Robert,

I was out for a couple weeks and missed this one! Very nice song. Good message. As to the mix, I could not hear the bass at all. I am listening at my office on buds (not the kind you drink - the kind you put in your ear! ) Also, the music break near the end is a little abrupt.

But again, a good song!

Hi Robert,

Every time I hear your latest song, what strikes me most is how professional sounding your work has become. This one is no exception. Your writing continues to flourish and each song pushes that proverbial "bar" higher and higher. Really enjoyed the listen.

All the best,
Noel

Robert,


Powerful song and story, and so true.
My brother lost his life to drugs at 19. What a sad waist.

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."
