I use "Solo-Works" music software by Melody Innovator Music to create my music samples. Then I use Sibelius's G7 for notation and publishing on G7music.net! If you like what you've heard then you might be interested in my software. You can visit my web site at
http://www.solobeat.com
to read about "Solo-Works" unique features, view screen prints, and listen to more samples. You can also download "Solo-Works" for a free 90 day trial
with option to purchase as well.
In addition to playing jazz guitar I am a software developer. I created the software "Solo-Works" so that I could explore and create unique sounding solo licks. I have found this software to be very useful. That's because the licks that I created and learned are now among the best that I know. Please visit my web site to learn more about Melody Innovator's "Solo-Works".
Among my favorite guitar players, I like listening to Wes Montgomery, Pat Martino, George Benson, John McLaughlin, and Alan Holdsworth. Other great guitar players I like are Don Mock, Jay Roberts, and long time friend Rick Novito. In the picture of me, I am playing my 1956 Gibson L-5 with Alnico pickups. This is an awesome vintage guitar. I also play a 1959 Gibson Byrdland and a 1960 Gibson ES350T with PAFs. |
