Thanks floydjane for the feedback; I am now up to 15 of 50 songs. This song is from a challenge called the More Cowbell challenge in which the goal was to use a cowbell sound. I will never be able to get the SNL skit "More Cowbell out of my head; every time I hear a cowbell, I think about that skit. I use a $20.00 dynamic mic instead of using my cardiod. So I wrote this song.

I did use all Band in a Box instrument tracks; the cowbell is from Reason.

Song 16 of 50 is a shorty that I programmed using Cubase. I had never used the midi program feature in Cubase, although I have played a midi instrument through it. So today I decided to program a song in it. The drums are from the stock Halion that comes in Cubase; the guitar chords, and the plunky guitar notes are from a free software synth called ping; I also use the mda piano which is another free instrument plugin. I was just messing around with all of the instrument plugins and just like the sound of these 2.

Thanks floydjane for the comment on "My Baby Left Me For The Postman" I actually thought about sparing the dog; but could not figure out how to with the previous lyric lines.

Thanks Janice & Bud and boehm for the feedback!

Song 19 I used the melodist on Band in a Box; I tweaked a few of the settings; giving it a little lead way to create some unique chordings. I ended up using the B section totally; the A sections I went in and changed the main chords to 5 chords as the song sounded more jazz than rock originally. I was really impressed at how well Band in a Box is able to put together a chord progression that worked so well. The rest was just arranging the realtracks they are:

387 Bass
1856 Cello
RDrums=Rock Thrash halftime Ev 16^1 clh,clr
639 guitar
642 guitar

Hi Robert.
I see you are almost half way. Am jealous.
Enjoyed the lyrical 'Encountering Beautiful'.
Definitely a theatrical almost Gilbert and Sullivan quality there.
Congratulations on your quality and variety of songs. Cheers.

Hey PgFantastic! I don't know if I have hit any of your tunes over at 50/90 -- it looks like you have been busy. I'll stop by over there and comment on a couple.

I have actually used BIAB on two of my tunes, maybe I should post them here when I get the chance. I used BIAB as a "tag".

EDIT: How embarrassing -- I have commented on two of your songs, oops!

I know what you mean kemmrich; 5090 is so fast paced; it's hard to remember what songs you've commented on; i'm glad they have them highlighted so it is easy to find wants you get to a person site.

Here is song 24 of 50 simply titled Maggie; do not ask me where this title came from; or how I ended up with the lyrics to it. I was just doodlin on my guitar and the name Maggie popped in my head; then the old outlaw westerns came to mind. This is the first song I have ever written where I did not know the motivation in writing it LOL. I used some tips from the reverb ? I had let me know if the verb sounds ok on Maggie, please; thanks! All comments are welcome.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!

With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.

The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
