Hey Peter and PG Team, Thank you so much! This is such a special place, and I love it around here! Congrats to all the recipients, and much love to this fabulous community of people!! I will say it the same as I have said it before: PG Music needs to win the Nobel Prize at some point or something just ain't right in Stockholm--or Denmark either. I know they would have to invent a music technology category, but why not???? Maybe some of our our new Swedish and Danish friends can look into the matter.  Thanks again Peter and PG Music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peter and the whole PG Music team, I want to give you a heartfelt thanks for including me in this years recipients. This software is beyond amazing and I will echo others in wishing you could understand the profound impact it has had in my life. I had the floppy disk version on a Commodore 64 that barely worked and have been a faithful user ever since. Congratulations to all the other winners and judging from the talent around here 2024 will be a banner year. Thanks again, Tom

Doctor Peter Gannon and all of your staff at PG Music,
PG Music is the absolute GREATEST!
Thank you all so much.
BIAB is an unique and amazing product which I have been using for over 25 years since the MIDI-only era without RealTracks.
I'm very happy and honored to have been included in 2023 User Showcase Awards.
And… Congratulations to all the other winners.
Best regards.

Congratulations to everyone on the list! I was happy to see over 10% are from Australia and New Zealand, which only has 0.39% of the world's population. Nine from Europe (Finland-2, France-2, U.K.-3, Germany & Netherlands) two from Canada and one from Japan. The rest from the USA, but quite an international list. Shows the worldwide usage of BIAB, and the real winner here is PG Music for creating such a great resource for songwriters.

Thanx Peter and the crew for your generosity and for your outstanding products.I am truly honored to be included with this outstanding group of top notch musicians.
Virtually all of my songs start in BiaB. Your styles are getting better and better year after year.
Thanx again.
OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Wow. Thank you so much for this. I am constantly Amazed by the incredible talent of the people who post their songs on this forum. Congratulations to all the winners. I am so thankful to PG Music for creating BIAB. Its a wonderful tool for Songwriting, Music Production, Education, Performance, and Practice it should be taught in every school in the world. I have been a BIAB user since it's early days, and every year I look forward their upgrades, improvements, new features, and continued development.
Some companies add 5 or 6 new plugins or features and charge hundreds for upgrades, While PG adds 50-60 new features and hundreds of Real Tracks (which by the way are fantastic) and offer fantastic support.
I also thank PG for hosting this user forum. I have found no other place like it that offers valuable honest feedback on songs, on production, and tips.
I try to set aside time from my busy life to listen to as many as I can as often as possible. Thank you.

Band-in-a-Box was and continues to be a musical game changer for us. It has allowed us to explore genres we’ve loved for years but never dreamed we would produce music within. PG Music’s forum community has gained us friendships that go well beyond the use of the product. Yes, Band-in-a-Box is stellar but it is also represented by PG Music team members who are always friendly, knowledgeable and supportive. And the company’s appreciation of its customers is so well illustrated by these awards. Thank you Dr. Gannon and team!!

Dear Dr Gannon and Team,
Thank you so much for including me in this year's awards. I first bought BIAB in 2006. At that time, I was really hesitant and wondered if I was doing the right thing. Now, 18 years later, I can say wholeheartedly that my 2006 decision was the ultimate "best decision" I've ever made. BIAB opened the door to a whole new dimension of music-making for me. In all my years of using the program, I have never once stopped being amazed by its capabilities, and the gold-class service that PG Music has provided. In my experience, there is no better online company than PG Music and no better music-making programs than BIAB/RB. Thank you again!
Congratulations to all the winners! 🥳 🎉 🙂
--Noel

Peter & Team,
Thank you for the generous gift!
BIAB had became a center of song writing process for me. It lets me experiment with many musical styles on the fly, which otherwise would have taken a lot of time, or simply would never happen. The 2024 version has many very neat RD, RT and MIDI tracks and most importantly, now they are well catalogued in the new MTP library, which had been a game changer for me. Same goes for the near instant (and silent Ctrl+ F8) re-generations. My hope is that these newly rolled out features including Track View are only the beginning of a new chapter in BIAB quest. I hope to see these wonderful new features developed to perfection overcoming limitations in upcoming updates/upgrades. Keep up the good work and Thank you!
Misha.

Thank you, Dr Gannon and everyone on the PG Team that brings this amazing product to the world. If you're a songwriter and not using BIAB then you're not reaching your full potential IMHO.
Na zdrowie!
