Hi Steve,

Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like my song. How does the conflict (or mismatch) between the melody and the solos affect the song? Is it positive or negative? These two were my biggest concern.

I once heard from my friend in Dallas that Texas is very beautiful with carpet of blue flowers in spring. About 20 years have passed since then.

In Tokyo, it was 68 degrees yesterday (Saturday). It will be around 74 degrees tomorrow, so it will be as if we were in the middle of May.

Hiroshi, I come back on some points :

- The Notes that seems odd to me (maybe just me), they are here in the timing : 0:36, 1:03, 2:20, 3:09.
- When I say the brass could be louder, of course it is when you don't play your melody, as intro for example.
- About the Icelander remark : I think he wanted to say that we can generate a solo with an instrument on a choice of bars by the feature "Special", then this solo remains and we can generate an other one with a different instrument on an other choice of bars, and so on... I didn't know that but I just tried it and it works, good to know, thanks Icelander ! Of course It doesn't change my opinion that the solos must be reworked in a daw.
- At last, about the english, please don't take mine as model, it is not my language laugh

Hi Pascal,

Thank you again for your very kind comment. I really appreciate your taking time for my song and explaining your thoughts to me patiently.

I am sorry. I knew now that I completely misunderstood your point. You wanted to say that it gave you odd feeling that I used semitones at these places. I think that makes sense. I misunderstood that you pointed out some out-of-tune notes just like an untuned piano makes. Am I right this time? Because it was my intention that I used semitones there though I know there was some inconsistency, I myself did not think they were out of tone.

I misunderstood your point here again. Because, as Sergio kindly pointed out in his comment, I felt the volume level of sax was a bit too low not only at intro but also for all of the non-solo parts. I corrected this in the remix version. Please check it with that version.

Frankly it iwas impossible for to infer that message from his remark.
I understood he wanted to point out what I wrote in my post was wrong and I should study BIAB features much more. He is absolutely right.

Anyway, my understanding was as follows. The medley feature is flexible enough. We can assign any solo of any instrument to any bar not only serially but also concurrently and can do much more. My point was it would require some sort of design work beforehand to do so, defining which soloist part of which instrument should be assigned to which bars and things like that. To make the design, it would be easier to generete every full soloist part of every instrument beforehand and make cut-and-try to decide the assignment.

Possibly I am wrong here again,because I have not used it. Next time I want to use multiple soloists in a song, I will try to use the medley feature.

Thank you again,
