Well, I had an urge…
FIRST, with great apologies to Phil Flood, I bashed one of his STAX kits and his string kit to come up with STAX_FIDDLE, which you’ll need for the song. Link is below.
SECOND, I’m working on a real bluegrass fiddle wav set to replace the fiddle in the bashed kit. IF anyone has the samples ready to go, let me know… its coming…slowly
Other than that, it also works well with Phil Flood’s EJ Piano and Strings.

Its in the original key of A, but if you want to make it easier for the boogie backing rhythm, CAPO 2 and play in G
Phil - do you have the MIDI map for this kit? I was thinking of scratching out a OP for Jason Isbell’s ‘If It Takes a Lifetime’ using the Gig Essentials Shuffle Funk and crafting a simple fiddle part in REAPER. Can’t find a MIDI file online for this song after some searching.
Phil Flood should have one as it’s his kit… but you could use the drum kit editor in the BBM. That’s what I do.

Hey Phil… thanks for getting back to him. I couldn’t put my hands on the midi map,

The link to the stax Fiddle kit isn’t working anymore.
Where xan I find the kit?
Enjoy!
Thanks, Phil!!
