Great stuff This is wonderful! You composed this yourself... very nicely done! Did you write this out in a separate composition program (so you can print the scores for real players, as Tobin suggests?) Or did you just play each part on the keyboard? The humanized timing "sloppiness" sounds like you played it real-time, which is a GOOD thing with this... it does not have that mechanical music-box-MIDI feel that comes from exact note- timings from a score... this feels like a real outdoor band. Nice spread of instruments. Is this Jampack 4 in Garageband, or the MK149? Instruments aren't too shabby. Welcome to Macjams, BTW! ttfn, Drakonis Check out my latest song called Lullaby for the Inner Child

Thanks for your compliments. Thanks for your kind comments. I composed the actual tune more or less by accident something like 30 years ago. I never actually wrote it down (good memory!), and this arrangement wasn't written out - semi-improvised, though I did prepare some of the harmony and decide in general what I wanted to do. This is GarageBand 2: the trumpet is a QuickTime instrument, the clarinet, sax and trombone are SoundFonts, the rest are GB (the 'bass sax' is the tenor sax). The keyboard is MIDI only, it doesn't make any sounds. There was a fair amount of cheating going on: most of the parts were played at 120 bpm and speeded up to 168 (though I found it easier to play the trumpet at 168). The piano solo was done using a 88-key keyboard on a Clavinova, though I used the GB software piano. It was played at 100bpm and the left and right hands were done separately. There was also a fair amount of editing of individual notes on some of the parts (my hands are stiffer than they used to be). The modulation to E flat at the end was played in C and done in GarageBand. Check out my latest song called A Windows User's Lament

(Sorry about the double post) Didn't mean to post twice! - Safari gives you no feedback when you post, so it looks as if nothing has happened. But it had. Check out my latest song called A Windows User's Lament

fun like the old time ragtime feel. Almost a "When I am 64 Beatles sound in a way with a ooh poop a dupe -Betty boop. Kind a reminds me of a early Walt Disney Micky Mouse shakin his rear end as he's catering food for a ship restaurant. Gad, were did I come up with that:) Thanks, really enjoyed! Check out my latest song called The Bluebird Cafe (with two other guest)

Delightful old-style Dixieland composition. I especially like the passing
nod to Popeye the Sailor. Next step, you should try and get real players to
breathe life into it. It is worthy of it. Very enjoyable.
