My first post here. Merry Christmas everyone... A Classic song written by Hugh Martin & Ralph Blane... This started out as a midi file I downloaded years ago and added Keys, Guitars and Vocals... Lead Guitar, Oohs & Aahs from BIAB, arranged and mixed in Cakewalk Sonar, Intro Guitar is a NI Picked Nylon sample. I hope you enjoy... I'm interested in any comments about the intro midi guitar part that was rendered using the NI KOMPLETE Instrument/ Session Guitarist-Picked Nylon VSTi. Any feedback would be appreciated. Edit; Sincerely sorry for posting a cover tune here... I should have known better... Thanks for friendly heads-up.

Hi, Bloc-Head. Since the forum is limited to songs that people have rights to, and the song isn't yet in the public domain, I try to avoid commenting on this sort of thing. See the top of the forum: The songs must be originals, no copyrighted or "cover" songs. You must have all of the rights to the songs. That said, the entire arrangement is excellent, with the caveat that the harmony on the vocals are a bit too synthetic to my ears. The easiest way around that is to just record a different vocal that you're going to send through the harmonizer, so it doesn't track so closely to the main vocal. As for the MIDI guitar introduction - I also thought it was very well done. I hope that helps!

Thanks to David and J&B for pointing out what should have been obvious to my dumb bloc-head.
I guess I got caught up in the Holiday spirit before reading the rules.
My apologies to the forum... I will now attempt to remove my covers...

You could always post it to "I just heard Band-in-a-Box on YouTube", where that is not disallowed. Seems a little sneaky when the musician is you, but it's not like you have to pretend you didn't know. https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=366308#Post366308

Thanks Mark... It's an interesting argument, but it's really no big deal to me... I have plenty of original material to share... I just appreciate the platform & all the good people here.
