Hi Ray ...

Country fiddle tracks almost always have a somewhat "crusty" edge to them. I could have selected from the "violin" tracks - vs "fiddle" tracks, but this particular track gave me the melodic feel I was looking for. So, I agree, that edge gives it a bit of character.

Many thanks!

Alan

Hi James ...

You are always so kind to my posts! The feeling it gave you is exactly what I was attempting to elicit. You have no idea how much pleasure your description of the piece gave me. The pleasure of having the intent of one's efforts validated is most satisfying. Thank you so much.

Alan

If I had one nit, it's at the one minute mark and 3:08 mark on the stops. I find in BIAB for whatever reason the guitars sound a bit louder and harsher on the stop . . . like they strum that one note extra hard. So my suggestion would be to lower the sound on those guitars just a tad to soften the stop . . . if that makes sense. Real minor and most likely a subjective nit, but offering for what it's worth. Excellent work on this!

All my best,

Deej




Hi Deej ...

It's always a pleasure to hear from you, in addition to hearing the great music you post. And yes, I agree about the excessive loudness of some of the RTs tracks when you give them a "three-dot stop". I brought them down quite a bit, both on the chord input sheet and in Audacity. As soon as I get a little extra time, I'll go back and address that again.

The addition of the brushes was a last-minute decision. Glad I went with it! Abd glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks!

Alan

Beautiful melody and mood in general.
I'm usually not a fan of brushes, but here they work perfectly. Good choice.

Sublime says it all for us.

You are a master of complete BiaB productions.

Outstanding in so many ways.

PS Bud, as a bass player, feels that RT upright tracks, as with about any studio bass recordings typically need specific eq settings per song to sit in the mix nicely. The jazz upright tracks with more playing up the neck tend to "cut" a little better, IMHO, but as mentioned some manipulation will allow about any of the bass RT's (electric or acoustic) to sit in. FWIW, YMMV and grains of salt smile
