SoundCloud: In My Heart
This original song uses an older BIAB STYLE that I like a lot. Nearly all of the tracks are MIDI, but have been updated with corresponding RTs from later iterations of BIAB. I kept the MIDI tracks that translated well into what I was trying to do and replaced others with RTs that I liked wherever possible. This was a "challenge song"...someone bet me I couldn't write a hot love song...OK...it was a girl.  Anyway, not being one to shy away from a challenge I put my heart into it and this is what came out. I suppose it's my tip-of-the-hat to Donna Summer; there are whispered lyrics here and there. My vocals and lead guitar, a lush and lovely Fender Subsonic Telecaster, baritone electric. Thanks for listening, Bob

Very nice Bob!! I really love the feel of this one. You've got a great style! Not sure if you realized your opening lines are the same as those from "I can't make you love me". I've inadvertently done the same thing before. Great tune! Take care. Greg

This is such a nice combination of a 90s ballad and a Next Big Thing- (Vince Gill) like country song.
Love the baritone and the guitar solo work. Professionally sung too.
Rob.

I love it, the guitar work on this made me tingle! And what a vocal. Oh, and the changes were a delight, especially the little pause before the vibrato guitar parts. You're a master of the hook!

Bob, great work! Vocal is top notch along with guitar work! But what I noticed was the care put into the background (strings)they really carried the song along. Thanks, Torrey

I've inadvertently done the same thing before. Great tune! Take care. Greg Yeah...Bonnie Rait got those from ME. Anyway, that's my story. I think I've heard those same lines in a Clapton song or something similar. Popular mood lines, apparently. LOL Thanks for listening, Bob

Hi Bob Buford, Really nice lyrics I like them! MIDI can sound quite good! Very bright sounding song indeed. Good job! Thanks, Joe. We learned to do a lot with MIDI before there was RT in BIAB. Still works for a lot of tracks I think. Thanks for listening, Bob

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.
