My "band" is Band in a Box (BB) Here are 12 reasons why I like BB.
(1) my band can play more than just rock, country, blues, in fact they can play "any" style available.
(2) my band is more than just guitar, bass, piano, drums, in fact they can play any instrument from Steel guitar to Trumpet to Strings.
(3) my band doesn't have to rely on 3 & 4 chord specials (like the old days), in fact they can come up with really interesting chord progressions.
(4) as band leader I don't have to have extensive music theory, in fact it's me learning from them; my band.
(5) I don't have to stick to common keys, in fact my band can play (for variety) in all keys.
(6) I've learn to appreciate other music like folk, gospel, funk, soul and yes even jazz, thanks to my band.
(7) I don't have to worry about arguments between members, my band gets along with everyone.
(8) I don't have to worry about someone not knowing their part, in fact my band expertly knows how to play their instruments.
(9) I don't have to worry about scheduling a Practice time, my band is willing to play any time of the day.
(10) I don't have to worry about creating original songs; my band can not only create new arrangements, but melodies too.
(11) I can take my band with me anywhere, whether it be a laptop, iPhone, iPad etc.
(12) a quote from an ABBA song - "thank you for the music", I applaud PG Music for Band in a Box.

So........ what exactly are you trying to say?
I agree....
BiaB flat out ROCKS!!!
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

soolan,
You started a nice thread.....
Just a dumb sample of the simple joys PG tools can bring. Our grown son and wife got a new puppy name Jax. He commented was stupid name, thought "Dog" was better.
But Banjo fan he is...
Took one of the bluegrass sytles, added Banjo solo to it and bamn(with a little fx), nice little happy ditty for Jax_demo.
They were both tickled about the song.

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."
