Re: YOU'RE A BABY AND WONDERFUL P Glaser 6 seconds ago Forum: User Showcase
Hi Sol. Wow! This is great all round! It starts out as a big band love song then, pow! That third verse really caught me off guard. Either way, this is very well done! Great vox!

Brian, thanks so much for your nice comments. I'm glad you like it. We all need a good drinking song now and then. lol

Thanks much Dave! I'm glad you like it. Yep, that's me on the lead vox. My grandkids thought it was funny that, "Papa lost his shirt".

Awesome production and a very, very solid write. Good song structure. Most interesting. I still don't know what to think about AI music and AI vocals in particular, but I truly enjoyed my listen.

[quote=Notes Norton But what does sports have to do with education? [/quote] I do agree that in the US (can't speak for elsewhere) that too much emphasis is placed on sports and not enough on education. And we do have massive childhood obesity and diabetes problems that proper exercise and sports could help address. But there are no silver bullets, the big problems we have require big solutions.

Yes testing is the best way. The debate I’m going through is are the choir voices worth the extra money compared to the solo SATB voices I already own for my use cases.

Re: The Barn (featuring Peter on guitar) Torrey Bliss 1 hour ago Forum: User Showcase
J&B I'm so used to hearing you folks release something upbeat (often with a swing beat) and was expecting the same here! I was pleasantly surprised to hear this beautiful, soft flowing song that has been wonderfully produced! This is probably my favorite vocal performance from Janice out of the many, many songs I've listened to of yours! Such a beautiful delivery from start to last note! Peter provided excellent support on guitar! 5 Stars! Thanks, TB

Floyd, Amazing, wow, fabulous and every other complimentary word I can throw at it! Your catalog of hit worthy material constantly floors me! You released this shortly before I joined this forum, so I don't recall hearing it. You are a constant inspiration to me to keep on plugging away and hoping to come up with something that inspires others in the same way! This is a smokin hot tune that hits all the marks and has been masterfully arranged and produced! Keep on rockin' TB

Re: REVOLUTION Torrey Bliss 2 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Andrew, This sounds like a lost Stones track that was meant to be a radio hit back in their early 80's resurgent period! Love the Keith Richards type rhythm guitar stuff going on, it really makes the song as well as the memorable melody flowing through! It's a really great sounding track that is worthy of many listens! Thanks, TB

Re: Credit where credit is due. Notes Norton 3 hours ago Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows
I've been playing with BiaB since it was on the Atari computer, and like it's PC-DOS counterpart, had only 3 instruments, only 24 built-in styles, no intros or endings, not shots or holds, no notation, a set, quantized drum set, and a lot of potential. Partly due to Peter Gannon, his employees, and both the hard and easy to please users, it has grown to the state it is today. I've watched it grow, seen both baby and giant steps, a few minor missteps that have been jettisoned, and am amazed at both what it has become, and how PG Music has kept it relevant and useful all these years. It's grown from a simple practice tool, which is why I bought it in the first place, to a fantastic music creation tool. And I'm also amazed that the styles and songs I and others wrote in the early 1990s still work in BiaB today. Well done! And keep up the good work.

Re: Can styles be easily removed from the style picker list? Notes Norton 3 hours ago Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows
You can always move the styles you are sure you will never use from the style folder into a new folder you create (so you don't lose them - just in case). Call it OutOfStyle or anything you want. Then re-build the style picker window. If you ever get curious, you can still manually load the style into BiaB and give it a listen. I'm sure there are other solutions to your question, but this is the first thing I thought of. Insights and incites by Notes ♫

Re: You're the Hole in my Doughnut if you Leave Al-David 9 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
John, My first time listening to you. Nice work! Quirky humor, which I always enjoy. I'm not a wine drinker - although a cold Bud Light once in a while is okay. But if wine drinking results in this., maybe I should rethink that. I've passed through Yucaipa a couple of times - lived in Bakersfield in the 90s. But I once dated the city manager of Moreno Valley. That's pretty close. Anyway, enjoyed your song a lot. Thanks for a terrific listen, Alan

Re: Original "Baker Street" demo...never feel bad about your demos again! John Walradt 11 hours ago Forum: Recording, Mixing, Performance and Production Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Well, Andrew, I have read a few accounts that Gerry was locked in a hideous record deal and "Baker Street" was a story about breaking away from that. I don't know who came up with the idea of the percussion stick. It sounds as if it was a very poor way of saying "this is where a drum kit should be." I doubt that was the intention but still a bad idea. John
