I gotta slap this one on ya'll while it's still hot. It Is a country waltze called "Banjo Waltze" That I wrote. I am barely slipping it by with using BIAB because all I used from BIAB (You are gonna think I'm corny) is the virtual drumset which I looped and punched into the recording (I used the side of the snare and some center and the bass drum.) It is the thump bang, thump bang you hear or( or maybe it's more of a bump chick, bump chick. The timing is a bit off but hey it could sound live, right? I did the vocals and the banjo is actually me picking out a melody. (However the banjo I my variax set on the banjo position.) And the acoustic guitar is also me on my variax set to acoustic guitar low in the back ground brought in on the first dubbing with the vocals. The banjo I picked out on the second dubbing. This song is a for fun song... https://soundcloud.com/countryjammer/banjo-waltze

This is an excellent use of BIAB. It is so much to just put up a few instruments add a style click play and play to your hearts content. Add an acoustic maybe a fiddle or a pedal steel and let her rip.

You can't get more live than this. This sounds like a front porch jam session that was recorded after one too many sips of Jack Daniels!

I think if you clean this up and keep a steady beat you would have a real winner on your hands. But this was OK as you said it was a fun song.

I would really like to add a fiddle into the mix on this song. I can remix it later and try to get it through the box.. I can't play fiddle, even though I have two of them. So I will probably use real tracks in the future to work one in.

I played acoustic guitar in the background on the first overdub.
It was clear until I added the drums and the scratching record effect. It seems to have gotten lost, although I can still hear it in with the banjo.

This is a really neat tune smile As others have said, it sounds incredibly live. It almost sounds like an improv tune. I like how it has a lot character to it, and how raw it sounds it.

Thanks for sharing!

I have to agree that it does sound like a live jam session. I think although you feel it just passes for the "using Band-in-a-Box" requirement, I think it's still a very interesting use of the program. smile
