    The speed of teaching is so fast one can only assume the listening audience already knows what is being taught.

    Excellent work and very clear and helpful descriptions. Thanks for this! Have you ever worked with Big Fish Audio’s vintage big band horns? I’m trying to learn some big band arranging using that program along with Logic Studio horns, but I’ve found BFA’s program very difficult relative to Studio horns. I wish I’d bought Swing More instead. But your tutorial has already provided some new clarity.

    Thank you so much, so glad to hear you found it useful! I own Big Fish's big band stuff but I've never used it professionally. It's got a very peculiar sound that I've never needed so far.

    Thanks! Really interesting! I always wondered about this. Are you saying "guide tones" and are those chord tones not the root, like the 3rd and 5th? I freely admit I am not familiar with the language of big band music, just a lifelong fan.

    Huge thanks Wallace! Yeah when I say guide tones I refer to the third and seventh of the chord. :)

    Question here as someone that loves composing and arranging big band music. When recording with Logic, do you use Finale or Sibelius to notate and use the midi to put it into Logic Pro, or just put the notes into the Logic Pro directly?

  • @alvarorodriguezfilmmusic

    @alvarorodriguezfilmmusic

    4 ай бұрын

    Hi there! To me Logic always comes first. I only bother with notation software if I need sheet music for something (like a performance or a recording session). And in that case I would always go from Logic to Sibelius and not the other way around. Cheers!

    I didn't make a transcript. Everything was done in Logic. At any rate my favourite books on the subject are 'The Complete arranger' by Nestico, 'The Contemporary Arranger' by Sebesky, and 'Inside the Score' by Wright.
