For months now, I have been working on the renewal of some of my favorite songs I had created in the past and I think there was room for quality enhancement, rather than creating new songs. I intend to continue it for the time being.

This is the outcome of the work. The original was a light pop song, and I have changed it into the classical style. I am satisfied with the result. I hope you also like it.

Hi HiroshiK

What a delightful version of your song.
Could drift away here.
I also like the idea of working on old songs until they are at their best.

Cheers.

Wow - this is stunning! The music here is incredibly expressive, and really does justice to the title you chose for it. The way it flows and the way all the instruments weave together here - simply put, it is beautiful.

You outdid yourself here - thanks so much for sharing this smile

The dialog flows like water down a beautiful valley stream.

It's lovely in all aspects and the mix is impeccable.

It sounds full and lush on our monitors.

I think you have achieved your goal with this!!

Scott,

Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like this version. The tones of the clarinet as well as the flute are my favorites among the D-PRO instruments.

Graham,

Thank you for your comment. I am happy to know you like this classical version. It would be a nice idea to make an album by carefully selecting songs, my friend. I did it for my family and specific friends personally.

Hi Deryk,

Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like this version so much.

Yes, I believe I could express the dialog between the lovers better than the original by using the arpeggio of the harps and the cellos. It is more atmospheric as well.

This song is really strong from the get-go. It definitely feels very romantic, but also private? In a way that only a couple can communicate. I think you really out did yourself with this remake.

Thanks so much for sharing!


Cheers,
Ember

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."
