Hi, Bud & Janice !:))
I do not think Janice
can do anything or anyone
wrong though she sings she´s sorry !
Her voice just exudes sincerity
and honesty !
Hey, what guy could be so cold
as to leave a woman alone
on Christmas Eve !!!!!!!!
Merry Xmas to you two too
and naturally I do wish
that the New Year brings you
even more innovative and musicfilled
moments (and new tunes!!!!) !
Cheers
Dani

Nice mood setting arrangement.
"Please let me come home I promise I'll never leave." Whoooo that's a loaded line, be carefully of that one Bud, or you'll never grow them white whiskers.

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.
