Now that is some super-duper smooth guitar playing!!! wow, and that shaker does sound good -- is that one of the new loops? I got my 2012 usb hard drive today, but i probably won't install until this weekend.

Super cool!

Thanks guys ! Kevin, yes the shaker is a loop in 2012. The 'band' is not too shaby on this one either. Love the Rhodes and sax tracks. BIAB / Real Band has really let me do decent recordings in my office with a laptop and some headphones ! THANKS PGMUSIC !

Mitch,

great intonation on your lap steel! I'm impressed! And what a great combination of your playing with the real tracks! When this software is combined with people who know how to play, the whole really is better than the sum of the parts!

Thanks for posting.

Mitch I really enjoyed the guitar playing and wow BIAB 2012 sounds Great! It won't be long now I will be ordering mine.Looks like they are running a sale which was what I was waiting for . Will be the first time for me so hope I can start making music with the Program. Looks like there is many things to learn but if I can start out with some basic things and start making music I will be happy. I sure do hope this program is not to complicated or i will be pulling the hair's out of my head . Wish me Luck ! lol

Regards,
Greg

Greg we are a support team here. Check in with questions. As with all forums and software we hope you will read the entire frigging manual from cover to cover. Most of us have never opened it. Especially Russ. But he's got an armada of planes ready to defend the LA coast from flying mutant gators.

Seriously Welcome aboard, and we hope you make lots of music.

Ask for tunes, many of us have them ready to roll, you just need to take the thing to your level, which is all the fun at the end of the day.

Oh and I think highly of Russ in case you wondered. I want to go gator hunting with him, as PBS or something has indicated to me that all people in Louisiana are running around fishing for gators.

I do not for the most part believe in stereotypes, but have to admit that Blauplunket made some dandies in the early days. LOL

Really nice! Nice use of the tenor sax (I presume that's a BIB Real Track?), and your playing is superb!
Looking forward to getting my 2012 upgrade.
