WOW, you really opened wide the flood gates that were holding back your creativity, James. You are realy sucha good composer --not just a writer. A wonderfully crafted song, and you're doing a great job with the synth, too. Yes, yes, but can you make her speak the words as well you do? That would be cool to hear a synth trying to deliver vocal tracks with that cool Delsono style. Flute was the perfect choice, too.

Nicely done, Chay. Yes, solos in BiaB are the always the hardest part for me, too. I spend so much time with the Ctrl+F8 buttons --sometimes longer than the whole rest of the song. You managed to do a good job matching the sound and feel of those blends. In the same way you illustrated the ups and downs of some relationships masterfully with both the music and the video. An very interesting 6-minute story.

drone. its a looong time since i used cubase. so i cant comment much. i assume you can drop into cubase audio and midi tracks generated by pg bb/rb. but rb and bb have lots of unique features i havent found in other daws. its not just the pg track generation features but other tricks and features. i cant comment further...so it might be best to open up rb and read the manual to compare features with cubase. the negative of rb is its gui...but...like the famous saying...theres lots of lovely features underneath. rb...so just read therb manual. the tricks ive outlined are just a few of the many to discover in bb/rb. fyi last week i tried a.very high end daw costing big...over 1000... it looked fantastic and had its own great features...but underneath i found i would miss many rb features. cest la vie...its like any gear...plusses and minuses. om 🇨🇦🇨🇦 🇬🇧🇬🇧

GREAT stuff, Jona! Much fun. It's got that NOLA vibe with some fine musicians. Good mix, too. Oh, man, I could listen to you gyus all day (and, of course, if Timo ever needs a break, I'm in. Loved it.

This is really cool! Kind of a funk island sound. I dig it!! Great mix too and guitar work by Dave! Thanks, David. Yeah, that's my style, "Kinda." Not quite this, not quite that. Glad you like it. Hi, Marty. I still remember B sides of records. They've got the songs that sometimes sound better than the A side.  Nice. Plus, the verse has an interesting "walk up" I'd expect from a bridge. Thanks, David. I agree about the Bs. Seems you and I (and probably a lot of us here) weren't the marketing targets of the music moguls. Marty, Great song and great arrangement. Love your vocal and Dave's work here. I also love B sides, so much excellent material was lost on the flip side. This one deserves to be heard over and over! Bob Thanks, Bob. This one sat on the shelf for a year, and now finally breathes. It'll be a last minute addition to a new album coming out next month. Course not many will hear that either. Thank you Marty for this great marriage between video and music. The backing guitar is great. Laurent Thanks, Laurent. You, too, are putting together some lasting marriages.

Dear Musocity, sole reason why using REAPER only occasionally is, that I use Samplitide meanwhile for more than 30 years, having more than 100 projects in work. There is no way to open them in REAPER or to save them easily in a REAPER project format. It would be just too much work to move them all to another DAW. That's why I still stay with Samplitude. It does almost everything I need from a DAW, and am used to it. Look and feel and behavior are pretty straight forward, a bit like in the times of analog mixing desks, similar to REAPER. Other DAWs like Cubase or StudioOne may offer more functionality, but they appear a bit confusing to me. Kind Regards Roland

sometimes KISS just works. Amen! It's a focus that products, particularly software products, so often lose in the pursuit of features and tick-boxes. Focus first on a product that's easy and a pleasure to use and have a standard method to get to extended features. I've pretty much always taken the view that if something is technically logical to do, the product should do it, even if I can't at the start see a reason why anyone "would want to do that". Partly because, once the logic is established, it's quite often easier and partly because it's often turned out that there actually is a good reason why someone might want to do it.

Ezekiel, Wow, love the opening to this . . . that piano really resonates. And when it gets to that chorus . . . what a rich deep and emotional sound . . . your vocal sits right there . . . and then it quiets down . . . lovely production choices on this. Powerful emotionally . . . you nail the vocal in the chorus . . . compelling. Impressive tune . . . well done!! Deej

J&B and Peter, Well, those harmonies really take this over the top, along with some of the other more subtle BGVs. Which is not to diminish how stellar the lead vocal is . . . because it's a treat . . . as much as that slick lead solo. Wonderful mix! Yeah, like this one! Good stuff folks!! Deej

David, It's a wonderful write and terrific arrangement. In that regard, I like the build . . . starting simple and just adding along the way, which adds so much gravity to the tune as it moves on. From a production standpoint, I think the vocal is a bit too far out in front . . . I'd like it just a bit softer. Though that's an artistic preference . . . as always, go with what feels right to you. Deej

Ronnie, This song really grew on me the more I listened . . . that is, the opening seemed, well, OK lyrically . . . but as the song went on, the lyrics expanded a bit and that lovely, sincere vocal gave it just the right touch. Yeah . . . I think I'm digging this. I can see it sung at a wedding . . . well done! Deej

Donny, Yeah, this has a Willie Nelson type feel to it . . . From a production standpoint it could use some tweaking . . . the vocal (apart from the sibilance) is a bit high end . . . I'd like it a bit warmer . . . but, hey, that's all personal preference and subjective . . . but it doesn't sound like the singer is in the same room as the band . . . so maybe play with it a bit more. I like the tune a lot as is! Deej

James, DC Ron, Floyd, Bob, Alexander, Dewey, David, Ezekiel, Marty and Mario: Thanks so much for the listens. I can't tell you how guilty I felt letting this song sit around for as long as I did, particularly given that right from the start I told Christian I wanted to write the lyrics for it. It was such a wonderful tune, and I could hear the melody so easy . . . it's just that the words never seemed to come or fit. But sometimes letting a song sit is the best thing . . . and hopefully that's the case here. Glad you enjoyed it for what it is. My best to you all, Deej

> The problem I see is when rendering to audio, it takes "forever". I see that temp files always are using the location of BIAB's install as the temp file location. Jason, I assume you’re referring to BiaB, and not Realband, For BiaB, what temp files are you referring to? Normally, to save a mp3, the only files saved are going to be the master.wav and the master.mp3 and both of those get saved to the (fast c:\…) directory you choose, and not to the BB home directory. The .mp3 conversion gets done by a windows codec, so we don’t have any control over that, but I don’t recall it needing to use temp files to do that. So let me know what temp files you are seeing. ‘The slowness you are seeing is likely related to the slow USB connection to the hard drive you’re describing that contains BiaB as well as the RealTracks. That would affect generation time of the arrangement itself, which takes place in memory, not on disk. But to make the arrangement, it is reading (not writing) lots of files from the RealTracks and RealDrums folders in your (slow) USB drive.’ What is the time to just render to a .WAV file?

Hey this is great guys. I really love the almost surreal moodiness of this. It's very panoramic. I mean the lyrics are panoramic and the music is panoramic as well. That's a really exceptional musical production all around. Really like this one.

Hallo Leute, vermutlich eine oft gestellte Frage, aber da es anscheinend unterschiedliche Infos darüber gibt, möchte ich nochmal nachfragen: Kurzform: Notebook kaputt, muss Biab nun komplett auf neuem Notebook installieren. Bin Biab-User seit 2015, jährlich also Ultrapak-Upgrades, dazu sämtliche Add Ons gekauft, also Xtra Styles, XPro-Styles usw. Bei PG Music habe ich neulich im Chat gefragt, ob es reicht, wenn ich in Sachen Biab-Neuinstallation nur die letzte 2024 Version installieren muss (und natürlich meine dazugekauften Add Ons) oder auch noch alle Versionen von 2015 an, 2016, 2017, 2018 usw. Man meinte, nur die aktuelle 2024 Version. Evtl. hat man mich da falsch verstanden, ich weiß es nicht. Und meine Add Ons muss ich natürlich extra installieren, logisch. Nun meine ich aber hier in diesem Forum mitbekommen zu haben, dass man auch vorherige Versionen installieren sollte - also in meinem Fall die älteste Version 2015 und dann zu guter Letzt die aktuelle Version 2024. ?? Oder hab' ich das alles falsch verstanden ?? Wenn ich nochmal in Erfahrung bringen könnte, wie es richtig laufen sollte, würde ich mich freuen. Es kostet schon etliche graue Haare extra, wenn bis vor 14 Tagen auf der SSD alles gepasst hat, im Biab-Add Ons Fenster 3x 100% bei den Installationen angezeigt wurde, also alles da, nichts fehlte - und dann das Dilemma.... Bleibt kreativ. Nachtrag: Über Nacht habe ich den Komplett-Downloads von Biab-Version 2024 (Biab Install Manager) versucht und sogar weitestgehend alle Files automatisch installieren können - bis auf einige "korrupte" Realtracks, die ließen sich partout nicht downloaden, da kam jeweils nach wenigen Sekunden eine Fehlermeldung. Hatte ich bislang in all' den Jahren noch nie gehabt. Also z.B. in diesem Fall zwischendurch bei den Realtracks 44-49, 35-39, 63-66, 78-82, 109-113 usw......bis 320-323. Die letzten Realtracks der 400er Serie klappten, das Ende ist also 446-448. Dann bin ich auf die Idee gekommen, dass ich die "älteren" Realtracks ggf. per Upgrade 2022, 2021 o.ä. abholen könnte, ob nun per Biab-Download Manager oder im direkten Download im Browser. LEIDER klappte das auch nicht. Immer Fehlermeldungen, die betreffenden Realtracks ließen sich weder im Download-Manager noch direkt im Browser downloaden. Mir jedenfalls ein Rätsel.... Aber ich bin inzwischen soweit gekommen, dass ich immerhin bei 85% Realtracks, 100% (!) Xtra Styles und 100% (!) XPro Styles gelandet bin. DAS hätte ich gestern Abend bei meiner obigen Eingangsfrage nicht erwartet! Die fehlenden 15% bei den Realtracks sind vermutlich auf die derzeit für mich nicht erreichbaren Realtracks zurückzuführen. Da werd' ich dann am Montag im Biab-Live-Chat mal nachhaken. Dafür muss es ja eine Lösung geben.

mg. not vacillation....cos ..due to my vision i cant abide small screens...have to use biggie screens....i guess big screen via lightning ? ..i use bb/realband combo to create songs... so i would lose a lot of functions and pg content much as i am impressed what apple is doing. ..concerns expressed by some users. ive been reading re expandability...ports...and file transfers and other aspects other than cost. of course....gonna do more digging. note i dont need portability. dont get me wrong its a lovely product...but the more i dig...the more im finding out some disadvantages. reported by testers and users. its a very closed platform. i suspect there will be more reiterations of the product to get more users on side. right now i think the 'deal' seems to be a refurb mac mini m2 with logic.for 700 bucks it would seem. half time borussia d. 0...real m ...0 borussia had some great chsnces.. happiness. om 🇨🇦🇨🇦 🇬🇧🇬🇧
