Here's my rendition of the classic song standard BLUE MOON by the incomparable Rodgers and Hart. http://macidol.com/song/25409Alto sax 457 Tenor sax 415 Trumpet 463 Trombone 460 Jazz brush/sticks Bass 397 I am playing the Steinway that ships with LogicExpress. The horns were loaded in improvising from beginning to end. I then listened to everything and proceeded to pick and choose what I wanted when and where. Lots of fun considering the level of chance and serendipity. Technical point: Horn parts come from set 15 which suggest a tempo of 140. My track is at 100 - so, yes, there is some degradation of the audio quality stretching down 40 beats per minute. No doubt, if I wish to continue recording at 100 bpm I will want to invest in the ballad sets which feature tempos centered at 85 bpm. Let me know of any other concerns. Thanks for listening. Greetings from San Francisco. George

Other than not having the 85 bpm horns I have no concerns, only accolades.
Nice work George . . . smooth indeed.

Hello George,
This sounds great brother. You did a fantastic production with the Real Tracks in this song.
I loved the horns too !!!

Great job George!
>> Technical point: Horn parts come from set 15 which suggest a tempo of 140. My track is at 100 - so, yes, there is some degradation of the audio quality stretching down 40 beats per minute. No doubt, if I wish to continue recording at 100 bpm I will want to invest in the ballad sets which feature tempos centered at 85 bpm.
One additional point on this. Instead of slowing down the 140 solos to 100, an alternative would be to generate a double time Sax solo (speed up the 140 solos to 200, and use that over your 100 tempo song.
That's easy to do in BB 2010 for Windows (and upcoming BB2010 for Mac) , but can also be done in 2009 as follows:
1. [menu] Edit-Expand the song
2. Set the tempo to double the desired end tempo. In your case, you want 100, so you set it to 200.
Now generate the RealTracks solos, and import them into Logic. The solos will all be double-time so they'll be playing 16th notes instead of 8th notes. Its a good way of leveraging the RealTracks that you already have.
Have Fun!

George,
Very interesting rendition of that song. I truly enjoyed it. I think you need to bite the bullet and invest in the entire Real Tracks collection, since it will only inspire you to great recordings.
I really enjoyed that, and am looking forward to hearing more renditions from The Great American songbook.
