I have this product and it is the cheap answer to a kemper. Full price is $ 149 but I got it on a real good deal. You don't have to buy the pedal part if you are not playing live. ToneX

Hi Janice, Bud and Peter. This is fantastic listening. I loved the journey. The image below is a really good representation of what I was looking like and what I was feeling as I listened. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=27864&filename=happy listener small.jpg) The melody, the harmony, Janice's exquisite vocals (lead and harmony), the superb lyrics and Peter's awesome guitar work sat so very comfortably on my psyche. What a great chorus! I always come alive in the evening listening to the night birds singing surrounded by the glow of fireflies I no longer think of blue skies
These lines are highly visual and I felt like I could almost reach out and touch the fireflies. Then when verse 2 came along... when the full moon is shining bright that’s when my spirit takes flight walking through a field of silver dew with every step my soul renews
...I felt like I was the character in the song. From start to finish, I was with you all, all the way, and fully involved in the unfolding story. Terrific everything! --Noel

Another winner from the Big Three! As usual great vocal, harmonies, guitar, and mix. This brought me back to the 1960's so thanx for the memories. Janice, Bud, and Peter, I loved this one!

Well, gotta start with the question, what kind of guitar are you using to feed said effect? Strat? Les Paul? Yamaha? RT? ... Hardware or software FX? You gave a lot of info about what you like but very little to actually help someone suggest something .. what do you have to work with? /that said, I doubt he gets that sound with budget stuff, unfortunately

Also... If you record yourself humming a melody in BIAB, it's possible to transcribe that to MIDI using the Audio menu option shown below (#2). When it comes to chords, you would get a much better result if you can determine the key signature of what you hum and then set that key in BIAB. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=27863&filename=audio to midi 2024.jpg)

I have a reply from AurallySound who also say panning can be an issue and Take Five is panned strongly: I took a listen and expected it to do considerably better than it did. My guess would be the rather unusual panning of instruments (the center is really open (!)) is quite different from the rock/pop songs used to train the stem separator. Will training does do some dynamic re-panning it doesn't do anything as extreme as pushing the drums so far left--perhaps something to look into. Take Five was recorded in 1959, so could have originally been mono limited stereo. That they expected it to do better is encouraging, though some other tunes I tried were also less than brilliant.

this looked promising however the download password protection scheme failed me. The PULSE application would not accept the serial number that was provided. Waste of time.... Register with PULSE then Register with WESTWOOD and still no technical support to get an answer. Edit.. Nevermind... Download our free ROOTS libraries with Native Access. Add the serial key (found in your purchase email) to Native Access to download and register the library in one step. Do not attempt to download via Pulse – the serial key will not be recognised! This is interesting. I have had no problems with Pulse thus far. Note that I did not DL Roots as Swam just updated there solo strings and they sound great. Couple that with my other string libraries and I have better sounding strings then Roots, however others may find Roots very good.

Not MIDI Monitor, Event List .. more likely to find any events. It's the big 'E' icon in the top Ribbon. Select desired Track(s) to show in Event List and then launch it.

Actually, even though the styles are somewhat limited, you can enter a melody and have the MELODIST feature REHARMONIZE. Make sure you uncheck "Generate Melody." Give it a shot.

Very original. I'm not sure I agree that the vocals should take a different direction. Perhaps you are trying to make a point about pointlessness/redundancy of the whole excursion?

Update. Rharv correctly stated I have RealBand, which I had not used in many years. The MIDI Monitor in RealBand does show me the contents of the two sample files I was sent. I have printed them for comparison, along with my first attempt to make a Type 0 file (that doesn't play on the carillon) and am analyzing them all now. Thank you all for your assistance.

Well, that was most definitely FUN. (Janice was dancing all over the room. 😊) And Attitude, yeah!! Power vocals and a tight band and the guitar and organ work great together. Even when you are dropping a "throw away" song the result is a most enjoyable high bar production. Rock on, mr. jane! J&B PS. And your cover art colors perfectly match our kitchen (where Janice dances around often)! Thanks for the great review I really enjoy the energy of this song. Drum track is perfect. Gayle - thanks for stopping by! Great song Floyd. Like everyone, I like the groove you came up with. I really liked those BGV's you put in. The effects and mix are fantastic. I sure liked the way you used that lead guitar too! Great stuff. BrAD Good to see ya, Brad! Thanks. I love the BIAB lead guitars - I can almost always get something that shines...

HI Floyd, Nice country rocker! Another gem - just like all the others. Like B.D., I think the drums could use a little more "pop" - but that's simply a personal opinion - feel free to ignore. Di always finds it easy to ignore me - so I have experience with being ignored!! As you know, I walk the halls of BIAB and pop into a few rooms I'd never been in before. I sometimes find something interesting! It's quite a maze to explore. BIAB a gift worth many times its price. Sometimes trouble can go hand-in-hand sometimes! Cool song - great presentation! Take care, Alan Thanks, Alan. I'll bump the drums on the next rocker... Hi Floyd, I always enjoy the times you rock out a little, you do it really well IMHO. For my tastes I would bring up the B3 a little, the guy doing the solo parts. Bring him up to the same level as the solo guitar, especially when they are trading licks. Good song, enjoyed! Appreciate that, Dave.I'll work at that b3 balance... Nice to hear you rocking it, Floyd. You have such a great vocal tone. Vic Thanks for that, Vic. I've always felt like "an imposter" when I have to sing a rocker...

Bob. Color me....Blown Away! WOW. An incredible lyric. It paints pictures like an art film. It tells a troubled story like a documentary. The backing tracks are as Fresh and Perfectly Chosen as the words of the lyric. Your vocal drips with authenticity. This is Damn Good Music. fj

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
