I quite like it.... Just Sanborn with his usual blues licks. Quite laid back for him. Probably in keeping with the vibe from the film(s) and Michael Kamen's scoring. Sanborn's Alto features prominently throughout. Same as Clapton as well.

'Heavyocity' have started to release a free VST Instrument series called, 'Foundations'. The first two Instruments are now available: https://heavyocity.com/product-category/foundations/ Hybrid Piano: https://heavyocity.com/product/foundations-piano/ Staccato Strings: https://heavyocity.com/product/foundations-staccato-strings/ EDIT: I forgot to mention; you get a serial number so the Libraries can be used with the free Kontakt player. π

I did like Dylan's version but this version works for me as well.

Guitars Just Won't Stick to the Recording
lowdown replied to Blaze Esq's topic in General Discussion
Any Bassists on here remember 'Pop Plan' and Dave Tanner's, 'London Orchestrations'? It didn't matter what Function/Corporate Band you were playing in, or depping in, you ended up mostly playing the same tunes, note for note. The only difference between the bands would be what colour shirts or Jackets you would be wearing. -
Guitars Just Won't Stick to the Recording

"However, playing the song live was made difficult by the fact that the whole band would have to tune to the drone pipe. Thus the song, though iconic of the band's early repertoire, was probably played live no more than 30 times[7] The last occasion was in 1976, following an incident where Scott set down the pipe-set at the corner of a stage during a concert at St Albans High School in St Albans, Victoria, Australia and they were destroyed by fans.[2][8] Subsequent (relatively rare) live performances employed a recording of the song's bagpipe track or an extended guitar solo by Angus Young.[3]" π

He has nice subtle tempo movement and lovely, musical phrasing, which all makes for better listening and holding my attention. Usually Bassists tend to just plough through these Cello pieces and they sound like they can't wait to get to the end. Very nice. Thanks for posting. π

He has it all.....

Some nice playing on the collaboration album with Earl Klugh:

It's reasonable for me (no noises, crackles or pops etc). I do have a pretty newish i7 though (two years old). Standalone, playing a five note chord is around 15% (bottom right corner):

Yes, I did notice that. When I restarted the 'puter, that folder ended up in 'Program Data'. But, it seemed to be just some kind of reference folder with a little green arrow in the bottom left hand corner. My 'C' drive hadn't actually reduced (by 2.79 gig). Although, the '.exe' application stayed in 'C' program files , the Library was holed up in my 'G' drive. A very strange carry on, but all working for me. Hopefully, the Grenade you lobbed over to their support folk might unravel something that I've missed and, it really is an easy install. Sounds great though..!!

Unfortunately, there are some vendor download managers and license activation Apps that will only reside on 'C' drives. It's not something that particularly bothers me; mainly because I haven't had a problem with any of them. Of course, that might change if I do.

Yes, the installer app is on the 'C' drive. But, during the install, you can direct the sound library to any location of your choice. Same with the VST files. Even if you have a problem selecting a drive for installation, you can move the content after the install. Do you have questions about your product? You will likely find an answer here: Open the drop down tab in this link.... HOW DO I FREE UP SOME HARD DRIVE SPACE USING THE ASC

Here you go Dad....aaaaannnnnd, yet another Installer. This one is a Hybrid Strings/Synth from Arturia and I must say, very cutting edge. It sounds great: Arturia - Augmented STRINGS Intro

Cheers for the link.

Where is this from, Leonard? My oldest is after another DAW PC and is looking at refurbs. π

Probably a stupid question but, do you have the metronome 'count off' activated? and if so, how many bars of count off before the recording starts? I think in activated mode it's default used to be two bars. There might be some stupid amount of bars of count off and you haven't realised. Like I said, probably a stupid question. EDIT: This chap explains it better.

I'm presuming the OP has looked at the frame rates? if not, try the link below, section 3). More likely it's the video drifting, not the audio. Usually this is down to playback mismatch of frame rates. The DAW (video player) project settings frame rate has to be set to the same frame rate as the video was recorded when playing back in Reaper (or any DAW/audio/video editor). I'm not a Reaper user, but this chap has a decent step-by-step guide writing with videos/films/pictures. https://howtowritefilmmusic.com/how-to-set-up-reaper-daw-for-film-scoring/

One of the best forums out there is this one below. Composing through to DAW's/FX and all things in-between. A lot of software Vendors post about/advertise their products as well, with plenty of user reviews on offer. VI CONTROL: https://vi-control.net/portal/

Funny enough, I stumbled across a live performance with Alfonso Carey a couple of days ago (The Ritchie Family). I believe this was Alfonso as well.

About 20 years ago or so, I walked into a bar in Glasgow to listen to some Jazz and Ewan was on Double Bass. He sounded great, very fluent and on top of it. I was then told he hadn't been playing Upright that long. Excellent musician.
