Mac’s ideas are good ones. I little music theory goes along way in getting the most out of BiaB.

If you’re generating your own backing tracks and are looking for some better sounds than I would recommend Kontakt 3. There are also many different sound modules you can purchase for it. I have it and I think it’s great. I have heard that Reason and Sampletank are also very good but I have had no experience with them.

If you really want to try something new (well maybe something new as I don’t know your background) get a wind controller. The EWI-USB is a lot of fun and can add some realism to horn and string parts.


I'm no longer allowed to go caroling at the psych hospital.
I guess Do You Hear What I Hear was a bad song choice!
