This theatre I do tracks for needed a really bad highschool band playing a christmas song. Check out this track I made on the PA1XPRO. Note the Glock player isn't playing the right song. I used the trumpet as the tuba because it sounded more "farty" and when the sampled vibrato kicked in in that low register it sounds like the player is going flat.

Let me know what you think

It's destined to be a classic. Ok to use it as break music at Christmas parties? I can see their faces now. Or maybe, pretend to be playing it and then point to the tip jar that says: Tips for Music Lessons.

That was a really really really bad high screwal band. Missing accidentals, and those percussionists, horrific! Even a correct trumpet missed partial. Lol.

Sean, I love how you took music sequencing & production in the OPPOSITE direction. While most people use sequencer features to correct mistakes , you used it to take it in the OTHER direction. Even pitch correction & sequencer's quantize function could'nt fix THAT performance. Sean, good job. - Scott

That was great!!!

Makes me want to throw away my trombone. Although it is handy for parking in handicap zones when I leave it on the dash of my vehicle.

Sean,

I'm sure you must have had to work a bit harder on that piece to make it that bad. Good playing/music couldn't take as much time as that must have taken. Great Job!!

It's funny I was in play where I was suppose to do a bad christmas carol on the trumpet... This remided me of that..As soon as I hit the stage I was ten times worse than your tune and I was trying...
thanks for the memory..

I don't know if this is good or not, but the whole thing took me 20 minutes. I used the choral voicings from a carol book to guide me and just played the voicings on different instruments using the joystick to slightly play under or over pitch. It was actually very easy to record because I didn't need to worry about playing exactly in time with the other parts. The only real thing I tweaked was the timing of the bell player playing "dashing through the snow" so it fell in a crack where you could notice it which I thought was funny.

I'm glad you all enjoy it. I hope Korg doesn't sue me for making this machine sound so bad.
