very, very nice. Gotta be my favorite instrument for solos. Good luck and good experience with the RPM. I did it just once and it was the best month of my musical life.

What a gorgeous piece! I actually prefer this one with the longer reverb as it gives the impression of not intruding on the conversation, but listening to it from a distance. Just beautiful Richard!
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…

High quality wav samples over 320 bps will work for you , they are live people playing with the ear and skill to do it well enough to sell.But there are free samples out there for most systems. I will take a look see and drop ya a link , if i find a good one.

rpm #4,, i love watching the local birds,, in winter they seem a bit more eager, in my imagination,, they must spend more of their time sitting around their wood stoves, munching on seeds and telling stories of summer days, all the while as the…
hello again friend,, a major story begins...? as i have said prior your story telling is wonderful, i also find it very picturesque, your words create images, imagery, that is quite strong, like the pieces you make and share,,, take care R
This is finger picked (quasi – classical guitar) improvisation with my wife’s Seagull acoustic guitar with Dean Markley soundhole pick up and AKG microphone with mastering.

to stop our light…
such a beautiful journey is parenthood, sometimes the toughest of we can ever do,,both wonderful and tough, because of the love we feel,,,, as a fellow traveler on this same road for the past 23 years, i wish you joy, strength, and courage,, this is a fine song,,, R
really nice,, listening to this in headphones i can almost feel/see the bending/vibrating of the drum skin,, your recordings are very rich it's kind of neat because on one hand,, one might think it's just a simple drum,, but as i listen i always hear so many sound textures/timbre from the way different parts of you hands touch/hit to the different parts of the drum being hit , it's a very rich experience, and that's not even mentioning the wonderful rhythms you show us,,,drums are a very sensual sound,,, very nicely done,,i always look forward to hearing from you Richard

A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.

In 2009 I ran an internet contest where contestants had to use one or more of the samples provided in their piece. Here I put together a number of the samples I provided into one piece.

This is just about perfect for me and I can't help thinking that your description would make a perfect short animation. If only I had the skill.
Absolutely gorgeous piece, Richard. w;-)

Excellent!
Cello is a cool tool.
Solo pieces are a lot harder than full orchestra, in many ways indeed. But this sounds very nice.
Really beautiful music.
Deep tones.
Carried away by this one Richard. Good luck on the RPM, might have to wait and hear the album as a finished piece. :) No spoliers!
Wonderful composition Richard!
These midi tracks are excellent.
Another great track mate.
Excellent track.
Beautiful Richard.
