The theme of this submission is mostly rock/pop electric guitar, with tempos ranging from 65 to 120. I recorded all of these in the last couple of days since the email went out about the contest. They are all played on a Fender Strat. All also used only the 1 minute provided template so some seem to scale chords better within BB than others because the template doesn't have every true chord in it. Here's a sample produced directly from Band in a Box of one of these guitar tracks where I just loaded one of the pre-loaded song sample files in BB rather than using the template structure, just to see how it would scale and adjust my custom usertrack based on different chords: DJLSampleUserTrackSong Other tracks in my contest entry include gritty rhythms, U2/Edge/Pink Floyd style delay rhythms, Hendrix/Stevie/Texas style busy backing rhythms, two note power chords with doubled LR guitars, volume swell notes and chords done by picking before turning up the volume knob on the guitar, and a soft slight tremolo backing track. No matter how the contest goes, I hope users enjoy and benefit from this attempt. You can download the complete package here: DJLElectricPopRock_BBContest P.S. If you're wondering, I've nicknamed these the 'DJL' tracks because these are the first letters from my full name.

I don't have BB2014 yet, so can't test these, but now that I have made several, I marvel at yours. Great playing. Good job. I wonder if the delay ones will work, since the delay "bleeds" into the next chord. Might need a dry version to add delay onto after the fact. I almost did an edge one myself.

Thanks Brad. Yes, I did my best to prevent that problem by setting most of the delay volume to mainly be just a single repeat on the 16th note I think (i.e. it's picked on the 8th notes of beat 4) and then it only faintly repeats. I think he sets his more to fade much more gradually away over several beats, which makes it thicker but wouldn't work as well for our purposes in BB. The past two days were my first ever attempt at making usertracks and now that I see how they translate to different chord progressions in the program and realize that we're not limited to the one minute template, there's a lot of potential to build on or tweak these to make them work even better with the program.

Wow David that's some high quality playing! Lots of useful UserTracks. I just messed around with your Rhythm Crunchy Ev 100 and put in on a Reggae style. Here it is to listen: Reggae Demo of Rhythm Crunchy Ev 100Charlie.

Thanks Charlie. That was certainly not how I would have EVER imagined that particular realtrack being used, which is what makes BB so great. I can't convey how strange it is to hear my own playing over a chord progression and song I never actually played on. Thanks for sharing!

It's really fun to hear how you guys ended up using my entry in songs. It also motivates me to want to work on some more and/or refine these to use a much longer template. Thanks again!
