Where dreams never die !
So, I decided to write this last song for the ones that got me here, my Yamaha LS36 and my Yamaha LS56, the busking partners of mine. This rounds the playlist off at 24 selections, now I can pair it down to 12 to make a bell curve production. This last song is in 6/8, 85 BPM and the key of D Major, you can cycle the chords G and D. Thanks for putting up with all those songs with only a little complaining about possible flooding, but when it is time to write, I write. I have only had to ignore one member; it is always someone in every forum. But not to worry, I am done for at least two months or so, I am taking these scratch tracks into the studio. Thanks for listening.

In the last three days, you've posted three songs.

That's not "possible" flooding, that's actual flooding.

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

Hi BD Thomas, thanks for the comment. I use BiaB, Suno, Moises, Chatpgt, Clipchamp and YouTube to make these scratch tracks. I write the lyrics and most of the music, mainly because the A. I. Agents are not that great at it. Their lyrics makes no sense, and the progressions are standards. Now that the scratch tracks are in skeleton form I need to put some meat on the bones in the studio. I have played along with the A.I. Agents and look forward to playing with them on the streets. Thanks for asking.

You have a wonderful voice.

I think we are all envious of your prolific work. I sure am.

No no Space Dog, that is my A.I. persona voice called Michael, if you want to hear my voice go listen to My Bad, I sing with the A I band. But thanks for listening.

Top quality song that has staying power and a lovely melody. I could tell the voice was AI because it's so crisp, clean, with a professional studio sound.

Another gem, Donny. I write like I'm running out of time, too. I don't mind you posting every day. Everyone has their way, and who am I to blow against the wind? Only problem for me is I sometimes think, "Oh yeah. Donny G. Just heard that one yesterday." Your songs are so good and I don't want to miss any. Right now I have 21 songs complete with videos that I haven't posted yet, and ofthen think your way is better.

Excellent mix, and I really like your choice of vocalist. My granddaughter sometimes plays radio music, and, man, this is so much better. To me, pretty much everything on this forum is much more interesting. And often produced as well or even better. This one qualifies for that.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hey Marty, thanks for the comments. Yes, the quality of today's music does rival the radio industry. As far as the postings, every music forum I have been a part of has had one or two Karens, the worst was the old HCPP, I don't know if you remember that one, but whoa, those Karens were out in force at times. It is what it is. Thanks again Marty, play and post on as far as I am concerned.

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.
