Sounds of the circus
Two times through a work-in-progress. I changed systems after getting this far, so to finish it off I'd have to rebuild it from the ground up. I never put a proper ending or beginning on this. Some day, some day.

A friend was in a band and they wanted some circus-y music to play on the sound system while they set up. They didn't stay together long enough to use it!

Makes sense!
When you say "changed systems", do you mean changed computers or changed DAWs? I guess what I'm asking is, "How'd you make this track?"

I built it in Cakewalk's Project5 using Garritan Personal Orchestra and Jazz and Big Band sample libraries on a WinXP machine. When I upgraded to Win7 for some reason Project5 wouldn't work properly. Cakewalk dropped support for Project5 I never bothered to delve more deeply into the problem. I can import the midi patterns into Sonar and work with them there, it just hasn't been a priority.
(Project5 is a midi and audio loop-based software that has some similarities to Ableton Live and FruityLoops).
I didn't quantize anything and deliberately tried to make the timing seem imperfect. I wanted it to sound like it was being played by people and not a machine, and that some of the players might be having a little trouble keeping up with the tempo.
