Hello there, this is a piece mainly to showcase a Chapman trumpet vst by Embertone. I had a hard time finding a suitable midi solo. I think this one did the job. I know there are a few trumpet and wind controller players out there that might like this instrument, only catch is that has to be used with a Kontakt full version player.

Style is _JAZFSKB.STY (Fast Jazz Swing Poll Winners)

RealTracks in style: ~~443:Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Sw 140
RealTracks in style: ~~2289:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm JazzSwingKenny Sw 140
RealTracks in song: 2593:Horn Section, Background CroonerBigBand9-Part Sw 110
RealDrums [in style:JazzSwingLewis^04-a:Brushes Swirl, Busy Snare , b:Ride and Hihat

We thought it did the job also. Excellent.

I'm clueless regarding midi other than the occasional use of a MST but am in awe of what talent and midi can produce.

And a great mix to showcase it all in.

Most enjoyable!

The Embertone is good, but the background crooner horns are so cherry. I use them a lot.

Mike,

Great midi use!
The Embertone is very vivid.
It's full of the essence of modern jazz.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Mike,

I liked your song a lot - lovely feel.

Also liked the Trumpet at the start of the song.

However I thought the Trombone (was it a Trombone?) in the second half of the song had to much reverb and the reverb was also too long.

Otherwise - very enjoyable and look forward to hearing more of your songs.

Best Regards
Nigel

I'd always heard the Chapman Trumpet in a slower, more sedate context. So it was cool to hear it in a jazzy context.

BiaB has some create jazz tracks, and you make them shine in this song.

Cool listen! laugh
