The following file was a direct recording into Power Tracks Pro. It is a result of feedback recieved from the Windcontroller
forum on the Zoom H2 recording which is the very next file. This is an effort to get the section sounds to be more
like a real acoustic horn section. I tried to follow as many suggestions as I could. Pitch bend has been modified on
each patch within each layer. The patches were all eq'd separately and played in Stereo with different internal synth effects.
Volume levels were changed as well as some of the instrument patches.
New patches 5-10-08
Driving Up has my new Alto Sax in the first solo, then on Synthophone are Real Flute , and EWI solos. 5-2-08
Driving Up
Home Town is a collaborative effort
with Mick Emery. The song started life from a royalty free partial midi file from www.pdinfo.com. The track was purchased on CD from their Midi Track Series. Mick
provided the special effects, the horn section, and the 1st and last solos. I did the middle solo, the song production,
and the final mix. Yes

Rain Play
Rain Play is another guitar patch more in the Pat Methany mode. The chords and and background are
from the Melodist feature in Band-in-a Box. The BIAB file was converted to a midi file ,and edited in Cakewalk
Sonar. The section instruments were from the Roland XV-2020 synth module. The guitar patch from Patchman's "Pat"
was added to the wave mix in Sonar.
What4
The backing track to What4 was created in Band-in-a-Box 2004 useing the melodist feature.
Once the track was finished it was rendered to a wave file with the Roland VSC Virtual Sound Card. It was then recorded
into stereo tracks on a Fostex MR-8 digital recorder. The Getz Turbo VL patch was used throughout the tune, and was recorded
in two steps not including the backing track.
Blues 1
Blues1 offers a chance to showcase a few different instruments from the Turbo VL. There is Blues Harrmonica, Muted Trumpet,
Brecker Tenor, and a blend of voices for the horn section.
Band In A Box (BIAB) is a music program that gives musician's and hobbiest players the ability of creating thier own
backing tracks. I found it very useful for learning tunes as well as printing out parts in notation. It is also a great practice
tool.
The best part is that it is great fun. See the links section and check out PG Music, Notes Norton, and the Web Ring link
on my home page for the Yahoo BIAB Group.
