Soulfully Slow A slow song that hopefully I played soulfully. This is really me just having some fun. BiaB style - Slow Soul - Smooth Jazz - Soulful Tempo - 65 BPM I deleted the strings, guitar, and bass Piano - Keyzone Classic - preset - Basic EP The piano lead is from EZKeys 2 Drums - Steven Slate's SSD 5 - preset - Funk 2 Percussion - Various Kontakt instruments Me- my Jay Turser jazz box My Squire P-Bass And via my wind controller the Swam Tenor Sax - preset - Sax 2 - warm As always all comments are welcomed.

Mario...you remain "midi-master Mario" with this very peaceful and relaxing piece...my only thought is on the mix where I would bring the percussion down a smidge...to me it's dominating a bit and steals something from the melody and other instruments...but that's a minor nit in a real nice song!

Nice!
That sax sounds great! So alive.
Cool idea to get EZKeys to do the piano solo.
The drums are good. Best ride cymbal I've heard in some time...
Good mix.

Bob Thanx so much Bob. Mario...you remain "midi-master Mario" with this very peaceful and relaxing piece...my only thought is on the mix where I would bring the percussion down a smidge...to me it's dominating a bit and steals something from the melody and other instruments...but that's a minor nit in a real nice song! Thanx Dan, but I'm not sure about that "MIDI-Master" comment. I thought the percussion was OK but I will have another look at it. Thanx for bringing that up.

Sounds great, Mario! Love the sax work especially. Nice tone on the guitar too, are you using a sim?

I ran my Jay Turser jazz box a clean amp setting, added FX Blue-Cat ReGuitar set at wide jazz pickup and then I EQed it. Stomp board, https://www.kvraudio.com/product/stomp-board-by-bbe-sound, at $19 USD is a no-brainer IMHO.

A sax has always warm and friendly sound, you bring that sound soulfully across the Atlantic, very skillfully played. The pretty melancholic melody evokes memories, like about summer that is over again. And that piano part is surprising, but beautiful variation to the theme. I always enjoy diving into another universe through your music.

Mario,
I think I've told you a million times already, but I'm always amazed at what you do with that wind thing.
LOVE the saxophone!

Janne Thanx Janne. I am trying to add more realism to my VSTi stuff. EZKeys 2 is a fantastic tool and works perfectly with BiaB. Mario,

LOVE the saxophone! Thanx so much. I am still trying to learn that wind thing. It does add a touch of realism to VSTi horn parts.

As usual, exactly as described on the tin.
That sax has a nice buzz on the lower notes.
Good mix, too!

Excellent listen. Very cool phrasing. Loved the back and forth between the sax and the guitar. Two very cool textures. Well done
