NEW! Styles Set 44... Unplugged 2 (requires Band-in-a-Box version 11 or higher) only $29
Styles Set 44 includes twenty great new guitar oriented styles for Band-in-a-Box featuring acoustic and electric guitars. All of these guitar oriented styles have been recorded with a MIDI guitar controller to give them authentic guitar riffs and licks including bends and other nuances of guitar playing. Many of the included styles in this set have a Bluegrass flavor. To recreate the authentic Bluegrass feel in these styles, PG Music has again employed session musician Marty Cutler to assist us with this project.
The 3/4 Bluegrass Slow Waltz style included in this set has 5 instruments and plays a loose, unhurried Waltz style with broad-strummed acoustic guitar tuned to double-drop D tuning (DADGBD). A new 6/8 New Age Country-Folk style adds a new 5 instrument style with an even 8ths feel. The 4 instrument 6/8 World - Unplugged 2 style treats 6/8 meter as 3/4. New Bluegrass styles including Bluegrass Ballad, Bluegrass Rock and Bluegrass Pop add a Ballad style with a medium swing 8ths feel, a Even 8ths Pop-Bluegrass à la AlisonK & TonyT and an up-tempo even 8ths feel à la Burritos and Eagle. 20 great "Unplugged" styles in all!
