But Dan - you piqued my curiosity about EZDruumer - if I do get it I will wait for the specials, but what does it give me that PG Music does not ?
For programming drum tracks "ITS THE USER INTERFACE". And EZD2 just is so cool and so fun the drums just fly. I still use RealDrums the great majority of the time. They are simple, quick and they sound good. But there are times when you just need to hear specific hits and crashes which RDs are not designed to provide. For years I used Jamstix for those occasions. And I still love to tinker in JS. I had a copy of EZD and it just did not do it for me. But when EZDrummer 2 was introduced early last year, it was a game changer. There are tons of youtube videos on EZD2. Check out the dude with the long beard! He is one of the developers. I think there is even a demo you can download. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnQN3cX4CscEZD2 gets my recommendation for cool factor as well as easy of use, flexibility and great sounds. I know others here use EZD2. Would be nice to hear from them. By the way the more I invest in ToonTrack products the more I appreciate what BIAB actually does. These other products combined with BIAB really do provide value.

Hey all,
While we're in the 'spending money' and 'looking for deals' mode - even more so than usual - how about paid subscriptions for videos and lesson libraries ?
Any great deals there ? And which sites are the best for more advanced players, all of who frequent this site I would put in that category (nothing more disappointing than joining a site and then realizing most of the lessons are very elementary).
I recall perusing the Truefire site recommended previously by one of our own and really being impressed - but never pulled the trigger.
Also - I'm interested not just in guitar, but ALL instruments - I like to doodle with mandolin, banjo, bass, keyboard, and drums,though guitar is my main instrument.

Darn, here is another one I have been looking at for a while. How do I pass up this for $19 usd? http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Vielklang2LEBut wait, LTBB. This is the LE version and yes it at a rock bottom pricing, but ... the LE version "...does not have the ability to edit each harmony sound that it creates including volume, vibrato, midi control, etc." No volume editing of the harmony? And you cannot place the harmony on a track separate from the main vocal? That does not sound good to me.

Joe, I don't know if you've ever visited the groove3.com website but it's definately worth a visit. The site has an "all access" monthly subscription service. I purchased two tutorial series and have been pleased with both purchases. They really put a lot of effort into having well written scripts and seamless video editing. Each subject is broken down into about three or four minute segments so subject material is easy to find and understandable to watch.

Hi, Although all of the above is true an easy workaround for "And you cannot place the harmony on a track separate from the main vocal?" Just highlight and delete the main vocal line or desired harmony nodes in Vielklang2LE and export the rest. Been using this for a while now and it does produce workable harmonies.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
