Hello to all of you. Finally, I've been able to post a new song; I've got a lot of busy time at work and some problems to be on the forum, but now the situation seems to go better. So I can dedicate a little of my time to do that I prefer: playing guitar. Here's a country song I made some times ago: IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROADhttps://soundcloud.com/sergio-guarneri/in-the-middle-of-the-roadSTYLE & BAND Style is _CTRTSEC.STY (Country Wasteland) RealTracks in style: ~539:Bass, Electric, Pop Sw 120 RealTracks in style: ~1550:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CountrySwing Sw 140 RealTracks in style: ~974:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CountrySwingCleanA-B Sw 140 RealTracks in style: ~977:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CountrySwingGrittyA-B Sw 140 RealTracks in song: 1149:Fiddle, Background CountryBoogie Sw 140 (Outside) RealDrums in style: NashvilleSwing8^5-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, HiHat Solo me & my Gretsch guitar.

Hi Sergio,
Nice playing! It has a bit of the sound of a Spaghetti Western movie with modern treatment. Thanks for a real nice listen. We enjoyed it a lot!

Hi Sergio,
Glad to have you back, because you've created a very nice and heavy guitar sound here! The fiddle also works great. This would fit right into a spaghetti western. Very atmospheric! Probably one of your best.

Hi Sergio,
I notice you typically write catchy instrumentals. Do you mind if I make a suggestion? I think you could get more exposure if you added a creative commons attribution license to each of your songs so people who make videos could use them in their projects.
Instrumentals are perfect for setting the mood for a scene, and there is a large demand for such music across the full spectrum of genres.
An attribution license means that in order to use your song, the movie maker has to put your name in the credits. You don't make any money, but it can be a good way to get widespread recognition for your name

Hello, Sergio
Very catchy melody as usual. Nice Playing. As Alan, Di, Rob and Anne-Marie said it has a bit of the sound of a Spaghetti Western movie with modern treatment. By the way, in Japan it is said "macaroni western" instead of "spaghetti western". (Maybe Japanese English?) Very enjoyable listen.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Is that a fiddle I hear? It really livens up the whole piece, but the guitar work is outstanding too and could easily stand on its own.
Keep up the awesome work!
Cheers, Ember

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."
