Cool ideas, but i believe we are going back to the same problems as midi notes.

In midi you can have the very best samples of real guitars, but the pitch bends, and slides and other changes are just very difficult to get sounding right at a single note level. If we reduce the RTs to single notes it will still be the same problem, and we will have nothing more than a sampler working. The fact that RT work as they do, is due to the principles of being real live played segments of music.

To take them to the single note level would require being controlled by midi or some other method that just does not work properly.

I hope some day we have a more "customizable" solo program. One idea is to work with other musician's here and share tracks, if you offer things you might get tracks in return.

That or learn to solo. (Wow if only i could) Been workin' on that one for a long time, and still don't got it!



I'm already extremely impressed with the sax solos I've heard using BIAB+RP. Please don't make them better. We sax players need jobs and although they're close to the real thing, they're not quite so because we can use nuances of the human voice -- bend notes, sighing, growling, whispering and other sounds very close to the human voice... ;-)

Seriously speaking, info for all concerned: I know a local sax player who's incredible and has toured the world with name stars. A couple of days ago I saw he posted many of his MP3's from his old CD's on a website and is now selling them fifteen cents -- and for an hour's worth of his songs it's about $1.50 so I guess musicians have to hold our breath until the economy recovers (hopefully before the year 2036). :-O
