Congrats, Steve. A song a week is impressive. But then again your time in Iraq is also VERY impressive. Good feel to this one (easy bass  ). Your playing is stellar, sir.

Cool vocal and lyric Marty. Always love the groove of your pieces. Dave's intro, solo and fills were perfect for the song. Well done Thanks, Scott. A fine drummer once told me, "You can't hold no groove if ya ain't got no pocket." Without the double negatives that would be, "You can hold a groove if ya got a pocket." Thanks for the positive feedback, Scott. Hi Marty and Dave, of course, I think you're the master at coming up with creative song titles! All your songs have that unique twist that only you can come up with. And I haven't even mentioned the song itself! I listened to this song on YouTube a while ago, and now I'm listening to it again. Thank goodness, because it's just a great song that you and Dave can really make. Well, that's why I consult you so often when writing my songs ;-) Happy 2026 to you and everyone at your place! Hans Thanks, Hans, but those master title makers are all in Nashville. This'll be a better year, buddy. You will make it that. What a great sentiment Marty and the bridge lyric really nails it! We enjoyed the lyric and were reminded of many interviews with musicians. All who lamented those same concerns. You and Dave are in fine form and, as always, work your magic together! Fine mix and supporting vid ... all is so cohesive. Happy New Year! J&B Happy New Year to you two, too. Like anything, music is more fun without the money-value many attach to it.

I had little idea on how important the bass is until this thread. Combination of username and comment made me smile <grin>

Gorgeous song, Janne. Love the lush arrangement and how the vocalists intertwine. Am sure these results are technically challenging to achieve, but they sound natural and effortless. Cool theme. Our natural wonders should indeed be cherished. Top notch stuff.

Depuis plusieurs jours j'échange par mail & par chat avec PG music pour obtenir l'annulation de mon achat et son remplacement par BIAB 2026. A part quelques réponses lénifiantes , aucune réaction aucune action. C'est affligeant! A se demander si les canadiens ne seraient aussi bêtes que leur voisin!!

Thank you for the listen and your comments Herb. I’ll tweak the guitars as you suggest and I’ve also had some tweaks suggested by RayC. Im just waiting for the AC to bring my music room down from 35 degrees C. It’s roasting in Adelaide today. Kind regards.

... My Only Problem Is The Difference In Chords Like The Slight Difference Between A Chord Like FMaj And F2 Or FAdd9. ... So Could You Please Correct My Chords If I'm Wrong? Two quick things. First, F2 and Fadd9 are indeed different chords but BIAB implements them both as F2. Same for Fadd2; it's played as F2. You should not expect to hear different chords. Second, unless you turn off Natural Arrangement (and sometimes even if you do!), BIAB is likely to choose similar chords sometimes, just as a normal human player would, especially in jazz. In the example you tested, BIAB might simply have substituted F2 for F. But first, turn off Natural Arrangement and run the test again many times. Then if you want to know more, read my article here and try more experiments: https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=694482#Post694482

Good idea to test that. There is another setting for the lowest note BIAB uses, and I think it may be in the same area, and it's possibly E2. My point is there may be other settings that could interact and that needs to be checked especially if someone is making more than one change. There is also the Preferences, Channels where you tell BIAB what register an instrument is in and how to adjust the display. The bass plays an octave lower than written so that is -1. On my computer the Melody is a plus 1. I wonder what would happen if that were changed to 0 or -1. If we can't find any way to do this that sticks, I will report this thread to the developers.
