This is Gospel tune that I wrote A while back, and though I have sung it in public many times this is the first attempt at recording it.

Take A Chance On Me

Let me say this to the masters at PG music. I have been using BIAB since Windows 3.1, and for many years I used it for demos to take into the studio with me. This new level that you have taken BIAB to has opened a lot of possibilities that were not there before. I take my hat off to all who have contributed to the new versions of BIAB and Real Band. I have three grandsons who are outstanding musicians and they all were blown away with what could be accomplished with these programs.

Thanks Scott,
I thought of you when I was recording this. Your guitar styling would have been a perfect addition to this one. Thanks again.

Thanks Tom,
Judging from the length of song titles on yours and several of the other members on this forum, I'm going to have to get it in gear just to catch up. You are most appreciated.

We love going out to Fort Pickens and just spending the day enjoying the water, the waves, and the white sand.

They're working on fixing the road out there so it doesn't flood so much, so you may find it much nicer when you get back down here.

Another really cool song!! Very live sound! It has a very natural sound like an LP from the 50's. I love the angle that you chose as a writer. With that title, it sounds like a plea to a woman. Very clever and refreshing idea for a gospel song. Great stuff again!! Take care. Greg

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."
