Christian, I liked your track a lot! You have a real knack for finding lovely phrases in the RT solo Library! I especially liked those low register trumpet and trombone phrases. I can't imagine how much time you spent going through all the possibilities to find the ones that sounded so right on! Thanks for sharing a great track!

Thanks Tom,
You're right ! I spend a lot of time looking for best musical phrases for the solos instruments and mix them. Christian

Well done with the selection process: I haven't the patience to render and listen and cut and paste and start again with the solo/melody aspect.


Cheers

Great work on this! The horn phrases are fantastic, and the whole song just flows effortlessly. A top notch mix really wraps it up too. Very easy on the ears, and a delight to listen to. Thanks for sharing smile

Very nice. Cutting and pasting (comping) is THE way to go with RT's and you do it so well!

This sounds very fluid and natural...like a group of musicians who've played together for years.

Enjoyed it!!!

And what a wonderful jazz ballad it is! I think Janice and Bud's comment about it sounding very natural and fluid is exactly what I was thinking but couldn't put in to words.

Thanks for sharing!

Chris,

A wonderful jazz ballad!
The chord progression is very nice.
I agree with Tano Music.
You must have spent a lot of time going through all the possibilities to find the ones that sounded so right on.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Smooth!

That's a whole lot of work to get a song's worth of tune from the RTs, and it paid off nicely!

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