1 hour ago1 hr Cloudburst 9 was one of my 3 attempts at a high energy, big jazz band work I wrote in 2007. I played keys in high school and college jazz band.But could I reproduce a 70s big jazz band like Buddy Rich, Maynard Ferguson, etc in my Cakewalk DAW? I decided to gave it a try. My track in 2007 was ok but the drums lacked sophistication. So I opened up the folder and discovered I had audio file tracks without drums. The instrument wav files sounded amazing still. Which I was surprised. Drums now remixed with variation and punch.The trombone and trumpet leads are from the same synth brass from my Roland keyboard. It sounded very much like a trombone and trumpet, but it's a synth patch. One of my fav sections is the final trombone solo where the rhythm section energy picks up a notch. Also I have a favorite minor chord in the work. Maybe you'll notice it. Music and virtual instruments composed and performed by me, no AI . Not really a jazz genre, more like show tune maybe, and fusion. I know the mix can be much improved, but I'm not going to remake all instruments right now. Maybe later.DAW: Cakewalk Sonar 7(in 2007) and remixed with current Cakewalk SonarAll Instruments: Roland Fantom, with added vsti DSK Brass for the sax sectionEffects - Sunset Live Room, and a touch of spring reverb
