Hi All,

This is a new song titled "Feeling of Love". It is a Light Pop song.

https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/feeling-of-love

For this song, I used two MIDI styles;

CRISTINA.STY (Cristina - Top 40 - Rock 16th) for the first four parts,
ELTON2.STY (Elton 2 - Ev. 16 ths Rock) only for the last (fifth) part.

I used Sonar as well to reassign VSTi instruments to all of MIDI tracks and to do some final tuning.

I hope you enjoy it.

*****
Just for your information.

This song is one of the twin love songs that share the melody part but have different accompaniment and tempo. The other song is "Unforgettable Love". For this song, I used three RealTracks(_HAPNO85, _80SPOPM and _HEPNO85).

https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/unforgettable-love

I would be very happy if you could listen to it as well.

Hi Hiroshi,

I listened to both of them and like "Unforgettable Love"
better. It's quieter in the arrangement and suits better
to a love song.
A little hint: I like the Aah sounds, but they end unnaturally abruptly. I suggest to add a little reverb. The same refers to the strings.
Enjoyable listen though.

I agree with Guenter. The string samples sound like good quality but in a concert hall, the sound always has a trail and the reverb creates this effect. Both songs are very nice!! Take care. Greg

Hi Guenter,

Thank you so much for listening to both of my new songs. I am happy to know you enjoyed both of them. I agree that the arrangement for "Unforgettable Love" is more suitable to a love song. I like it, of course. This time, however, I wanted to create something not of my usual style, so I created "Feeling of Love" as well. In that sense, I am satisfied with the outcome. To me, "Feeling of Love" is a love song for very young people whose hearts are throbbing with their feelings of love. When I listened to it, I could feel as if I went back to my teenage smile

Thank you also for your kind suggestion about 'reverb'. I have used it in several cases (the most typical case was for the voice of Mew), but I did not use it this time. I am going to try it and replace the file on Soundcloud some time later.

Hi Greg,

Thank you for your comment. I am so glad you listened to both of my songs and enjoyed them. As for the reverb, please refer to my reply to Guenter's kind comment.

A really nicely presented song. It had some pleasing directions, with an interesting blend of instruments.

Good effort.

Hi VideoTrack,

Thank you very much for listening my song and giving me your comment. I am happy that you like my effort to create something not of my usual style or to create new color for me by blending unusual instruments such as Vocals.

Hi Hiroshi,

Good work!
The melody works nicely in both versions, but we like the first one best.

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."
