Hi Janice & Bud,
Thank you! We really appreciate your support.
About the drums, now that you mention it, it does actually has a nice 'dry' sound. Funny that the program makes it possible to mix a 70s soul drum with an, otherwise, totally different arrangement.
Regards,
Rob

Rob and Anne Marie, +1 to what floyd jane says. I would never say on listening to your songs that English is not your main language. Wonderful. The solo is perfect!!! The Harmonies fit so well. Not so much REM but RAM (Rob, Anne Marie)  wonderful Alyn

Hi Ron & Anne-Marie, Got Songsmith downloaded and began playing around with it some last night. Wife heard me doing all a capella vocals (I was using headphones and making nonsense rhymes), she came around to check out what I was up too. High jacked it from me and she stayed in the program till bedtime. Yikes, I may have unleashed the next Lady Gaga !
Thanks for sharing this part of your workflow.

Hi Rob and Anne Marie
Loved the song. The vocals were perfect and the video was interesting (although I did feel a little car sick after a while....lol). The guitar solo really caught my attention. Good job

Hi Alyn, thank you! Well, while singing it may not be obvious, but when I'm using English in conversation, it is  Can do some practicing on this, we're going to London for a couple of days next week. Yes we also very much like the soloist. Gives a sense of speed in the song. Regards, Rob and Anne-Marie

Haha, well we like to hear the results sometime!
The program itself has some limitations though, it doesn't always accurately follow your voice. On the other hand, this is also an upside. This way you will get surprising results.
Playing acoustic guitar notes into the microphone, instead of singing, may give better results.
Here's another cheat: play whatever well-known song, and hold the microphone in front of the speakers. Since it won't accurately reproduce all the chords, you will get another chord progression which can be a good start for a new song.
regards,
Rob

Hi Musiclover,
Thank you!
We're planning on singing The Road on our next gig.
We don't have many though, it's not so easy to get gigs in Holland.
Regards,
R & AM

Hi Joanne, Thanks! We must admit, that while we were busy editing the video we had to stop from time to time  . We played it backwards at half speed. Can you image how we felt, haha. Regards, R & AM

R & M,
I scrolled up the video and just listened after a bit because it was making me dizzy - I'll bet you did have a time editing this one. LOL!
Enjoyed the song very much. Nice delay on your vocal too for that little extra dreaminess like your voice was fading back into the road behind.
Josie

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."
