I liked everything. Great title also.

Nice!

You have done a great job of putting together a nice arrangement. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Hi Charlie,

Short and good? No: short and excellent !!!! Marvellous song and a fantastic (and most adorable) usage of what PGM has to offer. Simply great all the way.

Lots going on, but everything "glides" together nicely (no abrupt transitions.) Well mixed and produced. Enjoyed the listen.

A nice blend of multiple instruments while keeping it all coherent.

Good work, and a pleasant listen.

Thanks Stefan. I appreciate you taking time to listen and comment.

Thanks for listening. Even with lots going on, the gliding and smooth transitions is mostly me taking advantage of seldom used features and tools that's been included in BIAB for a long time. BIAB is doing the heavy lifting. As a result of a recent discussion on another forum thread, I posted more details to how to get more than 8 tracks and 8 instruments from BIAB without having to use another program or DAW in the Tips and Tricks thread. You may want to try it out one day. BIAB is capable to create some quite complex arrangements beyond just choosing a Style and replacing instruments.

Thanks Herb. I really like your latest post, "Old Tin Roof". It's a great song and production.

Thanks for listening and commenting. BIAB/RB is a wonderful tool and I was lucky to have it recommended to me back several years ago. It's been a blessing in so many ways.

When I saw your description, I figured that the song was going to be all over the place, but it held together as a single piece of music well.

That's quite a bit of cleverness to get it trigger different styles. As floyd jane said, nice trade off between the instruments, which really helped make it coherent.

Fun listen. smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

It's great to see you had time to listen and post. I hope all is going well with you and Mrs. Di. I saw in another post you replied to that you also use a lot of similar technical nuances and techniques when you create with BIAB. There's a lot of power built into this program and helps me take home recording to levels I can't achieve on my own or with local talent.

Thanks for listening. The lead instruments were from a medley put together by the PGMusic staff. It's a feature that's been around for quite a while but was expanded and enhanced and re-introduced as a feature in 2019. It really works a treat and is probably the easiest way to build up the dynamic feel of a project. This project was simply an 8 bar repetition to total 32 bars and the medley did a wonderful job of refocusing the listener's attention from the redundancy of the backing tracks.
