![]() ![]() Hello, congrats for your great work, really inspiring taking in consideration easy of use and the big number of styles resources from the web.īeside the fact that a Vst version for Mac will be really amazing and I will pay for it 100% (or in the begining at least a midi sync and why not midi in functional), For example the bass lines often just use root and fifths, so changing to Cm7 phrygian (natural 5th) will have no effect. Note that in many cases you won't hear any difference in the rendering: this is because many styles only use simple notes for maximum "portability". This way JJazzLab will be able to change the D note to Db for Cm7 phrygian. But what if the song was in C phrygian (with a flat 9th) ? The harmony tab lets you tell JJazzLab the harmony mode to be used for each chord. What if the C7M bass phrase contains a D (9th) ? By default JJazzLab will assume it's a dorian mode (with a natural 9th), so D will remain unchanged. So if the C7M reference phrase contains E and leadsheet chord is Cm7, JJazzLab changes E to Eb. JJazzLab uses this phrase and modifies it to fit the leadsheet chord. sty file defines a bass phrase for a reference chord (usually C7M). If we take the bass line for Variation Main A for example, the. To answer I first need to explain how Yamaha styles work (or BIAB) in general. Your workflow for editing or making styles is indeed complex: a bunch of midi files of equal length with correct filenames, my, my! Sadly, the alternative is expensive stylemaking software. This way, hopefully, you could be trying out reharmonizations, like Mulgrew Miller, Bill Evans, Hancock, and the style would play it right (unlike band in a box, which is harmonically very poor). ![]() Your idea of every chord having a defined harmony or scale is soooo important. Was that your reasoning? I could live with that. This is a nice idea, but wouldn’t it be best to make at least Db7 out of it? Maybe not, maybe you use this method because If you enter Db and think Lydian dominant, the accompaniment will just stick to triads, and this is a nice idea. But, if I go to “edit chord symbol” and choose the tab called “harmony” and select Db lydian dominant, it doesn’t change the chord symbol. If you right click and choose Edit, it defaults to E! This seems unintentional and wrong. If you double click a chord and change the harmony, the original root is preserved.Since I chose another drum,it, it’s better that it stays selected as long as I don’t switch styles or anything. But ok, if I choose instrument 41 (brushes, named violins, I think) it remains ok, but every time I press play the drums return to program 1. Drums: if there is no drum set in the style it says in the mixer: not set! If you choose an instrument, it won’t give you a list of drumsets, it remains blank.Please do not forget to make separate threads in this "feedback" forum section. I urge you to consider implementing support for these. It might be harder to implement these at later stages. BUT again, I feel you are missing out GREATLY by not looking into Roland / Ketron styles. ![]() Not to be on negative side, but why re-invent the wheel? I understand that your "price" is more than fair and I am confident if you continue with same pace, you will get a solid following. Also, there was Livestyler, which was advanced piece of soft (unfortunately developer died a few years ago). It does not look "pretty", but very capable. Actually several versions of it, including ios. that is "better"ġmanband already had/has Yamaha style player / arranger. To have a universal program that can handle variety of styles. "Note that my personal objective for JJazzLab is to do "better" rather than "more""
