Thanx guys,

I did this production with a "borrowed" BIAB 2013. blush And now I'm the official owner of 2014 cool

I was hoping the user interface of 2014 would have been improved. Well, it's improved some, but it's still horror.. shocked

But still the best composing software for me though..:)

Let Di and me be the next to welcome you to the BIAB forums.

I (Al) play around with mixing compatible genres and have played around Hip-Hop and Jazz Fusion. I've ended up with some interesting tracks!

Love everything about this. The vocal is strong and convincing and the mix is great! You're off to a terrific start with BIAB. Very nice, indeed! Best to you...

Congrats on making a highly annoying song seem cool!
Not a bad 'first' at all smile

p.s. And if that vocal is your own, then you're wasted on a place like here. That voice should be on cd's already!


Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!
