Can anyone suggest a style for Fiddler's Green. I have Mekapak 2018 and I'm not finding a style that I feel suits.

Many thanks

Narayano,

are you referring to Fiddler's Green performers ?

Perhaps you could provide an URL to pinpoint what performance it is exactly you want to emulate so that we may suggest a style ( s ) .

Please excuse me if i got your request all wrong .

Hi Mister Magoo

Sorry for the slow reply - I thought I had posted this but must have forgotten to press the Submit button.

Here is a link to the Dubliners with a vocal version of Fiddler's Green.

I've just ordered the UltrPak upgrade which will arrive tomorrow.

I launched StylePicker and found a collection Celtic styles .

There is a substantial number of Celtic styles .

Once you have done that you can audio audit those to hear and play the one that suits your needs. Of course some adjustments may have to be made to the " suggested " instruments in the style you finally decide to use.


Hope this helps you.

In my reference to audio edit
of a style use Quick play ( hit the green button to play/audition )that use premade chords of a demo...


Although, you could also try Auto chord wizard... (refer to manual for detailed instructions)


Excuse me if you know this...

The body of the song seems to be a 3/4 so look for a slow waltz

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."
