Re: BB Loading into Jam Man

 

Thanks Robert!

I will try it out tonight. That sounds very easy to me since I already have Audacity.

Not sure it is the easiest way but I use Audacity to create .wav (MS format) that can be imported in the the Jam Manager. In BB I use the create wav tool to create either a wav or mp3 recording. The BB wav file, I think, is a raw sample format that is not the same as the MS .wav format so Jam Manager doesn't recoginize the file. I then start Audacity and load the BB wav or mp3. In Audacity I use "export" and save as .wav (MS).

Great stuff.

I found what worked better than anything I have tried up to this point is to write out the notes for each chord in the tune as a - Third-Root-Seventh-Root and memorize that form for every chord type, major, dorian, dominant, diminished, etc,and learn them in two octaves each.
You might also want to work with Garrison Fewell's Melodic Improvisation book, which shows you how to get those arpeggios to sound like music with 'correct' jazz phrasing. I got an awful lot out of a summer course with him, and a lot of what he taught is in the book.

Re: BB Loading into Jam Man

 

I did get one involved response but there has to be an easier way with Audacity or something. BB converts directly to wave though and it isn't working.
-----------------
By the way my arpeggio practice with standards has worked out really well. I listed to what all of you guys told me from your own perspective, all of which helped.

This is helping me move through the tune without getting lost and better learn the notes of gravity of a chord. When I add notes of the melody line and a few scales and chromatic lines to the mix it is actually beginning to sound like music for the first time.

Is there a detailed procedure for that somewhere. People certainly

I've been struggling with this for 6 months and I looks like I'm
doing everything right in terms of file conversion and loading but
the Jam Man is just not recognizing the files. I have a mono
version Jam Man and I do convert the stereo file to mono before
saving to the correct format.

For me this is a perfect way for me to accompany myself by creating
the tracks and having the capability to keep them anywhere and stop
and start with the click of a pedal. It's just not loading.

I've tried the Jam Man yahoo site and online stuff and haven't
found help there.

My reason for writing is that there is often talk of thousands or
biab and midi files on the internet. Websites abound with dead links
to sites that used to exist every time I have gone searching for biab
stuff I can never find a site that has the tune I want. The other day
I searched for a file for Layla, plugged or not. Nada! lots of people
trying to sell stuff tho. It's not like that's an obscure song. What
I was after was the appropriate style for the unplugged version and
as usual was in a hurry and didn't want to have to experiment with
the proper ^'s to get the anticipations right. I should probably
follow my own advise and try one of the forums. They are supposed to
have tons of files but I can't find them. I'm a member to the pg site
forum and the one on yahoo .

Thanks. There is probably some truth in what you say. I do know from
MRI scans that there is damage to the shoulder joint from
osteoporosis. At least in that area it is the chief cause of the
inflammation. The dairy could be a contributor. I didn't know tho,
that it was well known that dairy caused inflammation or maybe I just
don't remember reading it. Been watching what we eat since the 60s.
Never bought into the mucousless diet or macro biotics tho. Too rad
for this old hippy. And not enough science to back it up.

I am looking for some good books of jazz duets.

I am thinking along the lines of two guitar lines, or bass and guitar lines, or sax or trumpet and guitar over some standards. Something that will be fun, help my reading, something that I can play with friends.

Any suggestions?
May I recommend "Famous Jazz Guitar Solos" transcribed by Ivor Mairants, c.1989 Hal Leonard (HL00699081). You might find it in a library - I did - but Amazon doesn't seem to have it at this time.

Good information Mike......I should point out that quitting dairy worked for me and to make a blanket statement that joint pain can be alleviated by doing so(and spelling dairy wrong) is unacceptable.

That being said what does anyone have to lose by trying it?
Start today see if you feel better after a week,if not try something different. .(don't forget the coffee cream)


One thing I've done over the years as I drive the car is to exercise my (left)fingers on the steering wheel's grips ...even stretching out the fingers (to the beat of the jazz radio)as if I'm changing chords..lifting on finger at a time. Or strumming my left fingers along the emergency brake lever. Just builds strength and dexterity.

Re: Jazz Duets - Suggestions

 

Hi Mark,
These arent' books, but if you haven't listened to these two cd's, i guess they
will be inspiring:

Martin Taylor and Louis Stewart - Acoustic guitar duets ; i think it's out of
print, but available on amazon or something.


Jimmy Rainey - He has some CDs in which he plays solo and dubs himself, it's
great.

Sorry for not answering your question! ;-)
