Hi this is a demo that came from the version 5 1992 Band In A Box which I have just bought ,it has 4 floppy discs and a manual and was created for the Atari Ste and the demo you hear is coming from my Atari ste to RealBand which is how it was recorded ,I would like to use the showcase to show that even back in 1992 Band in a Box was leading the way in quality software and how awesome was that very best wishes Brian,


And this is how it looks on the BB window as it sweetly plays best wishes Brian/scarrabri

Hi Brian,

Thanks for sharing this. I didn't find BIAB until 2006.

The arrangement of "Teddy Bear's Picnic" is top class. I reckon if this was channelled through Sampletank or some other top notch softsynth, it would sound awesome.

All the best,
Noel

Hi thanks for your reply Noel and yes The arrangement is so very good and catches the mood the moment one hears it ,
I was amazed when I loaded it into my Atari STE and I listened to the many tracks that were included with the v5 BB software created all those years ago ,oh by the way I thought your BB songs were excellent my friend ,very best wishes Brian.

Hi Brian
Even today that would be considered a very good and highly competent BB file and playing. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
21 years on and this was my Take on it at the Guitar Club Christmas Party -

Hi Brian,

Can you post the BB-file? After clean install of BB2018, I cannot find the file anymore.

This was very cool and loved the background story describing its creation.
