Thanx Dan, but I'm not sure that I am a MIDI master. Yes vocal tracks can be converted to MIDI, see my answer in the other thread.

Thanx Bob for listening and commenting on this little tune. I appreciate it.

I think there's some irony of asking an AI assistant about the future. After all, ChatGPT is little more than a program that predicts what word is likely to come next, trained on what people on the Internet have written. It's a bit like asking someone to write a paper, and they use the first 10 results from Google as their research.

When I want twang I tune the whole guitar down 2 half steps. Those strings get nice and loose and twangy.

Thanks B.D.Thomas, My intention is not to improve the synthetic voice track but to find a real good singer to perform this song.

Glad you liked it! Janice’s vocals definitely fall in the Karen contralto range. J&B

@Rob Helms Thanks for your comment. This is the "All tracks are equal statement" from PG. All the 24 tracks (8 main tracks and 16 Utility tracks) have same capabilities. You can generate RealTracks, RealDrums, MIDI SuperTracks, Loops, etc. on any track. Styles can be made using up to 24 tracks. You can edit audio on any track, not just the Audio and Utility tracks. @ AudioTrack Thanks for your action. I'd hoped for a comment from PG but let's hope that it will be sorted

Re: Where is the Style Enable/Disable tick box located please? berntd 05/05/24 09:14 PM Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Hello and thank you, I got it now but will I get it again in a few weeks time> Hmm... Having that tick box under the Style dropdown arrow next to the picker would have made a lot of sense. @Joseph Land, I saw that in the manual before posting but it is really useless since it never mentions where/howto enable/disable. In my case, the style needs to be disabled when importing audio and adding beat lines etc when using the Audio Chord Wizard. Best regards Bernt

Drugs are bad, they had me on so many causing so many side effects, they said you can't stop taking them or you will die, I had enough and stopped taking them and was ready to go home... that was 11 years ago. Well at least you got a lot more features in Biab and BBPlugin now that you would not have had if they were right, If I kept taking the drugs I would not be here now ! try critical thing on that one.

I understand your question better now. I’m not experienced with the plug-in. There is a user forum here for the plug-in and I think you should post there. The answer may be that the plug-in doesn’t allow this, in which case you can make a feature request. But I don’t know.

Re: Do you copyright your songs before showing it to producers? Guitarhacker 05/04/24 05:58 PM Forum: Songwriting Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Back to what I said.... you have a choice to make. 1. Spend money for the legal way where you'll not be in line to collect money and in fact no one will recoup a single dollar. (dumb plan) 2. Post them illegally and still make no money. (sketchy, risky, and highly debatable/unethical plan) The reality of this is that you will make very little if any money from this. So spending hundreds of dollars makes absolutely no sense at all. I have well over 100 songs on publicly viewable sites. People can buy the download. I've never gotten a single check from that. My money comes from my songs that are playing on TV and in films. I'm not shopping for a private jet yet, but it does come in a check from BMI.

Just by the way, as it might be useful here, there are some BIAB 'timebase' options to allow half-time, double-time and triple-time. The manual has details.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
