A beautiful love song of the classical style waltz. Another version was also uploaded, which is based on the same melody but is of 4/4 beat and the pop style. I hope you like the both versions.

The original version:
https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/with-you

Another version:
https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/with-you-another-version

******* Summary *******
For the original version:
The following two MIDI styles were merged into the song.
-WLZSOFT.STY (Waltz Soft - Slow Smooth Waltz ()
-EMERALD.STY (Emerald - Slow, Peaceful 3/4 Orc)

SONAR X3 was used to assign the VST instruments to the MIDI tracks and to merge two styles into the song.

For the another version:
Style is _80SPOPM.STY (80s Medium Pop w/ Acoustic Piano)
RealTracks in style: 1255:Bass, Electric, PopShiningA-B Ev 120
RealTracks in style: ~2263:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm 80sPopMedium Ev 120
RealTracks in style: ~543:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Dreamy Ev 120
RealTracks in style: 1278:Synth Pad, PopUplift Ev 120
RealDrums in style: NashvilleEven8^1-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride

SONAR X3 was used to assign multiple VST instruments to the melody track.

HiroshiK,

both versions are beautiful but if I had to choose the 3/4 would win, but only just.

A good mix on both.

Hi Hiroshi,

I prefer the 3/4 version. Very melodic and
a nice arrangement.
Enjoyable listen on both.

Hiroshi,
This has a lovely melody - the waltz just shades it for me also.
Nice production on both.

Alyn,

Thank you for your listening to both versions and giving me back your feedback. I am glad you like both of them.

I myself like both versions. They are so different that each has its own attractive points. If I am asked which one I like better, however, my answer would be the classical waltz version as you do. This is why I gave the title without "(Another Version)" to it.

As some others have said, I like the original version better. I think the instrumentation does a better job with the pretty melody, and the time signature is more flattering to the melody as well. Very, Very Nice Music!! Take care. Greg

Greg,

Thank you for your very positive comment. I am happy you like the original version so much. I also think the melody fits to the classical style waltz much better.

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.
