Ok final say on this.....
quote "o, Frankie, I don't expect to only hear the "positive" comments, but if I don't agree with what's said, I'm totally competent and willing to take issue with it".

This I totally agree with and if you had stuck to that then no problem but you also said...

Quote " So all that being said...why not just enjoy the song for what it is, and consider that not every project presented on the User Forum is soliciting a critique...and I mean that in a good way".

Now I know how you feel when you put up one of your songs then I will just listen and keep my thoughts to myself whether I like it or not.By the way I was also with Taxi and I queried a song I sent them which the critical analysis was poor.Not about what they thought of the song but why they thought that way which was in direct contradiction to how they critique a song(to long to go into here)
With this song I had a couple of covers in the early 80s even getting on an album which got into the Bandbox top 100.The song was redone in 2007 and is now being held by a producer who is at the moment working with the guitarist Dan Hawkins from the group The Darkness.I know what its like having people critique my songs.Ive had this done by Warner Bros, EMI, Universal and Rondor music who signed me for a 3 year publishing deal in 1977 and even though it was a painful experience you have to bite the bullet and believe in the song when others dont.cheers Frankie

Hi Bob,
Quote:

Michee...this song WAS done on a home recording system.




Well I'm even more impressed now

Quote:

I did TEN vocal takes of the song and took the best performance of each line of the lyric and cut and pasted them to get as close as possible to a perfect take.




That's very similar to what I do (most of the time)
When recording the vocals, what do you do (do record dry? with compression? with delay? etc etc .)

Quote:

The BIAB tracks, which is everything except the vocal, was created on a Dell laptop running Reaper ($40).




I have just purchased Reaper myself and will probably take months to get my head around the learning curve (only ever used RealBand) so some tips on what plugins you used for each track would be very welcome (as long as it is not a commercial secret )

Quote:

Perhaps because I know what "commercial studio" recordings sound like as compared to "home studio" recordings it's easier to create a similar outcome.




Please give me more information on this, what is the difference? is it more volume, crisper, fuller etc and how do you get a similar sound at home.

Once again very impressed by your sound.


Best regards
Michee

I could see that song in the bar scene in George Strait's movie a few years back "Pure Country"

Nicely done!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
