Subj: [kl] Midi Accompaniments are an art form

Here is a version of Victor's tale. The entire orchestra is a midi rendition of the score. Each note was entered on a computer keyboard for pitch and rhythm, then the other "factors" were added volume, release and other stuff. This is such a pain staking process for the person who did this for me. It takes a long time to complete each project . I have been sent a new version of the orchestra tracks which were done using LA scoring strings, which sound even better than this version. I will be re-recording the clarinet with my new Backun clarinet when I get back from NAMM.
Here is the thing I think is important to remember: We are on a technological continuum, music is being made with all kinds of technology. There are people who will create great music with the latest technology and there are people who will create great music with antique reproductions of original instruments. People will also generate complete crap with both also.

Victor's Tale : Tom Puwalski, Leblanc by Backun Symphonie Bb Clarinet, Vandoren M30 mouthpiece, legere signature 3.5. Shure 300 ribbon mic, Apogee ensemble audio converter, apple Imac, Logic. the orchestra is various different sound libraries. Enjoy
