I wrote this back in 2011 as part of the 5090 challenge, It is from the perspective of Jesus speaking. When I mixed it originally the bass was way to heavy, so much so that when I performed it live at a church with subwoofers under the floor of the stage I could actually feel the bass all over. So much bass that it caused the cd to skip. I have remixed it and tamed the bass. Comments are welcome

The real tracks are
368 Acoustic Strum
1003 Acoustic Rock FP
1036 Electric Bass Pop
Real Drums Nashville ev16^Hihat, Hihat O

The strings are midi #49 strings

Verse
I am going to Jerusaleum
to lay My body down for you
I will take the whip, take the spit
so you can be made new
I will let the nails
rip through My hands and feet
I will be lifted up
so you can see just how much I love you
in My arms

Chorus
In My arms
you will find peace
when the storms that you are facing
in your life just will not cease
you can lay your burdens down
when your life is upside down
you will find the rest you need
for your life
in My Arms

Verse 2
In this life will be troubles
I told you that before I went away
but I promise if you trust Me
there will be a better day
just hold on and you will see
I will stand with you
throughout the storm
I will lift you up
in My arms

Repeat ChorusX2

Bridge
when this life has ended
you will see Me face to face
you will rest forevermore
in My arms
in My arms

In My Arms

Hi Robert. Good one! Vocals, as always, are outstanding. I have had that experience with bass a couple of times...Generally it happens when I am listening to one of my songs in the car. For some reason I dont pick it up on the earphones.

Robert,

Beautiful song. Terrific melody! Your best vocal, ever...

Nice arrangement. Like Bob said, the strings hit a little hard each time they come in - a subtle swell there would be nice... they also end a bit abruptly the first time - could use a slow fade there bleeding into the following vocal. Everything else is set in nicely.

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!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
