Has anyone made a Beatles style by chance? I tried the British Invasion style, but it's not quite the same vibe as the Beatles.Just wondering by chance. I guess I could make one myself if I can figure out how to. Thanks Leonard



The main problem here Leonard is that the mop-tops have so many different styles in their songs. The midi site mention in this thread is a good start but it does not necessary translate directly into a file suitable for the ‘Fab Four’ sample library. Here are some other suggestions people might like to follow up.

Here is an example using BIAB style ‘BALADE Ctry Ballad w/el guitar (85RS)’ that has the right piano tonal tempo for a well-known mop-top number. Add the BIAB blues guitar solo and you get the following short clip:

‘Fab Four’ as a sample library requires a little bit of knowledge how to use it in a DAW (you have to enter the midi notes - the midi site indicated would help to a certain extent with this). But BIAB can also be used as a skeleton backing – ( for example ‘_BALADR Rock Ballad w/el. Guitar (65RS)’ at 71 tempo). By using that and the ‘Fab Four’ sample libraries correct GH’s guitar, PM’s bass guitar, organ, an orchestral string library samples in addition to the ‘The Beatles Complete Score’ book published by Hal Leonard for note guidance you can end up with this (Something ! that would probably pass muster with George Martin):
