Doing a modulation for the last chorus. I want to create a one or two bar fill (build-up) into that Chorus.

Are there fills, per se, for either Real Tracks or MIDI that can be specifically used?

I actually pulls these from BiaB and put into my DAW.

Regards,
Lance

What you have done in a DAW is a good method, but in BIAB, you could mute all but the drums by using F5 bar settings. A part marker will cause a drum fill. Different effects are in different styles, but try both an A (blue) sub style part marker and a B (green) to see what sounds best. Sometimes I will put a part marker in both measures of a two-bar fill.

Don't forget to use F5 to turn on the instruments again at the next measure after the fill (un-mute the rest of the tracks).

Thank you Matt. I will give that a try this evening.

Listened to your CD sampler and loved it.

Trumpet player here as well just not even on the same planet though. Part of my years gone by.

Best Regards,
Lance

Lance, yes, with social security now a regular thing, I wonder sometimes why I keep playing one of the most physical of instruments. Everywhere I play, people come up to me and say they USED to play trumpet. What do they know that I don't?

Thanks for the kind words about my music! BIAB gave me a tremendous boost as a composer and arranger.

Piano is my primary instrument and love. So, once high school ended I choose not to play the trumpet in college.

Still, the sound of a brass ensemble is awesome and I do miss playing.

Keep up your playing so the rest of us can still live vicariously through your efforts.

I also agree that BiaB opens one's ability to be a better composer and arranger.

Regards,
Lance
