Recent recording. BIAB/RB Bossa/Nylon/Quartet my favorite guys with sync pad strings:
Meet you all in Loveland!

https://soundcloud.com/carolyne-swayze/loveland

LOVELAND
I’m taking a trip to Loveland
A place far away from here
They say kisses there, have a certain savoir-faire
and laughter fills the air.

I got myself ticket to Loveland
Where meadows of lilacs are always in bloom
I’m on my way to Loveland
I hope to see you there real soon.

I’m taking a trip to Loveland
A place far that’s far, far away
Made a reservation, planning a great vacation
Maybe I’ll even stay.

I’m gonna wait for you in Loveland
So hurry, and don’t you delay
We’ll fall in love in Loveland
And have a Lover’s Holiday.
We’ll fall in love in Loveland
And have ourselves a Lover’s Holiday

Loveland sounds like a nice place! cool - give my regards to Broadway, while you're on the road wink

p.s. This tune & style is just begging for a mellow sax solo!

Carolyne, welcome back!
As usual, you master this musical style, exceptional in fact. I heard a bit of Manhattan Transfer in there somewhere. Top delivery, yet again...

What were the styles / tracks. The strings were really nice

Very nice and mellow in the good sense.
As Billie Holiday fans we fell right into
this groove.

Enjoyed it.

excellent,
cool mellow singing, I love the breathless, intimate quality to your vocals.

A friend has an acoustic-ish jazz quartet, him on his mini set of drums, an astounding female double bass player, who is dwarfed by her bass, a complete lunatic on piano and his latest girlfriend on vocals. You could guest for them and blow their socks off!!

really enjoyed

Thanks to all for listening. I am constantly amazed by the PG Music product, without which I would never be able to do what I do, at least not without a great deal more effort. This forum, along with its talented users, and the PG Music musicians is remarkable!

I actually thought about that, but decided not to have an instrumental solo. Having a sax working under my vocal would have been too much going on for my taste. You are right, Bossa Nova and sax are like peanut butter and jelly thanks to Stan Getz smile

I was excited to see you back with a new post. You didn't disappoint. So smooth and mellow. Thanks for posting and I enjoyed this a lot.

No matter what we throw at BIAB, everybody has their own unique taste for music and BIAB handles it with ease. The User Showcase is so much better than any radio station and offers the most variety found anywhere.

And I absolutely agree with you on that! What I meant was adding an extra 'part a' right after the first 'part b', with just the sax, never the two of you together. As the song barely clocks at 2 min. 45 sec. there was certainly room for it.
But that's a very small "personal taste" niggle and of course I loved the whole thing...as I always do with your music cool

Dear Ms. Carolyne:

"Loveland" is as mellow, as romantic, and as warm-feeling as a sunset viewed through a glass of chilled red wine. You sing your lyrics as though it was the first time you ever told anyone how you felt about being in love. It's just the sweetest thing I've heard in the bossa nova genre in this User's Forum.

You've won my musical heart with this one!

Most respectfully and sincerely,

LOREN

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!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
