Five to Go
Rharv showed me how to make a 5/4 song out of a 4/4 song in PGMusic's RealBand. I was able to take the 5/4 time signature into my DAW as 5/4! This is great news for me. This is my first attempt at that process. BiaB style - Sirus - Sirus - Smooth Jazz I deleted the drums and replaced them with a progressive GrooveMonkee 5/4 MIDI drum loops. Drums - Session Drums - FX - Maserati drums. Strings - Kontakt - Artic Strings - preset slow octave Guitar - modified to better fit the time signature - Synthmaster - preset smooth as ice Piano - modified to better fit the time signature - Keyzone Basic EP I am playing: 1-Fretless bass - Amplitube -SVX - pop chorus - FX - Maserati B72 mono, Presonus comp 2-guitar - amplitube = preset Jazz amp 120 - FX Waves H-comp 3-glockenspiel- FX Waves H-comp
Today I bought a doughnut without the sprinkles. Diets are hard!

Mario, I can only count to 4, so this is beyond me...  But it all sounds good. Not my genre, but I can appreciate music well done. (I've never understood why some folks won't even bother with stuff outside their interests  . Music is music...) That glockenspiel is cool! Good mix. fj

I agree with floyd jane - the glockenspiel is VERY cool! Also: you really are, as I wrote on SoundCloud, one of the most accomplished musicians on here. I don't know how you do it - the command and control you have over harmony and harmonic progressions is just something else, and it all works together to make incredible music - which is what matters to me, at the end of the day. Hats off, sir.

Mario,
I`ve got a foot tapping out of time with my head nodding... so maybe I got the beat?
Nice jazzy guitar and that glockenspiel is quite tingling and trippy.
Very creative!

Thanx Robert for these comments. I had a rhythm guitarist once who could keep time with his guitar but not with his foot. That used to drive me nuts.
