Mario, You are the King of Ambient. I always enjoy you yoga/meditation stuff. Really well done. fj Thanx so much Floyd. I'm not sure about that King of Ambient statement but I have been listening to ambient and new age music since it first came out.

My sincere apologies to all for my offensive statements. Still friends? OK, I apologize as well as I am the resident Realband hater. If you use it and like it, all the more power to you! I would just advise any new BIAB user to at least try out other affordable DAW options in addition to trying out the free included one. Personally, after trying Realband every couple of years since I became a BIAB user 14 years ago, I have always found other DAWs to be superior.

I tried it out and the female Jenny sounded just like the male Neil, who sounded a lot like me. It uses a lot of resources and caused my mini pc to overheat during processing. I deleted it.

Great sounding arrangement, B.D. Not an instrument too many or too few. Love that A1 breathy vocal. I agree there’s not enough 3/4, 12/8 styles in the Box Vic

Predicting next chord based on previous choice from real world examples. https://www.hooktheory.com/trends These people had been around for years now and while they "lifetime" option license, their software is web based only. Not a true offline software. There are a couple of algorithmic "predictive" apps, but based on logic, not real world examples. All others are either web based or iOS. There was a quite interesting progression library app for android, but developer gone silent for years. Or how about this, interactive Riemann maps. I found them quite entertaining: https://lengua.la/hugoriemann/hugo.php?sus&dim Developer done this as a hobby, never matured to a VST or standalone.

Super song, Dave/Chris/Marty! A really nice SOUND (again!) and great, supportive performances by all. Dave, you hit all my buttons on that solo. SO nice... I'm hearing some of the harshness that Vic refers to in the lead vocals, but not enough to ruin the listen. Like the ending a lot. You may want to extend the reverb tail a bit longer to let that last note linger a bit for the listener. Glad you resurrected this one, it's a real stunner. Hi Ron, Happy you liked the song and thanks for mentioning the solo, sometimes I get it right  For the vocal, I have a couple of vocal chains I use on her vox that I've developed over the last 10 years and more than 100 songs that just work. I get into trouble if I mess with them, which is what I did on this song  Thanks for pointing it out, my ears aren't good enough to hear subtle things like that. Hi Dave, A really well produced song. As others have said, your lead, Marty’s bass and Chris’s vocals are all on the mark. Most excellent, kind regards Appreciate the listen and positive review, Lee! This was quite different than your usual blues-rock fare - almost delicate. Didn't recognize Chris's vocal at first, but it soon got familiar again. Great song, the whole band did well! That's the difference between music that came from me and music that came from Chris, I'm the blues/rock guy. There has been a few music ideas that came from Chris, one is a Sea Shanty in 3/4 time. Might redo that one at some point. Thanks, Bob!

That's knocking it out of the park! Wish they all could be that easy - kudos to PGM for putting that function in their software package. Their crystal ball was working well when they were building BB. Great responses from everyone here, and thanks to Andrew for chiming in with the right-on-target easy solution.
