For about last three months I have had a pinched nerve that caused my fretting hand's little finger to go numb and totally useless. Thus my guitar playing has been to a bare minimum. It just started to get better so I played this jam. I wasn't going to post it but a couple of friends said that I should so here is that jam.
BiaB style = Visions1 - Dreamy New Age
I deleted the bass and drums. I kept the piano, changed the guitar to bells and the string I modified to better fit the song. The drums are from Groove Monkee MIDI loops and also modified. I am playing the guitar and fretless bass.
I hope you like it for what it is.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Sounding pretty danged good to me! As you know, I, too,have left hand issues. Focal Dystonia is a nightmare for musicians and authors (I also write novels, so my puter keyboard gets a real workout).
A nice arrangement and selection of tracks. That was a real pleasure to listen to. Glad you listened to your friends! Very nice, indeed! Wishing you the best with thand and all else.
Sorry to hear about that, Mario. I also experienced this on one of my fingers a long time ago. I'm afraid you have to take some time off, but something tells me, you are probably not going to do that (neither did I back then) and eventually it disappeared.
This track however is rather soothing

Great work on this, Mario Sorry to hear about your hands - hopefully you've have full functionality again soon! I really liked the arrangement on this, the song has a really nice flow to it.

Thanx Rob. I did take about 3 months off of serious playing. I could use my other three fingers but it was different. I didn't play much as I didn't want to get into any bad habits. How in hell did Jean "Django" Reinhardt do it!
Thanx for listening.

Great job, and thanks for sharing!
Thanx Deryk. I have about 95% back and I should be to 100% in a few days, I hope.

Mario, once again you have put together a very interesting sounding track! You always blend together some great sounds! I really liked the tone on that guitar! Thanks, Torrey

Thanx Torrey.
It isn't often that you hear a non-distorted guitar on the radio anymore. A lot of the time I like a clean clear guitar tone.

Sounds good, Mario! It seems several of us "old folks" around here have had some problems with our hands lately. While I am not nearly as old as you, I have had some issues with my hands as well. As you get more feeling and strength, keep doing what you can do. Your music is a gift, not only to you, but to all of us here who care about you.
Keep it up, young man!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
