Thanks, you're very kind.  It's probably time to do some more live recordings as I tend to edit and change everything like sound patches etc I have over 70 songs now in my repertoire! - other changes are due to memory loss!

The very first tune I did using band in a box, 9 years ago. I had a 25 year break from playing the accordion due to tendonitis and my wife decided to buy me a small midi keyboard. I soon got bored with the sounds and downloaded band in a box. I was Messing around with a melody and my wife said that it would sound lovely on the accordion. It came out of it's case and Farewell to Kintail was born. Kintail is a beautiful part of the western highlands where my Granny lived. The tune has since been recorded by several others https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqSbY6dGEMk

It's funny in that I just uploaded a BB song to facebook. It is totally composed in BB using all real instruments. I was going to put it up for a listen by the members but I first had to convert it to a video file before I could upload it to FB. If any of you would like to critique it just Click on this spot and it'll open the file. Don't pay attention to the flying. I was just messing with a quad copter. It was short enough and would upload to FB. Thanks,

Hi Josie,
Go the the "I Just Heard Band-In-A-Box on Youtube" forum and scroll all the way to the bottom.
Under "Display Options", check that "Show Topics" is set to 'FROM ALL DATES'.
I've noticed that sometimes this settings seems to get reset to something different.
Hopefully this will solve the problem.
All the best,
Noel

Thank you Noel! I'm on my little tablet with small keyboard and hit by accident. It's back to normal now thanks to you.  Virtual hug.

The top twenty nine songs were recorded using BIAb as the writing tool &/or for at least one instrument... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuYTP_AbZAJrzz9ac-_5dhQ/videos

Looks like there hasn't been a post to this thread for a while so I thought I'd revive it with a recent post from my Lot2Learn Jazz Instructional Channel on YouTube. I used BIAB to create the backing track and then recorded a Rhodes piano solo over it. I then used a screen capture program to capture the notation of my solo as displayed in BIAB to superimpose over a video of my playing. The "Split-Hand" feature in BIAB is extremely useful for this and it helps my viewers visualize the notes I am playing and hopefully helps them in their learning. Enjoy! And feel free to ask me any questions! LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMN2L68KXo4

That's a nice tune, well-played!
I found your main website, but had to do that manually. I couldn't find a link to it from your sales page.
I noticed that your main site is HTTP only. There are a number of web hosts that provide HTTPS certificates for free now. Getting one used to be expensive and a pain in the butt.

=====
Enjoy! And feel free to ask me any questions! Ok, here's one that came to mind straight away - You genuinely use an actual Rhodes? I mean, that sound now days is included on just about every keyboard in existence, but the instrument itself is getting quite rare, hence I wondered.
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
