ORPHIC ENDEAVORS

Another "Sleepy Morning" and the Finale story continues

Okay. So. I did put "Sleepy Morning" away the rest of the day, but later, just before bedtime, I pulled it out again and played with it some more. (Hey, if nothing else, I figured it would help me get sleepy so I could go to bed.) I figured out I could open the Anvil Studio built midi file in the demo of Finale SongWriter, so I did. At first it sounded awful. I had two piano bits in there that played back garish and painful in Finale, even with the "Human Playback" thing involved. So I played around and tested various sounds until I got what you can hear now. I like this version. I didn't have to add reverb or anything. So.... Even though I love Anvil and it translates well to other programs, I just have to get Finale Songwriter. HAVE TO... I have some birthday money left, and they give you a discount on your purchase when you get the free Finale Notepad, so, it's going to run me about $50. That's the last of my money. After that I'm broke again. *sigh* I feel guilty about spending the money on myself, even though it's my birthday money... We are a pretty poor family after all... Guilt guilt guilt.... :(

Anyway, here's the new version of the tune: Sleepy Morning (on Finale)

And, as always, thanks for downloading and listening...
