This is a retitled remix of what was originally "Flying Free", the change in title being due to discovering that it was also the title of a to me unsavoury person's biography and I didn't like the idea of the two being associated. I've added harps to this remix, changed the drums stem, plus while sticking with the original bass I created a new sample and rendered it in Soren..

Chay. A tasty, smooth mixture with a bit of spaghetti thrown in. I imagine OO7 moving across the casino floor. Nice. Thanks, Vic! I never saw/imagined that 007 connection, but now I do!

How about flipping it? Instead of the AI label, use a HU label to indicate that all the tracks and vocals are 100% human created, and a smaller hu in the box for music that contains tracks that are not human created but are in fact, simply human assisted. Use of VSTi plugins, tracks created by Band in a Box, etc, would be labeled as human assisted. They could still use the AI label for the 100% AI generated with a prompt music. Just thinking..... What say you? I find it interesting that you're listing VST instruments. I record many of my piano parts myself using a VSTi, and the piano VSTi supports me just as much as a real piano. It's just a _little_ less expensive and takes up less real estate than a real Bösendorfer Grand Imperial 290  Listeners may not care but those who pay royalties most certainly do and scrutiny will increase going forward. AI generated content cannot be copyrighted. The Librarian of Congress based her decision on 150 years of precedent and the governments around the world immediately embraced the concept. This means that nobody gets to own the work product and no monies need be paid. We’re talking about Billion$. Nobody benefits more than Spotify and YouTube at the moment. VIs (virtual instruments) have nothing to do with this. Humans manipulate the software instruments. VSTs are just Steinberg’s tech. VIs have been around much, much longer—at least twenty versions are in active use these days. Halloran’s Rule about the Numbers Game. 1: It’s a game 2: It’s played with numbers 3: See rules 1&2

Ah, I knew something sounded grandiosely similar. I've been wondering why I always end up with David Snyder vocals whenever I forget to specifically ask for female vocals...

SO is there 8 total Ins on that? I assumed 6, but you added context that makes me rethink my assumption 8 in and 8 to computer (USB)? Yes. Every analog In has a direct Out over USB. There is no mixer. In your DAW, each will present as a single input to Mono tracks. For Stereo tracks, 1 (Combi/Mic), 3 (Combi/Mic), 5 (Instrument), 7 (Line) are panned hard L; 2 (Combi/Mic), 4 (Combi/Mic), 6 (Instrument), 8 (Line) are panned hard R. The AIR lets you monitor Mono or Stereo to either headphone amp or both as you can see by the switches. I have a Radial J+4 Stereo Line Driver active DI connected to 7/8 for such things as my iPads, cassette deck, turntable etc. I still do a lot of audio restoration and this connects to anything.

Rharv. you speak the truth. +1000000 to infinity. there are things BB is good at and other things rb is good at. for example i use BB to generate blink of an eye traks. while rb for detailed work that might irk me in bb. to the OP...read the following whereby rb might a better solution than bb. https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=859938#Post859938 sometime look at rb traks view for audio/midi editing...its like a breath of fresh air. you can even see the bar divisions which you cant in bb. if anyone thinks i'm lying read other users responses in the thread. its all a question of useing what each app is good at imho. (to OP run your own tests in rb and see if it meets your needs.) om

Nice song. Sorry I haven't been on here much there are medical reasons I won't bore you with. Ps... when I was a kid in England I was trains crazy. I wish I had kept my metal trains Wide guage. Om Hey, Alf --Om. Man, i hope you are well and on your way to mending. Yeah, miss your uniqueness here, buddy. The train craze is real. A cousin of mine always had the best setup when we were kids. He now has a setup that requires 13 engineers operating through glass like a recording studio. Marty, The lyrics and video really capture the atmosphere of the Santa Fe Railway. I first learned of the place name "Santa Fe" through the Bacharach song "Do You Know the Way to Santa Fe?" Your song has a lively, country-style sound that fits the video perfectly. Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi HAHA. Hi, Shigeki. Thanks, and i also enjoyed your correction comment. Funny, when i first read this one, i only wanted to correct the writers to be Bacharach/Daivd. "Do you know the way to Santa Fe" sounded right in my head. Your train has a nice drive, Marty. The fiddle, percussion, and your bass provide the perfect locomotive breath, and man, how do you manage to sing so fast without tripping over your words? Love it ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) Thanks, Brain. Yeah, it was like holding onto the rail of the Caboose with one hand while clutching the lyrics in the other trying to read them as the speed ruffled the paper. What a fun ride that was, Marty, and we both love trains and the West! You and the band created a delightful trip. And you got us reading more history on the railroad line and the Harvey Houses. We both remember our Mothers talking about their train travels. BTW, we LOVE steam engines. Your performances and the BiaB Wrecking Crew are all very nice. Enjoyed it! J&B Thanks, Janice & Bud. That is so cool that you also did some research into the history. i remember you guys liking my train pix from nearby Steamtown National Historic Site in previous videos, also the ones from the Southwest. Man, it would be fun for me & BeBe to take a train ride through that area with you guys.

Ace Studio AI has an option to record your own vocals. 1 - 3 hours worth and then bingo you have your own voice in AI. Maybe that's worth looking at? I don't know if SUNO has that option. When I've got a good dataset of my own voice, I'll stick a song up. I've run a few of my old BIAB songs through ACE and I love the results. Unlike Henry's version, all that's mine is the lyrics. So I have a new learning curve to claw back my input - at least vocals, but in a way that will sound professional. Let's be honest, our vocals are usually the weak link in BIAB.

Wonderful all the way around - Great lyrics and vocals! I agree with some comments here - maybe put the vocals a little more forward or the piano behind. Let your voice shine. You have a great voice! Thank you for the kind supportive comments! They are much appreciated by all of us. It was fun to revisit it. J&B PS: Well there’s the old adage, “mixing is never finished just abandoned.” 😀

The lovely lyric is a perfect match for the Cuban Latin feel. Janice said that just reading the lyric touched her heart. What a beautiful production you’ve created, Shigeki. And your fifty year old lyric remains strong! Great band and nice use of the Suno vocal. Enjoyed it, J&B

Hi Scott, Glad you liked the song! >>>This is a much more singable (and listenable) melody than the current anthem. Well, talk it up! If it gets adopted as our new national anthem, I'll give you a cut of the royalties. Just think how often it would get played ;-) >>>I particularly like that glockenspiel! Thanks! Most songs have instruments that fill up the low-to-mid frequency ranges, so there's usually some room at the top for a glock or other higher-pitched instrument to inhabit. Bob

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
