This is my first post of 2020. I was going through the different settings of the new 2020 BIAB and found this in the Style Picker. The demo song sounded really nice so I just quickly put some chords in main window and let it go. Really liked the backtrack so I flipped it over to Reaper and blended two different guitar tracks together.

The Harp

Title: The Harp
File:Harp.SGU
Key=C , Tempo 75, Length (m:s)=3:37
32 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 32. Repeat x2 choruses

Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0,
Style is _RAMPART.STY (Rampart Celtic Harp Serenade)

RealTracks in style: ~2474:Bass, Acoustic, Held Ev 085
RealTracks in style: 2773:Harp, Rhythm Celtic16ths Ev16 075
The drums were standard drum kit.

Scott, this is pure magic. Beautifully played and the harp just give it that amazing sound. Pure bliss from start to finish, and the guitars coming in around the 3 min mark is exquisite

A nice soothing and relaxing instrumental. Nice tone and lyrical playing.

Very nice indeed.

Sounds good, Scott! I especially like the slide.

Beautiful looking 335 BTW!

Hello Scott,

I didn't think you were such a romantic, doing songs with a harp.
I was thinking of doing such a thing, but now you are ahead of me!
It is a very nice, sweet, somewhat dreamy song. I like that, although it's instrumental...
I was wondering what was on your mind making this melody?

Cool! There are some interesting melodic choices there that give it more edge than a typical new-agey sound tune. smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

A beautiful, mesmerizing piece. Your guitar floats nicely with the harp playing.

Scott,

Nice. Guitar sounds good. The backing track make a nice landscape for it. The addition of the slide was nice.

I am a sucker for a harp, too, this was like catnip for me. Your playing fit well and gave it a nice dimension sonically. Good work!

Scott - thaht's lovely.
sweet & precise except for that little spot at 0.41 where the two guitars don't seem to like each other.
Well done playing & blending the guitars. The delay is nice too.


Cheers

Hi Scott ...

Well, this is a little something different from you ... and a real pleasant listen! The music just seems to float, surrounding our ears with delicate wafting. love the sound of your guitar. Super playing!!!

I played a Cherry red ES-335 for many years ... traded it for an ES-175. Now play a Fender Tele and a Stromberg Monterey. Again. really, really nice song!

Best to you ...

Alan

The harp and other backing is very nice but
the centerpiece of this is your sublime melodic
playing.

You make excellent use of those Gibsons.

Superb!!!
