I think this live version is the best version. The whole band are right 'on it' and Marcus is in all his glory.

Maybe it's from the DAW end... I presume you have looked into preferences/midi? If not, have a look at the video below. The section that may be of interest to you starts at 0:42 seconds:

Of course, you are 100% right and I do agree...although, 'alleged', is pushing it a bit.

Velocity X-Fade as well, which is also great for rolls, crescendos and decrescendos etc. The VSL Syncron Player is excellent for this via Mod Wheel or whatever Midi controller that yoy want to use. X-Fade is very useful in real time playing as well, although, of course you can program or draw in the Midi data after. Getting pretty authentic results/mock-ups out of Virtual Instruments these days has never been easier....or cheaper!! There are some great deals around with constant sales on if you keep your eyes open (and a few very decent freebies as well).

Yes, there are a few Software Virtual Drummers that do this. Also these days, look out for libraries that have 'Round-Robin' samples. I've lifted the below from elsewhere, which sums it up nicely. "I doubt that you'll need to read a tutorial. Round-robin is simply a way to let sample developers play back a different sampled version of the same sound each time you hit the same key, so that just like most acoustic instruments each note sounds slightly different for more realism. This feature becomes particularly important with drum libraries to avoid the 'machine gun' effect of rapidly repeating the same (for instance) snare drum sound. By having two, four or eight slightly different snare samples, played back in sequence, you avoid such artificial-sounding effects, since if you keep hitting the same key it will play back (for instance): Sample 1, Sample 2, Sample 3, Sample 4, Sample 1, Sample 2...Sometimes they are random Sample1, Sample 3 etc..."

Yeah, he's great...He does a whole bunch of excellent arrangements on his YouTube channel. I like they way he goes about his voicings. A very talented musician:

👍

Blimey, don't push it. Anticipating beat one is "life in the fast lane" for some, it seems...

If anyone is interested, below is a link to the full score. The studio version with Bass, Guitars (inc solo), Banjo and Vocal charts etc... https://musescore.com/user/28322913/scores/7314548

Yes , it is the same and I can't hear any 9/8 bars. Maybe some are getting confused with the 8th note (quaver) anticipations going on during the eight bar intro (before the two bars).

I haven't a clue, Crusoe. I don't even know who he is...Google was my friend...

Totally agree. 👍

Although a bit pricey, Strezov Sampling release some of the best sample libraries out there. However, from time to time they release some freebies. And as usual with their libraries, they are excellent. The link below has the freebies up for grabs. The top line of Libs displayed will run in the Kontakt free players. The bottom line needs the full version of Kontakt. https://www.strezov-sampling.com/products/17/Freebies.html

If anyone is after a free Convolution Reverb - This offering from 'Wave Arts' is excellent. It comes with a very good selection of IR'S. https://wavearts.com/products/plugins/convology Here is a link for some tutorial videos that are well well worth a watch: https://impulserecord.com/convology-xt-getting-started/ If you want more free IR's to load up, try these two sites: https://samplicity.com/bricasti-m7-impulse-response-files/

Bruce Hornsby concert live in New York (with a Killer Band).

She's still touring and delivering Rock & Roll at 72!! This was from last year...

A great track. The bar of 5/4 that comes at the end of the chorus/B section always makes me smile.... The Bass groove is also pretty 'on it'. It was played by a Bassist called Basil Fearrington (a busy session player back in the day). If you have twenty minutes to spare, have a watch of this interview with him. He has some interesting little anecdotes regarding his career:

Are you copying from the address bar? If so, (for me) it just displays the link on a forum. If you use the (YouTube) copy function it should display the video once pasted into your post. Desktop :

No need to pay. Can you do any magic tricks?

Bad driving isn't unique to a Bass related number plate. In fact, on the Dalvey Custom 'baddrivingometer', I doubt it even registers.

Do you mean like this (below)? If so, Stew, are you part of the Magic Circle? If you are, I will message you the procedure. I can't divulge secrets on a public forum.
