What styles?




Converting the Korg PA80 styles to Band-in-a-Box styles for fun and profit. First disk is done, see: http://www.nortonmusic.com/style18.html

Quote:

Covers or Originals?




Songs for my duo, The Sophisticats are often covers and often our own arrangements of popular songs which can be either similar or radically different from the original

Quote:

Fun or commercial (or somewhere in between!)




Both. I play music for a living, and I love to go to work because it's fun (they don't call it playing music for nothing)

Quote:

What human instruments do you add to your Biab/RB arrangements?




Saxophone, wind synthesizer, guitar, flute, tactile MIDI controller, voice, and sometimes keyboards

Quote:

Do you port your tunes from BIAB into another DAW (eg. Sonar etc) to finish them?

Do you play live with Biab?





I'll answer both because they are related.

I play live using backing tracks that I either made from scratch in a sequencer or exported from BiaB and then finished in a sequencer. See http://www.nortonmusic.com/backing_tracks.html for detailed instructions on how I make them and how I use them on stage.

Quote:

What are you currently working on?




Making backing tracks for a couple of requests that have come in fairly frequently in the past couple of months.
