HI PianoBench
many thanks for your really quick answer.
You are right: The Titel "it´s raining again" is not in "mimusone" and not in "play along"
I will try in eatsleepmusic.
once more , thank you.

Good morning, everyone.

<< Hi PianoBench


you wrote, you are a sax player. THis letter now i am writing for my friend.
He is a sax player too. He is surching for a midifile or a special cd(or mp3)
for the song : It´s raining again from supertramp. He wants to play the
intro and the middle part with his sax and the accompaniment should come from
the midi or other medium.


Do you know this titel and how to get a "playback" or "play along" or "minus
one"? May be anybody else here in this forum can help me and my freind?


Thanks for you.>>

I don't know this song. I presume that it is a copyrighted song, so your
search is probably limited to commerical sources.

I did a quick search on www.google.com for:

"It's Raining" + supertramp + MIDI

(The reason for using quotes around "It's Raining" is to keep the search
engine from finding web pages with those two words in separate, unrelated
places on the page.) Quite a number of hits came up.

You can also try the search with this string:

"It's Raining" + supertramp + MP3

Since you mentioned mp3 or CD as a possibility (i.e. digital audio as opposed
to MIDI), I recommend that you try:

www.musicminusone.com

Music Minus One has specialized in this sort of music (using recordings of
real instruments, not MIDI instruments) for many years. You will note on
their website that they also advertise a CD player from Superscope that will
let you adjust the tempo without changing the pitch--a feature that used to
be exclusive to the MIDI domain. It can also change the pitch without
changing the tempo--something that the CD player in the Disklavier Mark III
can do (but not the DCD1).

Lastly, you might want to try www.eatsleepmusic.com and check out the Tune
1000 series. I did a quick search there for "It's Raining", and the search
engine came up with 3 MIDI files, one of which was from SuperTramp.

PianoBench
