outside of setting the bar kinda high for the rest of us it was great

i liked that i could hear your guitar picking something i've noticed is not always true with acoustic sets that use backing tracks

i also like the black backdrop something i'd have to consider to hide the clutter

Ha, ha -- so true! Good set. I would bounce it up to 5 songs minimum. You had a good audience going.

The only thing and Mike mentioned it too on the chat was that the lighting was just a bit bright.

I wasn't able to read any thing on the chat screen... I was already scrambling just trying to hold onto the confounded pic, and trying to read would have been sensory overload.

Regarding the light.. would you believe the only light in the room was from the computer monitor??? Everything in the room is dark to absorb light and not reflect it... oh wait... must have been my bald spot... its the only reflective surface left... and I can't wear a hat and headphones at the same time ;-)

Did you do those tracks in BIAB? Color me and my husband impressed big time.


none of my trax are COMPLETELY Biab. They're frankenstein-trax, made from combinations of Real trax, MIDI, my own playing and also snippets from the actual recording where I can phase them in seamlessly. VEHICLE was a commercial track in its entirety... although there's nothing in it that RealBand couldn't do if you're willing to manually sequence the horns.

Oh and put a stickum on that pick LOL just kidding.

believe it or not, I had velcro on the pick and on my thumb... but my thumb got sweaty and you already know how that worked out.

It bugs me to have flubbed solos that I know just because I can't hold the pick. I originally thought the weakness came from a pinched nerve, but its starting to look more like some kind of palsy. If that turns out to be the case... well.. never mind.

FIVE???
but... the 60 year old bladder has its limitations...
wink

I scheduled a Thursday performance at noon again... I'll try for 5 and pick songs that don't have solos that require me to maintain solid control of the pick. The solos USED to be my strength, but now they're a liability.

Life's a bummer and then you die, I guess.

Pat, I didn't catch how many viewers you had. Did you? Excellent performance nonetheless.

There were at least 11.

How about learning to pick using a thumb pick. They can be cumbersome at first, put with practice, it could work...

Don,
I forced myself NOT to look at the chat screen... and now that I see who all was in the audience I'm glad I didn't know or I would have been even more self conscious than I already was. I consider all of the people who have replied in this thread to be heavy hitters, people whose abilities I bow down to, people who intimidate me with what they know and can do.

Good idea... I have many, don't know why it didn't occur to me to use one. But the real problem wasn't dropping the pick, it was lacking the strength in my hand to pick up another one.

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."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:

Friday, March 29: 8-4
