Posted By: FirstBassman Can We Look Into The 'English Ballad' Thing Again? - 05/06/09 10:01 PM

I thought we had it worked out last time:


http://www.pgmusic.com/ubbthreads/showfl...true#Post221952



The result, I thought, was that the infamous traditional English ballad styles that I was looking for were contained in a package called “100 Folk Songs.”

But when I contacted PGM, trying to somehow get my hands on them, they said that 100 Folk Songs are midi files and not BiaB Styles.

Can someone who has them, please list a couple of specific file names so we can try and track this down?

Thanks.

I have a folder in my BB folder named, "FOLKSONG".

Inside that folder are four more folders, "BRITISH" "CHILDREN" "IRISH" and "SCOTTISH".

Each of the folders contains BB songfiles.

They load their own styles, which came with them. For example, I just loaded the song, "Sot022" from the Scottish folder and the style that loads with it is named, "SCOT10.STY".

This FOLKSONG folder came as an extra add-on with the MegaPak a few versions back. I don't know if it is still available now or as a separate or not.

Well, that's pretty specific.

Thanks Mac!

I came across sets of Folk Midi files for a number of Nationalities on the WEB some while ago and these can be opened in BIAB. The English Folk tunes were contained in a folder englmidi at http://www.net-web-design.com/midi/english/englmenu.htm.
