Hi again,
Another idea I have (it may have already been discussed, idk),
would be to either upgrade the audio plater with six tracks each with a volume controllable via midi,
or have MS use an external player; I'm thinking of Audacity, but it could be any other audio multitrack player.
That way, using stems, you could start an evening as a duo,
then other musicians or invited guests come later or at any point during the night.
If you add a bass player, just lower the volume of the recorded bass while he is playing.
This is what I am thinking of doing.
In our small town, there are not really any bands any longer, mostly just duos and solos.
But there are several musicians that would love to play a tune or a set when they go out to a club.
I know that I would love that possibility if I wasn't the one with the gig.
Has anyone discussed this before on the forum?
Sincerely,
Dan
NB: BTW, I discovered stems recently, so if anyone doesn't know what it is,
it's a (usually) 6 track song recorded in one mp4 file (in the program I use anyway) .
When playing back, the mix of the six tracks can thus be altered at will.
Mute the vocal track, and the file is now a vocal backtrack.
Got a bass player, mute the bass track, etc...
