Dr Gannon, Peter, such a wonderful gesture from a wonderful guy! Your generosity never ceases to amaze me. Your loyalty to your customers along with your five-star customer service places pg music head and shoulders above whomever is in second place. I am left without words adequate enough to express my sincere gratitude to you and your entire crew. Thank you again.

Wow, I really appreciate being among such a great bunch.
Really Peter, all thanks go to you, and your incredible staff. Jeff, Andrew, Rob, and so many more.
I am amazed at what you can do with this software. I am amazed at the amount of enjoyment i gain from it. I am sure many others here are like me, busy life, little time. To have a tool like this to help make a hobby, or vocation so much more fun, not to mention the ease it allows in creativity.
One thing i want to really stress, I have fancier DAW software programs on my computer, bigger names, like Sonar, Reaper, and others, but i hardly ever open them. Between BiaB, and Rb i can get it done.
HP Win 11 12 gig ram, Mac mini Sonoma with 16 gig of ram, BiaB 2025, Realband, Reaper 7, Harrison Mixbus 9 32c , Melodyne 5 editor, Presonus Audiobox 1818VSL, Presonus control app.

Well what a great start to my day. To say I was surprised would be a huge understatement! I would like to echo the comments of Mario, Steve and others regarding not only the excellent product supplied by the guys from PG but the wonderful after sales service and technical back up. Thank you so much! I am also proud and privileged to be sharing the list with such a talented, friendly and helpful bunch of people. Well done to all, and thank you for your help over this past year! Thank you all again Martin - an extremely chuffed Martin. 
Music is what feelings sound like.

Actually Peter the thanks should go to you and the rest of the PGMusic staff. BiaB an extremely useful tool! It has kept me and I’ll bet a lot of other musicians playing and recording. I have learned a lot about musical genres that I couldn’t have explored without it. It is a great learning, practicing, recording and live playing piece of software that just keeps getting better and better.
Then to put the icing on the cake you have set the bar for customer service and satisfaction so high that I know of no other software company can even come close.
Keep up the outstanding work and thank you very much - MarioD
Very well said, Mario.
As a songwriter without an actual 'band', BIAB has enabled me to put 'form and structure and genre' to all my lyrics, in addition to enabling me to explore different possibilities for each of those things.
I really didn't know how I was going to do it before I found BIAB. Now when I do assemble the instrumentalists, my songs are basically ready to go!
The DAWs and the notation programs and the audio editing programs and the MIDI editors and the virtual instruments and FX are all useful tools, but none do what BIAB does.
I just watched "Social Network" last night, and in the end Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook prevailed over the wannabes and parasites because of the obvious excellence of his idea/product, and I couldn't help thinking about BIAB, and how unique and empowering it is.
Great concept, Peter.
These awards are a great idea, even if my songs didn't get one. Congrats to all the deserving winners.

And, while we're on the subject of giving out rewards, a big thank you to all the people on this forum who daily help people like me understand band-in-a-box a lot better. You talk about a help desk, this one is the greatest.

Hi All, Firstly Congrads to the showcase winners. I see the list of winners names but is there a list of the actual winning songs as I would like to listen to them. Not sure how mine own songs compare but it would be nice to get some opinions or even advice from others.
In all the years I have been using biab I had not realised there was a Showcase I have always gone straight to the biab forum mostly looking for a solution to a problem so this is a new discovery for me. Can anyone suggest a free hosting site I can use to store my own songs for others to hear as I don't have my own website or can they be uploaded straight from my PC - I'm a bit green on this. Many thanks. Jeff

Go here: http://www.pgmusic.com/user-showcase/ , sort by the artists' names, find the "winners" and then listen to as many as you wish. I don't think Peter just picked the folks with the "best" songs -- there was other criteria involved. As you go through the songs, you will see different hosting options. I usually use soundclick but reverbnation, soundcloud and others are popular, too.
I hope to hear some of your stuff soon.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
