Hi Mario, Yes, everything exactly right: a tad too loud here, a tad too unloud there. Note the melody's in a minor key (which is rare for me). It worked with Kathy's lyrics. A dark love song, more melodic pop than jazz. Definitely in for a future remix and master. And thanks for saying it might eventually be a masterpiece. AB

Hi, Ray. Listening to this made my ears happy.  As you note, not the most cheerful of songs, but musical and well done!

Thanks for the reply. There were 4 files showing as N/A however in Install Manager the respective packs shows as green and Installed. One from Pack 8, 84, 167, and 459 all of which show as installed packs but those 4 real tracks won't load, saying it is missing. Looking at it another way, sorting by the Set column, I looked at the files in Pack 353 which is one of the packs Install Manager says is not installed but all the files are there and I can load them, no N/As there. So basically even though Install Manager says they are ready to download, they are already installed except for those 4 real tracks.

Floyd you are a man of many talents. I think you could master any instrument you wanted to master. Great mandolin chops. Excellent job. PS I have a couple of >100 year old mandolins hanging on my wall; my uncle willed them to me. I also have a new mandolin hanging along side them. You gave me inspiration to attempt playing it again. I hope the frets are wider!

I think this territory sounds good on you. I like that picking guitar. Mix sounds right to me. Good chorus!

thanks for clarifying (I'm slow sometimes) If you already made it a track, that's weird Unless you still have the metronome itself playing .. have you checked that? (made sure the metronome itself is disabled, since it is on a track now)

Hi Janice & Bud, This song is absolutely mesmerizing—it pulled me into another world. Loved the grit and overall tone throughout. Wow! Thanks so much for sharing. Catherine Great to hear from you and thank you so much for the very kind and supportive comments. We appreciate the grit mention as we did focus on trying to achieve that.

Very cool, Charlie. Never looked at this tab before, but it's quite powerful. If one sorts by the Instrument column, the drum tracks are found at the top of the list as instrument <No Patch Change>.

Hello François, Thank you for the information. If you load the style SATIORK4 for example, do you hear the metronome after the count in section? Also, what OS are you running, please? I will pm you regarding your upgrade questions as well. Thank you, Catherine

Hi BD. Your title brought to mind a line from Roger Miller's song "The Code Of The West: do unto others before they can do it to you." I couldn't find my pass to get through the Google gate but I assume it's a f.....g good song as you're known to be handy with that sort of thing. Vic Thanks Vic  I'll post an update as soon as the song is officially released on Spotify and SoundCloud next week.

Does the problem seem to be related to MIDI channels (e.g. multiple instruments on the same channel), or are there wrong notes? A specific example might be helpful here to identify what's going on.

That's strange, I'm not sure what would cause that. Unless - is this happening with a specific song that happens to have an Audio track with a metronome? Or does it happen with any song? With Band-in-a-Box closed, please find the intrface.bbm file in the 'Applications/Band-in-a-Box/Preferences' folder. Zip this file (right-click on it and compress), and then email this zip file as an attachment to support with a message to refer to this forum thread. You can then try renaming the file intrface_old.bbm and running Band-in-a-Box to see if the problem happens with default settings.

Great arrangement and dynamics, Noel. The vocal sounds a little nasal but it gets the job done. Well done. Vic

Hi Andrew. What an interesting songwriting challenge. That chord progression is certainly something that would never had occurred to me, but you made it work very, very well. There is a lot of musical creativity on display here in the writing and the arranging. It's great. The backing, the mix, your vocals and guitar work (bass & rhythm) were excellent. Thanks for the detailed notes and graphics, too. They were very interesting to read through. --Noel
