Good afternoon, Robert ...

I loved enjoyed the first half of your comment. The guitar spiraling around in your ears is exactly what where I was once I got the first several measures finished.

I'm very happy you enjoyed it ... thanks for letting me know! best to you. Be safe ...

The chord progression is wonderful as usual.

By the way, does this pink lemonade contain alcohol?
For me, I definitely want to mix gin to it and drink it by the poolside during the summer daytime.
Of course, at that time, while playing this tune.

Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Shigeki ...

I truly appreciate your very nice comments! I'm sure I can find something to spice up the pink lemonade! Sitting by the pool, cool drink in hand, and listening to some music sounds liker a good way to spend some time!

Thank you so much. Take care and please be safe ...

Alan

Alan - I really dug that laid back jazzy pop arrangement. You've got a great groove going with the backing track and that guitar just glides right in there like a nine ball dropping into the corner pocket - swish. Smooth, smart, snazzy.

As fj said: "My rubber stamp comment: YOU ARE SO GOOD AT THIS!!"

A lot of effort doesn't always but in this case it assuredly resulted in a LOT of goodness.

It all sounds great on our monitors. Nice open soundstage.

Excellent and thanks for the reminder we got of lemonade stands smile

BTW, that RT has a Direct Input option which you likely know means you can start with a dry trck and put your own amp sim, other effects, etc., on it. FWIW

The title ain't crappy. The title drew me in.

Cool. Smooth. Relaxing.

I think someone might have spiked the lemonade though. grin

Wow, that guitar sounds real (well, more real than our other real band sounds). Good arrangement. You have master over the band which is no small task.

Dear Alan,

no doubt that your songs belonged to the music I missed most during my absence here.

This one is a treat - you always hit my taste right in the heart. Love that chord progression and the funkiness of the whole thing.

Hope that Di and you are in good health.

All the best,

Stefan

Hi Ed ..

Hey You two ...

Thanks for the visit and listen. Your words about my music always lift me up and put a big smile on my face. Thanks for that!

Yes, I'm aware of the direct input, but thanks for the reminder. But I have no third party resources ... if I can't do it in BIAB and Audacity, it doesn't happen. But, I've learned to get some pretty good results on occasion with those limited resources. At least, I think so.

Ya'll take care and be safe ...

Hi Greg ...

Thanks so much. And yeah, I like lemonade ... make my own every summer. I'm more than delighted you liked the song. Appreciate you telling me.

Best to you & yours. Hope retirement is treating you good! I've been retired for 13 years ... no complaints!

Wishing you & yours the very best. Be safe ...

Hi Ez ...

I hate naming my instrumentals ... I never can think of anything that sounds decent. Glad this one struck bell for you! Well, i did add a little "extra flavor" to the lemonade!

Best to you. Take care and be safe ...

Hi jpt x 3 ...

Hi Stefan ...

Will be sending you a PM in the next day or two. I've not had time to write a proper note yet. But I will real soon. Di and I are just heart-broken to hear about Maha. We'll keep her in our prayers ... as well as you for your visual issues. As we've discussed in the past, that's my professional background and I have a good understanding of what's going on with your vision.

Thank you for your very nice comments about the song. I kinda like this one, too. I'm glad it hit you in the heart of your musical taste. That's a very nice compliment ... thank you!

As I said, I'll send you a proper message in the next day or two and tell you more about what's going on with us. Take care. Give Maha a big hug for Di and me. Be safe, my dear friend.

Alan & Di

Nice tones; great arrangement; very engaging. Effective blend of echo-delay-reverb. Well worth the effort you put in.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe

AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
