Music of Our Hearts - http://sclk.co/s816o5

Hopalong Cowgirl - http://sclk.co/s818et


I met Cheryl Aranda at Jai Joseph's Songwriter's workshop at the CNN building on Sunset Blvd. At the time my writing partner and I were producing our demo's at my home studio, trying to save the expense of having then done professionally. Cheryl volunteered to help us out by singing on a couple of songs that required a female vocal. Cheryl was a beautiful and talented woman, as well as a devoted wife and mother. She used her talent to express the joy of her religious faith. Cheryl passed away on June 27, 2009. You can read her LIFE LEGACY here. http://www.guerragutierrez.com/memsol.cgi?user_id=741926

I hope you enjoy the beauty of her voice on these songs.

Her album "Looking for the lightning" is here - http://www.mtv.com/artists/cheryl-aranda/discography/

Hopalong Cowgirl- This is the second of two songs sung by the late Cheryl Aranda. This song was inspired by my being the father of two "Hopalong Cowgirls".

Both songs were recorded in or around 2001, using BIAB midi files from country crossover or hhop styles. The midi sounds were generated by a Roland JV-1010 with a Country Sounds expansion card. Cubase sequencer. Roland digital recorder.

Thanks Joe - can't remember if the guitar was played live or it was a midi track?

Sad indeed! She made the world a better place. I didn't realize she had past until I set out to post these songs.

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.

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."
