I am from Florida, and one of my most memorable experiences was playing guitar at the back of a group of old-timers at the Suwannee Bluegrass Festival. I love banjo, have one in fact, and look for opportunities to use its unique energy. BB has great banjo performances, and the banjo sounds on my Yamaha keyboard are very realistic also, so my own instrument stays in the attic. They are quite hard to play.
I used a new technique to build the slide part. I printed out the song with all its bars showing on BB, then played through with the vocal on Pro Tools, circling the bars where slide would work. Then when I went into RB, I could highlight those sections and use multi-riff to choose the parts.
