Hello, everybody!
I'd like to share the piece in hope that someone has similar feelings sometimes.
Nostalgia was written for Yamaha PSR many years ago. I decided to buy BIAB to resurrect it. Don't regret it so far.

Drums, Guitar and Bass MIDI parts were generated by ZZBOSSA.STY and edited in Reaper. HH, SD, BD and Shaker are Coyote's. No RealTracks.
Please tell me if there is too much of Bass on your monitoring equipment - I'm mixing with headphones (neighbors, you know...). smile

Thank you for listening,
Slava

Hello Slava,
Nice sax, the neighbours must like this surely ☺☺☺
It is a nice listen indeed. Lovely soft jazz. To my amateur opinion the bass is just wright.
Thanks for sharing

Beautiful. Enjoyed this. I thought the mix was done quite well for my ears at least.

I also evolved from the Yamaha PSR for my backing tracks to BIAB and have not regretted or missed the Yamaha at all.

Slava,

Welcome to the forum.

A very nice piece. Excellent mix.

Are you playing the sax? Regardless, it is terrific...

Very enjoyable listen.

Hi Slava,

What a beautiful, mellow sound. Such a nice clean production and great mix.
I guess some of that is due to not having Realtracks?
Bass sounded great to me (although I should point out that I am a bit deaf in one ear at the moment smile.
Congrats with the Sax playing too!

Overall: Loved it. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Slava,

welcome to the forum. Great first post.
Couldn't tell your sax from a real one.
Especially like the interaction between sax and vibraphone.
Enjoyable listen.

Hi Slava, great sound and production. Yes the products from Samplemodeling people are amongst the best and realistic out there IMHO. One of these days I'll get some.

Keep them coming!
