I enjoyed the song.

Hi smile

It's excellent to see you. Thanks for having a listen and for taking time to pass on your observations. Much appreciated!

All the best,

It's a really nice duet.
It's a very cool vocal arrangement.
You're really good at writing vocal harmonies.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Shigeki Adachi.

I hope that everything is going really well for you over in Japan smile

Thanks for having another listen to the song and passing on some of your thoughts. I appreciate that. I love arranging songs using classical 4-part harmony and traditional counterpoint. This is the first time I've arranged something like this for nearly a decade, I think. It was good to exercise the brain cells again!

Thank you heaps for visiting the thread!

Hi Tom.

it's great to see you again. I've still got a long way to go with these synth voices but I'm beginning to understand them a bit better now. It's been a lot of fun learning how to do things.

Thanks for dropping in and visiting Soundcloud!

Take care, T

Hi Torrey.

I appreciate your passing through the thread. I agree with you. These voices are incredible. Until I started listening to what people had done with them, I had no idea that it was possible to create such realistic vocals. I'm loving playing learning how to get the most out of Synth V.

Thanks for taking the time to have a listen!

Hi David.

You don't need these vocaloids. To be honest, I'm pretty sure that would cramp your amazing creativity! That said, I'm glad I managed to impress you smile

All the best,

Well done Noel.
This is a sweet song featuring a couple of sweet singers. The technology behind Kevin and Natalie and others is truly amazing - and its obviously getting better all the time.
The simple band arrangement works really well. The mandolins are a nice touch, and as someone else said, the harmonies are great.
Cheers,
Mike

Hi Noel,

You could never deny this is one of your writes. As mentioned previously, the phrasing has your fingerprints all over it. And that's a good thing.

Your use of the AI voices is better on every song. i was greatly impressed by the vocal harmony - fantastic! That was a real pleasure!

Wishing you everythig good.

Alan

Hi Mike.

It's excellent to see you. Thanks for popping in. I agree with you. It's extraordinary what Synthesizer V has managed to do with vocaloids. It actually makes songwriting so much easier to be able to instantly change words with your singer and listen to how they sound and whether they fit or not. As songwriting tool, Synth V is definitely an asset.

I appreciate your visit and comments.

Hi Alan.

It's always a pleasure to see that you've visited a thread of mine. Thank you for listening to the song and for your comments. I appreciate your insights. I'm beginning to learn some strategies in relation to the AI voices and it helps a lot. They're pretty amazing!

All the very best to you and Di.

Hey Scott!

It's excellent to see you. Thanks for taking the time to have listen. Synthesizer V is amazing. It's given me a whole new outlook on creating songs. Although it's a bit of the steep curve at the beinginning, I'm loving the learning journey.

Thanks again for the visit!

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.
