MTPro hasn't been available for years. GVox bought it, rewrote it, introduced a few bugs, fixed them and then abandoned it. Don Williams came to where we were playing. He said he's working on Encore first, then he'll get to MTPro, but the code was more messed up than he thought, so it's going to take longer than he thought. I have an old copy on a WinXP computer. One of those ThinkPad machines that just won't die. I tried it on Win11, and it seems to work, but I can't associate the file name with it. But as long as the XP computer works, I'm fine. I tried PTPro, but it doesn't have the editing features. One example of many. If I decide I want to delay the snare drums on beats 2 and 4 a little more than I played them, I could highlight the track, choose the pitch for the snare drum, choose only beats 2 and 4, decide how many ppm ticks to move it, and hit enter. Done. There are dozens of different editing features you can do with the change dialog box, that can affect the entire track, so I don't have to go bar to bar to change something that I think would improve the song. Notes ♫

Hi all, Here's a folk ballad sung by Natalie (Synthesizer v). https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/when-imaginary When imaginary will meet reality A thermal shock will form and freeze all your body Will your so special brain accept what’s happening Will your so fragile heart bear this without failing Beautiful dreams Do you have to fulfill them I dream my life And then I have no problem We sometimes build ideas which are made of crystal But they are too fragile, the outcome is fatal When imaginary will meet reality A thermal shock will form and freeze all your body RT 531 Acoustic Bass RT 3672 Piano RT 2178 Mandolin RT 3973 Resonator Guitar RT 529 Acoustic Guitar

Hi Wayne, A lovely song! I like that Latin fibe and your vocals shine in it! The topic in the lyrics is handling 'getting older' too: "Time waits for no one, there’s choices to be made" I enjoyed it a lot! Hans

In general terms, you should be able to install your 2018 version, and then the latest 'update', however, some of those updates might be various Xtra Styles, limited edition RealTracks etc. Your need to install incremental patches etc might be determined by what you have purchased since 'as updates'. My advise is to select "Help > What add-ons do I have?" and make a list of your current status (screen capture will be OK). On the new system, work towards making the same list identical. Contact PG Music Support for assistance to guide you. That's what they are there for. If you log in to your PG Music Account (not the forum pages) and select 'Registered Products', you should see a list of your Products and Serial Numbers, as well as Available Downloads.

Ron, Brain and Janne, Hi, thanks for posting your nice comment. In my intro to this song I wrote it won't be much of a succes. Well, I noticed that is the case. People might think I was having fun at the expense of the target group. Although that is not at all the case, I knew that making this song this could happen. So no whining on my part, just keep going. Hans, great production, and yes, that bass REALLY pops! Also love your harmony vocals and whatever FX you're using on them. That's a neat sound. David makes the points I might make about the topic far more eloquently than I can, so I'll just leave it at that. I do appreciate your thoughts on corporate responsibility. That's another complicated topic. Always enjoy listening to your music, looking forward to your next! Hi Ron, I don't use much fx on my vocals. Just an eq and compressor for vocals (in general) from Native Instruments, a reverb and delay from Fabfilter and that's it. So thanks for that. And you joined David C in his comment on the topic, so I would recommend you to read what I wrote to him (post above this one). This is not the case, I meant state-/ corporate responsability AND learn to overcome the shame yourself, by accepting who you are (last part of the song/video). But of course I can't describe all issues about obese in a song from 4 minutes, that also has the intention of being a bit joyful. I like the sense of humor you guys have  Good work from both of you, good lyrics, good band, good bass. Marty's vocals could be a bit louder in some places, but overall it was a very enjoyable listening experience. Wish there was an "un-see" button for the video though  Hi Brain, thanks for this. But Marty wasn't singing. I did all of that. Marty played the bass and was laughing loud, but not in the mike. I am not experienced enough to build 'unsee' buttons in YT, or videos that can do it themselve. Will you help me with that? Or... go to my SC page! Catchy rock song, very nice arrangement with usual Hans surprises. And Marty's bass has enjoyably fat sound Great work with the rolling bassline. Kind of neutral and descriptive story, but "I'm no more ashamed" is a good positive way to resolve it. And excellent video, it had many funny moments, like the fat statue and Napoleon. And I got hungry watching those pizza slices  I think I need some more fat, because I'm freezing outside so easily  Janne Ha Janne, that is indeed one of the 2 points I wanted to make in the song. The rest was a brief description of the sensitivities involved in this topic. Have you seen me in one of those photo boards (appears last in the bottom center)? The one with the sunglases and the grey hair... Thanks for your nice comment! Hope you all have a very nice day today, Hans

YAY!! Great news, Ronnie. When I saw the title I thought, Hmmm, good song title, but odd. Then I thought, Wait, it's a message. Better yet. So good to hear --or rad-- those words. So happy for you both.

Really nicely done. The vocal sounds unreal, not in a bad way, just in a perfect way. One of the all time most beautiful chord progressions, with an interesting history of lawsuits. So it goes...

Definitely soundtrack material. I love what you do with the Swam Sax. The haunting organ is great, plus there's some lovely chord changes in that.

Mike, very cool tune. The baritone guitar and steel really set the tone, and the soloist is perfect. Nicely done!

Another really interesting song lyrically. The piano was the perfect choice, but it's another song, User Showcase-wise, which I fell would be better longer with a cool solo in the middle. You're certainly a prolific lyricist. Well done.

Groovy blues and a great mix. I'd love to know which Greek word gets translated into 'Ghost' as I always shy away from that and prefer 'Holy Spirit'. A blues song I wrote in the 70s begins "I woke up this morning like they do in those other blues songs"!

Thanks for your amazing responses, Floyd, Mario, Janice & Bud! The organ solo is another one in which I had to edit together 2 separate generations to get the dynamic effect I needed. I find I'm having to do that more often, particularly with guitar solos so as to not have the same phrases repeating in different instrumentals, though in this on I only needed the one generation. The harmonica solo is also a hybrid of 2 regenerations.

Nicely done James. I have to admit to being trepidatious because of the lack of plural agreement in the 1st line, (There're thousands of songs around just like these). Cool that you've based the song on a strong analogy. Well done.

Thanks to all who listened and commented on my first song. This Song began life as an up tempo Rocker but somehow morphed into a plodding Folk Ballad. How does that happen?

Hi, Dan. I like the song! The intro didn't work for me. But that's probably just me - it was OK once, but repeated? And again at the interlude? Oh, no... The song builds nicely. The harmonies are nice, but a some of intervals emphasized the synthy-ness of the vocals, like "I know he loves me" at 2:56. Then again, in a world of auto-tune, that's probably a feature and I'm just an old man shaking his fist at the clouds. The "oohs" and "aahs" are really nice. Piano fills sound good, and the mix is excellent. It feels a bit long, but not as long as it actually is, which is good. Nice work, as usual. David...thanks for your thoughts and comments...I always appreciate your technical insights and especially now that I'm working with the vocaloids...I took your advice and shortened the intro to one time around..it cut 16 seconds off and brought me under 5 minutes (that's rare!)...thanks for taking the time to give me some thoughtful comments...I appreciate it...Dan

I love the dark mood you create with both the lyrics and the really good choice of instruments. I think this is my new favorite song of yours. Well done! Thanks, B.D. I’m a bit surprised that so many like this song, as dark as it is. On the other hand, Leonard Cohen went much darker….

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."
