Oh wow. Thank you so much, Dr Gannon, and everyone at PG Music. I really appreciate this, more than you may perhaps be able to imagine, and certainly more than my meagre words may be able to express.

I'll just say this: this is the best musical software product in the world, I firmly believe. Without it, none of my songs, absolutely none, would have been written. Band-in-a-Box has proved to be not only the catalyst for my songs, for my imagination, but also the vehicle for their accompaniment and arrangement. And what a vehicle ... it sounds as professional, for me at least, as any band one could book in person, and often even better, because the musicians Band-in-a-Box uses are some of the top professionals around, and the software itself (as we British sometimes say) "does exactly what it says on the tin", and more smile

On top of your professionalism and top-notch product, you also treat your customers with such kindness, as evidenced also by this very award you've offered annually, for at least as long as I've been here. I am humbled to be in the company of such genuinely great musicians, and so honoured to receive this wonderful prize.

Thank you again.

Dr G & Company,
Thank you very much.
Before my wife gave me BIAB 2011 I struggled to get my songs to sound finished...I'd been using an old Roland TR505 for drums and had some luck getting folks to drum on my stuff BUT i couldn't factor in different style or timing.
Real Drums in BIAB 2011 freed me of those restrictions.
Eventually I learnt how to use more aspects, more Real Tracks and, whilst providing me with more of what I couldn't play, opened my collaboration world hugely because BIAB users can easily, fruitfully & creatively collaborate just by sharing SGUs. It's an aspect of the program that the likes of Deej, J&B, Al David and many others know and use to everyone's advantage.
Last week I "split" some stereo recordings from 1984 inside BIAB and was able to remix/refresh them. That was an unlooked for, but happily embraced, aspect of BIAB 2025.
I post my songs on several platforms and happily announce to the world that Bandhi Nahbox played on my song. Credit where credit is due - & it certainly is due to all of you.
Again, thanks.


Cheers

Peter and team, thank you very much. If I didn't discover BiaB a few years ago I probably would not be playing today. BiaB brings a lot of joy to me plus it has made me learn and try many different genres of music. Your products have made my retirement a living dream and as a major bonus I have met and/or exchanged PM and emails with many new friends from these forums.

Also I am honored to be included with this list of outstanding musicians.

Thanx again

Thank you so much, Peter Gannon and all of the special people at PGMusic, some of whom I get to talk with, and a big thanks to those behind the scenes always making this amazingly magical software even better. You have all done so much for the good of music all around this planet. A very special community of real people sharing the love when most of the world is constantly exposed to the hate. Man, you have all elevated this from the floppy MIDI days to this incredible program of a collective genius, the PGM Genii Group. You have been a big part of my making music for like 30 years, and now it seems the only music I listen to is the folks on this forum. You guys help a lot of famous folks make a living using your product, and I particularly love when music is created for the love of music rather than the hope of money or fame.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Doctor Peter Gannon and all of your staff at PG Music,

PG Music is the absolute GREATEST!
Thank you all so much.

BIAB is an unique and amazing product which I have been using for over 25 years since the MIDI-only era without RealTracks.
I'm very happy and honored to have been included in 2024 User Showcase Awards.

And… Congratulations to all the other winners.

Best regards.

Dr. Gannon & Crew,

Thank you very much! Band In A Box has put a smile on my face, a warmth in my heart, and magic in my music. My first version was BIAB 2011.

The software is like no other. For me, there is no comparable product. This could not happen without the skill, knowledge, and dedication of your staff, under your direction. Also, there is no other online site that can come close to the level of customer service PG Music maintains.

Again, thank you and your staff for this amazing product. You have enriched more lives than you might imagine.

Congratulations to all other recipients. That's a pretty danged talented lineup of music makers!

Hey, thank you for this great honor everyone!

Words cannot express how much I love this product and the great and awesome PG Music family and the great and awesome songwriters forum family!

I truly love all of the music that's created here, and I can say beyond the shadow of a doubt that I listen to more original music on this website than I do anywhere else, hands down. For me, the interaction with all of the people here is key and really creates the magic for me.

At this point as a composer and songwriter I have absolutely no idea what in the world I would do without PG Music's software.

It has taken all of my projects into another galaxy and led to sync licensing placements, and residual income, and the ability to distribute more than 12 albums since I started using the software.

And I have two more and possibly three just in my backlog.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you PG Music.

I'm a little late to the celebrations but this is such a nice surprise! I can't wipe the grin off my face. This tool has really relieved a life-long ache, having spent most of my life in frustration of not playing an instrument and having to rely on others to ever see the music in my head realized. Fun to see so many others who contributed to the leaps in my learning curve also being rewarded. Really grateful to the develops and musicians who worked so hard to put it all together. 🙏 Thank you, thank you.

I was struck dumb with joy to be on the list.

Thank you Mr Gannon and team PG Music. The Forum is my go to place for information, entertainment and inspiration ... and mild envy. So added thanks Mr Gannon & Co for creating such a fun hang out.

Band In A Box has been elevating my musicianship since 1998 and from studio to stage, BIAB has never failed to deliver for me and continues to do so. Endless possibilities, unlimited creativity, Band In A Box has long been my digital loophole to musical bliss 😍 ♫ ♬

So, PG Music, if you're reading this, brace yourselves. My gratitude is about to manifest in a symphony of bizarre sonic creations, comedic misadventures, and a relentless dedication to pushing the limits of your software. You've unleashed a beast, or at least a slightly clumsy kitten with a synthesizer. 🤣

How else could I unleash my inner rockstar??? smile

Once again.....Thankyou PG Music. 💘
