“Now” Original Jazz using EZD Jazz Expansion kit

[johnbee]

Original Jazz tune. I used David Haynes presets and fills.  Other elements-Garritan Jazz & Big Band 3 for piano and Miroslav Philharmonik Orchestra for violin.  Chinese flute used in first verse is a free plugin from ChineseWinds via KVR Audio called Dizi Flute.  My friend, Marc Halikas provided the live bass and guitar tracks.

Nice! Back in the days…

Maybe should you soften your crash cymbals sometimes. Why did you change the toms at the end ?

Thanks for listening, Sat!
I’m not happy with the ending myself.  It’s not a Haynes preset, like the rest, but one I had to create myself because of making it a free form (aka without a tempo) ending.  I wanted to use a snare drum roll there but couldn’t find one on the MIDI map.  I posted a support question on if there is one.  Didn’t get to check to see if there’s a response yet.  I also don’t care for the kick drum on that ending either.  (It sounds like a window smashing)  I’m still open for suggestions on that.
