Excellent work and very clear and helpful descriptions. Thanks for this! Have you ever worked with Big Fish Audio’s vintage big band horns? I’m trying to learn some big band arranging using that program along with Logic Studio horns, but I’ve found BFA’s program very difficult relative to Studio horns. I wish I’d bought Swing More instead. But your tutorial has already provided some new clarity.
Thank you so much, so glad to hear you found it useful! I own Big Fish's big band stuff but I've never used it professionally. It's got a very peculiar sound that I've never needed so far.
Thanks! Really interesting! I always wondered about this. Are you saying "guide tones" and are those chord tones not the root, like the 3rd and 5th? I freely admit I am not familiar with the language of big band music, just a lifelong fan.
Question here as someone that loves composing and arranging big band music. When recording with Logic, do you use Finale or Sibelius to notate and use the midi to put it into Logic Pro, or just put the notes into the Logic Pro directly?
Hi there! To me Logic always comes first. I only bother with notation software if I need sheet music for something (like a performance or a recording session). And in that case I would always go from Logic to Sibelius and not the other way around. Cheers!

MISTAKE SPOTTED! here 1:20 I meant between D2 and E3 (instead of D1 and E3)
thank you for the breakdown! this is very clear and straightforward and the results are stunning
Glad to hear it was useful, and thanks a lot for the comment! 🙂
This is great, going to rewatch and take some notes. Thanks man!
Glad to hear you found it useful! I actually tried to condense a full 4 months course from uni in a 6 min video here!
@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic I'd say you succeeded :D

Muchas gracias - this is rally helpful and clear!
Glad to hear it was helpful, cheers! 🙌
Sounds great
Thank you! 🤗
@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic Thank you too!
Fantastic. Thank you very much. Would you consider making this Logic session available for learning purposes ?
Thank you! Not sure if I still have it but if I find it absolutely! If you give me your email I can forward it to you no problem 🤘
Yeah
Thank
The speed of teaching is so fast one can only assume the listening audience already knows what is being taught.
The beauty of video is that you can pause it at any given time and rewatch it as many times as you want! :)
Muy bueno, sos un genio !!!
Muchas gracias!!

Huge thanks buddy! 🤗

Huge thanks Wallace! Yeah when I say guide tones I refer to the third and seventh of the chord. :)
Great video. Thanks! Notes would have been useful if added.
Thank you, point taken!
Well done! Super interesting. What plug ins do you use in logic? Everything sounds so authentic
Thank you Jimmy! I used Swing and Swing more by projectsam and the trumpet by sample modelling :)
Great stuff. Do you write a full conductor's score and parts for real musicians in Sibelius or similar?
Thank you! Yes I do, only if it's going to played/recorded though.
What type of virtual instruments did you use? Wow!
Thank you! I used Swimg, Swing more and sample modelling the trumpet and trombone!
@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic Congratulations!

Thanks for the input! Will try that with my big band music! 😀
Great video! what sample libraries are you using?
Huge thanks Andrew! I used Swing and Swing more by projectsam and the trumpet by sample modelling :)
This is a very odd approach to orchestrating for a big band.
Maybe. It works for me though.
