showcase BiaB 2011 and RT huge potential.

Cheers -

Carlos

Wonderful, Carlos. I love your lyrical playing. The instrumentation, arrangement, mixing - all superb. I wanted to take a little bit off the chorus effect on the lead guitar, what do you think? That's a minor, almost churlish, point considering the serious accomplishment on display here. Well done and thank you for sharing this.

Excellent! The first version was excellent, but the percussion really adds to the mix!

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

I just had a flashback to my days of spinning early Al DiMeola records on my turntable. That was really wonderful Carlos. Excellent. Thanks.

I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"
