Thought I'd share this with any 'like minded traddies!' But I think it's a good listen for anyone!

"Bari Sax" -- As in "Baritone Sax"

Now you have me wondering if this is yet another difference in language usage across the pond or the likes?

Anyway, I love the thing that the Bari can bring to a performance, matter of fact I don't thnk a sax section is complete without one.

A great Bari plsyer can provide the bass "animation" that keeps the interest in the performance moving. Well, the old Trombone players who inserted "Tailgating" into the idiom provided that also.

Enjoy,


--Mac

Sorry Mac! I assumed it WAS a Bass Sax that was playing ,.........as Adrian Rollini did with Bix & others ........I was not thinking it could be a Baritone! Regards, Joe G.
Edit. Just checked info it says 'Vince Giordano, bass sax' ??

Looks like a bass sax to me. Was there ever a bass sax made that was in-between a bari and a bass sax? It looks a little smaller than a full sized bass sax. Later, Ray

A bass sax is so big it has to sit in a stand, so if the player is wearing it, it is a bari. I play bari and THAT is heavy enough!!!!

Here you go.

Now, THAT picture is of the true Bass Sax!

one of the reasons the Bass Sax is not so prolific is the sheer cost of the instrument.

Would make a guitar collector blush...

There are different "voices". Contrabass, bass..... the photo I posted was a contrabass. If you want a new one, be prepared to sell your house to get it. I am seeing bass saxes selling for over $20,000. The contrabass I can't even find online.


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

Here's a lot of pics of bass saxes. There are indeed different sizes. Later, Ray

Cheap(er) Bass Sax alternative is to get the Garritan JABB soft synth package and play either on keyboard or a wind controller. Not the real thing, but possibly, the next best thing.

Some, claim even, with keyboard, and laptop, it is still more portable!

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."
