Recorded a Big Band with 3 people.

Franzman · February 21st, 2012, 02:36 AM

We did a little experiment with our little 3-piece horn section.
We wanted to see if we could record a big band in an afternoon.

One man a section. No preparation time, sight reading galore!

Here's the result! We think it went pretty well (sound-wise atleast, time/feel is perhaps not optimal as this was just an impromptu experiment) so now we're thinking of doing a couple more tunes for real and perhaps pulling an album together.

Please tell me what you think!

That was great, loved the sound and swing it had to it.

Anyone know the trick to getting Soundcloud to work with Firefox?

Very nice job.

The thing about overdubbing yourself is that you can't blame intonation problems on someone else. :-)

Very cool. Just ran this tune at big band rehearsal last night, so it's fresh in my mind. Sounds good.
