Hi friends, my first waltz is under my belt!

This is my sixth production with PG Music software.

All tracks are RealTracks and RealDrums with the exception of my flute and tenor sax. Thanks to Ron Carter, Terry Clark, Kenny Barron, and Mike LeDonne for their amazing playing!

The Basic style was JWALZPS.

The 10-band EQ, and PG Reverb were used on all tracks. I used two outside plugins- EasyQ parametric equalizer and Sanford Delay for the solo sax track.

Other than BIAB/RB, Audacity was used for a dash of post-mix editing (crop, Amplify, bass boost for Soundcloud).

I do have one issue which I've contacted Deryk/Kent about. The piano solos you hear sound better in the SEQ than in the mix. I had to boost volume and run PG Dynamics compression for the render to WAV to try to match the RealBand fidelity. I'm hoping they can find the problem with this RealTrack (1247) so that I can match the beauty of the original RT.

As always, thanks very much for listening and enjoy! If you dig it, please leave a like, and consider following me on SoundCloud. I've also created a Bandcamp page to host uncompressed WAVs https://spontaneousgroovincombustion.bandcamp.com/.


Best, Warren

Excellent tune. The sax was incredible. I have really started to like the jazz genre. I was first introduced to it from a fellow jazz aficionado name Aleck Rand who drops in from time to time. Well done

Thanks so much Scott! I was a latecomer as well. I was a rock and roll and country singer, player, and writer, doing more Blues, Funk, etc. Sure, I played in high school and college stage bands, and even flirted with a fusionish duo during my Nashville days but I was never a die-hard jazz lover. 3 years ago, after laying off the horns for essentially a decade, the Jazz bug bit me very hard. Feeling that I'd said everything I possibly could have wanted to lyrically over the decades, I'm so thrilled to be able to be making purely musical, instrumental statements now. I am absolutely in love with this genre, and have dedicated myself to it through pretty hard work since 2015. It's interesting that for everything there is a time and place and that what's right for one stage of life isn't necessarily right for another. Thanks to all of you for listening!


Best, Warren

Hi Warren,

I, too, love this genre. This is such an easy listen. Everything sits nicely in its place. That sax sure is great - seriously! Jazz waltzes have a special feel about them you don't get from any other genre. Really, really nice! Best to you with your music.

Alan
