Mibac is a program that produces very authentic sequences, and does so much more quickly than one could enter the parts with a MlDl keyboard and sequencer. It seems to be specifically designed for the improviser lacking in keyboard proficiency, making it possible for an instrumentalist or vocalist to work on the changes to any tune without the need for a rhythm section or a play along record. It also allows those creating their own jazz compositions to hear the rhythm section play the changes in a stylistic manner. The manual is well-written and contains an excellent tutorial that takes the user through virtually all the features of the program... the transpose function is excellent and will be a time saver for instructors.) The ability to customize rhythm-section backgrounds will be helpful to individual students at any level of improvisation ability, and will be especially helpful to teachers, both in private studios and in the classroom, who want to provide accompaniment tapes for their students ...Downbeat Magazine If you're into jazz, you'll like MiBAC Jazz...it does what it does better than anything else! Chords are entered into a
lead sheet, and the program generates music based on the selected
musical style. MiBAC Jazz concentrates all its energies on one type of
music: jazz. Not surprisingly then, MiBAC Jazz produces convincing
results in various jazz styles. These include Jazz 4/4, Jazz 3/4, Slow 4
(l2/8 feel), and Latin, each with different grooves that change
according to the tempo. For example, MiBAC Jazz's "piano
player" comps quite differently in a burnin' bebop tune than in a
medium swing tune. It is intended to be used as your own personal
jazz rhythm section for practicing improvisation, but it may be useful
as a composition/lead sheet-creation tool as well... Electronic
Musician MiBAC Jazz is an excellent example of software that targets a specific musical problem-jazz improvisation... How does it sound? The rhythm section sounds real - not a mechanical drum machine feel. You can tailor your drummer to suit your own tastes...considering the well-thought-out manual, excellent musical feel, printing and chord options, this is a wonderful tool for developing jazz improvisational skills. Nice work!....American Music Teacher MiBAC represents a breakthrough in jazz sure to have an impact on this and future generations of musicians!... David N. Baker, Indiana University
