bloc-head, I'm so glad you found the Showcase (and BIAB). It is a joy listening to your music. I agree with ray on The Band reference - it would have been one that Levon Helm would take the lead...
An excellent sound. I like the mix. (one small note - the BIAB pianos are often pretty mid-range-y and can use a bit of high end brightening to keep them from getting too close to the BIAB mid-range-y rhythm guitars) Killer vocals and harmonies. Good Music. Thanks for the great feedback & advice Floyd... I normally make use of a Hi-Pass filter on Piano RTs. I call it "mud removal".

Excellent vocals, and the harmonies are perfect and perfectly placed. A very engaging song with a catchy melody. Man, Brent is always a good choice. An outstanding professional sound, bloc-head. Anyway, I love it!

Hey this sounds really good Bloc-head. Very soulful. Hey, I see you are selling this for $10? Did you mean $1? Are people gonna pay that much for one song??  Sounds good though! I forget what band it was but a few years ago, a band, sold ONE copy of their new album...... yep, just one. It was several hundred thousand IIRC. Bloc.... what a cool song. Yep, I hear the Band in there as well as a touch of Springsteen in the accordion. Those vocal harmonies are spot on. Sweet as honey. Nice choice on the instruments and very tastefully mixed. grin;-) If I can just sell this one song, I'll be $10 richer... Thanks

Anyway, I love it! Thank you Marty, I had every intention of replacing Brent's solo with my own, but it was just too good... I'm happy you liked the song. Thanks again for the great feedback...

Excellent twist on the love lost theme.

J&B I really can't remember why I came up up with these lyrics... I must have had a bad dream. "Anyway", we're still in love, after all these years, in spite of some of my bloc-head lyrics. Thanks for the nice feedback.

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.
