Cool 50s
I'm trying to emulate the 1950s cool jazz era. I'll let you be the judge if I did or didn't accomplish it. BiaB Style - Jazzy1 - Cool Jazz Soundtrack Tempo = 60BPM I deleted the bass and the drums Piano - EZ Keys - upright - preset = saloon Guitar - Kontakt - Jazz guitar Drums - GrooveMonkee MIDI drum loops - SSD5 drums - preset Jazzy Jerry Me - Wind controller - Swam - muted trumpet Fretless bass FX = a tad of Raum reverb on the trumpet.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

NICE!! Great sounds, Mario. You got that bass sounding pretty close to an acoustic, and it sounds so good. The muted trumpet reminds me of Miles --from the 60s forward. In the 50s he was more like Dizzy and Bird with all the chromatic notes you could fit in one measure. This could definitely be heard coming out of a bar on 52nd Street in the 50s. You've captured the smoky. we-got-plenty-of-time feel so well.

That was cool and different... great muted trumpet sound and some of the articulations were spot on.

I thought that the cool jazz era prominent era was the mid 50s to the early 60s. Most associate the 60's with rock so I said the 50's.

As bluage said, sounds like slow blues to me. Not a complaint, though - mute trumpet is always cool. I may have to get the SWAM brass at some point. I don't need them, but they sound like fun to play.

Hi Mario, I'm not a huge jazz fan, but I like the 50's, 60's period, and I think you captured that vibe. Trumpet sounds like Miles, amazing that you did that via a wind controller! Bass is excellent! Good one, enjoyed.

Is there anything you CANNOT do? Blooming so and so - impressive. The trumpet is exquisite (that high note at the end ... how did you do that?) - that bass makes me smile. This is SO cool and laid back - and so, so well done ... boy, I needed this today. Thank you!!! and congrats :-)

Bluage and David, I was concentrating on the sound of the era but the chord progression was indeed a blues progression. Good catch!
Andi, Torrey, and Dave, thanx so much for listening and commenting on my bass playing. I appreciate that very much.
Thanx so much Floyd for being cool about this song. I'm slowly beginning to get the hang of the wind controller and its MIDI nuances.
Ray, thanx for noticing the trumpet reverb. I tried a number of setting prior to that one so I guess I made the right choice.
James, I just played that high note.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
