Song has a good feeling.
I like the character of the vibe on this.

You've got some technical difficulties to overcome but don't abandon this, it's a winner.

Well done! A bit more dry than I would like (or dare wink ).

Nice write, well sung.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Dave,

"Did I say something unforgiving or unfair
to betray the trust I made you doubt was really there?"

When I read that line I thought: 'What a great line, but it's gonna take a good melody line and vocal to make it sing well"

And that's exactly what you did. Throughout the whole song. Simply beautiful in lyric, melody and delivery.

"So Breathe". What a great title to build a song around. And what a great song.

I would like to hear a little more variation in the guitar part, but that's a personal thing. I loved it.

Martin


Music is what feelings sound like.

James, Stefan, Birchwood, Misha, Guitarhacker, Robert, J&B, Peter, CaptainMoto, David, and Martin:

Thanks all for the listen and the comments. I think it’s near unanimous the guitar needs some work. The RealTrack I used was the closest to what worked—but those who have heard the original G/V version don’t care for it, and it doesn’t seem to resonate with those that haven’t. It also required me to play the song at a slightly slower tempo. I’m thinking I need to revisit and perhaps play the guitar piece myself (as I ended up deciding to do on a new song). Let’s see when I have a chance to get back to it.

Very helpful feedback all. Thanks again for the support.

J&B—Thanks for the software recommendation—I’ll look for it!

My best to you all,

Deej

I don't know I missed this one earlier; I'm glad I found it.

Expert compelling vocal delivery that conveys the emotion.

Lyrically, something most of us can identify with.

Beautiful song!

Deej,

Somehow I missed this one. This has been arranged in such fine fashion! I love that chorus and especially that minor chord is so effective! A great ballad! Thanks, Torrey

Ezekiel and Torrey,

Glad you liked the tune despite the production challenges. Something I’m going to give another go at some point, but good to know it works well enough as is to enjoy to some degree. Thanks much for the listen and support.

Regards to you each,

Deej

Hi Deej,

I love the ambience that this arrangement creates. It's beautiful. Your vocals are outstanding and the very open and airy backing frames your voice so very well.

There is a great deal of clarity to the sound that I am hearing. Whatever you've done, you've done it so well.

I'm a fan!

All the best,
Noel

Noel,

Very kind comments as always. It’s one of my favorite songs that I’ve written, but the more I listen to this production, the less I like what I’ve done with it. I’m going to have to give it a redo at some point. But I’m glad you liked it as is.

All my best to you,

Deej

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.

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."
