I’m looking for a Real Drum transition fill using tom toms and triplets with descending tone. I hear these a lot on pop/rock songs in the last bar of a chorus introducing the next one but none of the tracks in Real Drums Finder seems to have them. Any suggestions? Thanks. What Tempo?

Hi Carl, its great to hear your music again. Excellent job on the keys. I feel your finger pain. I have resorted to taking Meloxicam so I can keep on playing. I know the risks but my fingers work a lot better than without it and I'm not just talking about playing guitar, bass, or keyboard.

This is a fantastic song Chris. Your AI vocal and flute matched perfectly with the BiaB tracks - great job on that. That AI vocal sounds so real it is scary. Great mix A super song and one of if not your best to date.

The song packs an emotional wallop. Peter's guitar sounds like the aching spirit mentioned in the chorus. Speaking of the chorus, it was strong and carries the song as it should. Vocal is par excellence. Thanks for all you wrote. It covers all we could hope to accomplish. Its greatly appreciated by all of us, J&B

Hi Rob, What a low, sultry voice. From what I know of Gershwin, he couldn't sing as sultrily (or intimately) as you! You sang and recorded this very well. And that harmonica really finishes it off. Truly beautiful! Hans You're right, Hans, there are no recordings of Gershwin singing. And he wrote no lyrics, his brother Ira did that. But man could he compose a song! Thanks for such nice comments, I wouldn't be singing without encouragement from forum members. Much appreciated!

We thoroughly enjoyed your rockin’ blues gospel. Jukka’s piano solos were great. And your warm resonant vocals remind us of Maurizio Glielmo (A somewhat obscure blues singer that we like from the Gnola Blues Band. Great group of BiaB session guys to support you, Jukka and Timo, Well arranged, mixed and we much enjoyed it, J&B

“I’m looking ahead with a spring in my step I’ve left it behind and I’ve learned to forget I’m taking time to smile and now for just a while“ Nice! That BiaB band is a showcase within the showcase forum. Excellent session folks indeed and very well mixed. The video is very creative. And the supportive real clips are perfect. As others have praised the arrangement, chord structure and vocals are top notch. Well done and much enjoyed by us, J&B

We completely can relate to wondering why those songs won’t just finish themselves. 😉 This was well worth the wait, Janne, and we too look for the good in every day - or at least try! Love the bridge, "I may not know the author of this play yet I'm thankful for this day." The band is warm and soulful and that sax is great. The synth vocalists work well. Excellent mix all around. The video interpretation was cool, with the migrating birds being our favorite part. Regarding music theory rules, to paraphrase a line from one of Janice’s favorite Humphrey Bogart movies: “Rules, what rules? We don’t need no stinking rules!” 😂 Enjoyed it! J&B

Hi Aleja78, Thank you for the thorough detail and explanation of your issue. I've been away for a couple weeks, but will address this now. Your songs should work as structured, and we'll work to fix this. 1. Has support for older BB2Go songs with *_render.m4a files changed in the newer iOS app versions? - This sounds like a bug, and *_render.m4a file compatibility shouldn't have changed in the last update. 2. Is there a way to convert or migrate these older songs so the existing rendered M4A audio is preserved and used by the iOS app? - Opening one of these songs in the app, then saving again should move the .m4a content (if present) into the song file. 3. Is there a utility in BIAB 2024 Windows (or another method) to embed or link an existing *_render.m4a into the SGU file without rendering the song again? - The 'bundling' feature where .m4a and notation / RealCharts content is saved into the song file is exclusive to the mobile apps at this time. 4. Is “M4A+ Ready” related to this older ZIP import format, and is there a way to recover or convert these songs? - "M4A Ready" indicates .m4a audio content in the same directory as the song. "M4A+ Ready" corresponds to a song file with the .m4a audio bundled in the same file. The "your_old_biab_songs.zip" file should only be visible in the Export view, so it sounds like another bug. The archive is created to collect (for backup, or re-import) all old files from the old version of iOS Band-in-a-Box, prior to the 2.0.0 update. It can sometimes be empty, and the "Open" function in the app isn't calibrated to handle it, either way. - Tim

Hi Floyd, 'The darkness comes so softly that you do not feel it until it completely envelops you and turns everything into twilight'... Quite a somber song, Floyd. But somber or not, hope is always to be found in your lyrics: 'So look for the light in the tunnel look for the sun coming out look for a way to find your joy paper and pen' I think that paper and pen is very well chosen here, both literally and used as a metaphor. Yes, I don't need to tell you that this is a very cleverly written text, because all your lyrics are masterpieces in their own right! The musical accompaniment supports that somber, yet also hopeful, quality of the lyrics well. You did a great job with that! Hans

I created the workflow video series 2 + years ago and was hoping PGM would address the inconsistencies when they focus on the User Experience in 2026. Unfortunately, they seem to be some what restricted to just GUI improvements. The User Experience is much more than that. They have made many improvements since these video were made, but many of the topics have not been addressed such as zoom, pan, and zoom consistency, https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=802368#Post802368Hopefully they will continue to make progress through that. Their business model appears to demand a new release each year, for Christmas, with "new features" and I think improvements of the kind you/we want are not always so easy to sell as those new features. The last release had "many new features", rather than the 50+ they usually declare, so I think(hope) that indicated a change from their old way of working to something more focussed on a smoother user experience. I guess we'll find out for sure this coming December. We have to remember that many changes they make will be fairly complex due to BiaB's history and will need extensive testing and still needs to fit within the above strategy. Some of the changes they make may well be just intermediate steps towards a planned end and the steps themselves may fade away.
