Changing
patches and layers gets more interesting with
a Laptop Computer in the loop. I found the
best method for me is using the Ground control
Pro in conjunction with some software called
Bome. Bome is a midi translator that converts
midi foot pedal actuations to key switches. I
am using Reaper as a host for the VST
instruments on the Laptop. Reaper has the
ability of custom programming the key switches
on a qwerty keyboard to select tracks where
the instruments reside.
Horn Section Sounds
Here is an example of my setup.I am
using Sample Modeling's Sax Brothers and
The Trumpet for my Horn Section. So far it
is the best section sound I have been able
to assemble. It is great for big band and
a hot R&B horn section
