I guess I can somewhat pass this for "educational" (as opposed to blatant self-promotion), for the concept of this youtube playlist is all about how useful BBox is for trying out different arrangement ideas, so I used well known songs to further that point: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsn-Cu_2WJA7CO73kab6B-eIW-ADj0nvrThe videos only use the program's own "graphics" (if you can even call it that), the whole thing created & put together straight from the Box. On the positive side of that, you could say this actually helps with that whole "educational" aspect of them, for they reveal all the many chord changes & choices I made to suite each arrangement. p.s. I'm noticing now that all my previous posts & submissions to this place went into one thread by mistake, but I don't have the power to move them (in case some moderator spots this and can fix). My bad

Hi Icelander, Thank you for sharing this! - Its great to see great classical pieces broken down to help understand their progressions. - I like your rendition of Prelude in Em well done!
Cheers,
Joe

Hi Icelander, Thank you for sharing this! - Its great to see great classical pieces broken down to help understand their progressions. - I like your rendition of Prelude in Em well done! I had a lot of fun doing these, so I'm glad you liked them. That prelude was particularly tricky because I didn't use any BBox song as template (I haven't even checked if it's included), but opted to transcribe the chords by hand from sheet. And then jazzing those chords up went well beyond the automated way, as I'm sure people will notice by looking closer at those chords (I haven't used this many flat & sharp 5ths in my life!). Always such a treat & honour to receive acknowledgement from staff, thank you

Ha. Finally the 'penny's dropped' as we say in England. I hadn't realised you were in the BIAB family until I saw this. I guess I'm a slow learner... Thanks for your kind words about my playing. You may enjoy this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36Xmktu6af4

Yes, I'm afraid I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to mentioning my usage of BBox up front (outside this place, of course), mainly to avoid those pesky "but you didn't really do anything!" haters you'll particularly find on youtube. You're quite welcome to those "kind words", as you call it. They were earned and deserved! Ta back for this latest clip. Even if it hasn't anything to do with BBox then, as a member of a choir myself, I did indeed like it a lot - Cheers

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."
