First, the way I see it is that anyone who wants to post new music has been and is always welcome to post it any time they want to in the Users Showcase. Nobody's going to tell them they think their music sucks because it sounds new. Anyone who actually posts music and even the lurkers know that - it's obvious. So anyone thinking there should be more "new"music - POST SOME.
I agree, but that's not at all what I'm talking about. This isn't about posting or not posting. It's about respecting people.

Second, when I want to check out a new product that has a board "off topic" is NOT where I look to find out how people feel about and use the product. It's the last place I'd go. I'd be looking at the showcase, new users, and the product forum threads.
I would check out the showcase AND the other areas. Younger people are VERY into culture, and what a company AND IT'S CONSUMERS stand for.

Third, I don't get the big deal and why this topic keeps coming up. We keep circling the same tree. There are always going to be people who say they can't stand so and so - who cares - if you like so and so what difference does it make - none - I'm sure I don't like some artists they like old or new.
It keeps coming up because those comments keep coming up. I'm not saying everyone should like the same thing. I'm saying we should be able to be respectful.
There is a HUGE difference between saying "Not my cup of tea" and "you couldn't pay me enough to listen to that $$%#!"
I don't think it's wrong to bring it up.

Let's get real. Start all the new topics, threads and forums you want and if somebody feels like spouting their opinion they are going to do it. Younger people have grown up on social media - they know this. Anybody who hasn't lived off the grid for the past twenty years knows this and is used to it. A civil discusssion is what we already have here. Nobody is cursing anybody out or calling anyone names for liking or not liking any artist or type of music.
Real? People have been cursed out on here at times. I've seen threads removed for it. I would also stay that it is VERY rare and overall pretty civil here.
As far as younger people growing up on social media, yes they are aware how it works. And they move on or create their own if they don't see what they want. Not their own threads, they simply move away from a product entirely.
Again, I don't see anything wrong in asking for respect.
Quote:
Give people here a little credit. We don't need any more eggshells to walk on. This is one of the most civil forums out there. Sure, I'd like if everyone agreed with my taste but they don't. My closest friends from childhood and my husband likes artists I don't.
No eggshells.
Do your closest friends and husband call the music you like "crap" and the like? Honestly asking. Maybe they do.
Quote:
If someone not agreeing with someone else's opinion on musical taste bothers a person that much perhaps a little therapy is in order.
It's not about agreement. I'm not sure how else to say it. It's respect. There is a difference.

TEMPO TANTRUM: What a lead singer has when they can't stay in time.
I would like to take a silent moment and give thanks for the blessings of acceptance and atonement that have been given to us all on this full day of enlightenment just knowing that out of the 6,676 styles on Band in a Box that we have all been using and posting for the last gazillion years, that now we can all absorb the glory of the one true Holiness where acceptance is given to all according to his or her own portion, and that we may raise our heads in the direction from whence a true measurement of grace and class is apportioned to us, and give thanks that we have received acceptance and blessing, and shall no more have to live in shame or fear, because we have met with the Divine Light of the Most Holy One in all fullness of the glory thereof, cleansed of our sins and no longer ashamed of our nakedness.
The light has blinded me, but yea, I know this is what the Lord has desired.
Amen.

Add updated printing options, enhanced tracks settings, smoother use of MGU and SGU (BB files) within PowerTracks, and more with the latest PowerTracks Pro Audio 2024 update!
Download and install this to your RealBand 2024 for updated print options, streamlined loading and saving of .SGU & MGU (BB) files, and to add a number of program adjustments that address user-reported bugs and concerns.
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.
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."
Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
The User Showcase Forum is an excellent place to share your Band-in-a-Box® songs and listen to songs other program users are creating!
There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.
If you'd rather listen to these songs in one place, head to our Band-in-a-Box® Radio, where you'll have the option to select the genre playlist for your listening pleasure. This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.
We hope you find some inspiration from this amazing collection of User Showcase Songs!
