If I understand the problem correctly, this should enable you to adjust the volume of a specific region of a specific track: 1. Select the track 2. Go to Audio Edit 3. Select Edit from Audio Edit command bar 4. Select Amplify from the popup window. + and - dB values are recognized. This is only a theory, as I make these adjustments in my DAW after exporting.

I use MobileSheetsPro from Zubersoft to do this. It works quite neatly and can have markup on the sheets. I make up setlists, but it's also pretty quick to just call up a song. Other applications are available; this is just the one I use/like.

Just pointing out that, in the example given, the two guitars may be (likely) panned. Besides volume, making the one remaining guitar in that section more centered (for only that section) can help with the perceived volume. /That may be beyond the scope of the asked question I suppose

New band I'm playing in. Looking for an app (IOS preferred) to manage set lists of leadsheets in pdf format. Basically one pdf per tune. Nothing fancy. Just want to be able to run the sets in order for practice Create a set list, order the pdf's. Rehearse. Shuffle. Lather rinse repeat. No mp3 support needed. I see a number of them out there. wondering if anyone on this forum has experience using any of them. Thanks,

I found that it should be a driver issue. Under the MME driver, previewing chords often stutters. Have you tried increasing your audio interface buffers? Many times when using my DAW I have to either increase or decrease the buffers. It depends on what I am trying to do, i.e. record or play back. My problem is my 15 year old win 10 computer.

Are you aware of F5? Press F5 at the measure where you want the change to occur. You will see pull down choices for each legacy instrument. You can do Louder, Fade and some accept negative numbers. There is also Return to Normal that can be used later in the song. There’s more, but try this if you did not know about it. Sometimes I adjust the Edit, Song Form so I convert to One Long Chorus to make separate adjustments as the song proceeds. If you are using F5, then please give a specific example where you cannot get what you want.

The issue: The sound volume of some instruments fluctuates too much between different song parts. Example: when going from verse 1 to chorus 1, I mute the guitar 1 track but keep guitar 2 going. However, the volume of guitar 2 comes in significantly lower than the overall volume of the song. The need: I want to be able to adjust the volume of guitar 2 IN THAT SECTION OF THE SONG (chorus 1) to be even with the overall volume of the song. So far I have only been able to adjust the volume of guitar 2 in the "Mixer Instrument Tracks" BUT, doing so adjust the volume for the entire song NOT just chorus 1. How do I adjust the volume of guitar 2 just for that specific part of the song (chorus 1)? I used the guitar 1 & guitar 2 example but the same need applies to other instruments and parts of the song when they are muted and brought back to life.

Very good lyric and we know and love people who we wish would turn around. "You're riding the landslide all the way down One day you'll find that you can't turn around Just look ahead see the end of the road Don't go" There's a lot of truth in those thought provoking four lines. Very soulful vocals! Excellent BiaB session guys ... they well supported your guitar performances. Wonderful twin guitars in solos That is one good mix. Every track has it's place. Lot of nuances and dynamics too. We enjoyed it, welcome back and Merry Christmas! J&B Thanks J&B for the wonderful encouraging comments! TB

Hi Torrey. Wow!!! This is incredible. I love everything that you and Ron and done. This is first-class listening – lyrically, musically, production-wise and performance-wise. Your arrangement and production captured my attention and held it throughout the song. Moreover, the arrangement and production were a perfect frame for your performances and writing. The first thought that solidified in my mind as I listened was "This is truly superb in all directions." What a great write! --Noel Thanks Noel, your comments made my day! TB

Apparently I've been doing it wrong all these years. I'd invite a girl to the show instead of hoping to find one in the crowd .. <sigh> By the time we finished playing I just wanted to go home and get some sleep. I feel sorry for you man . . . heartfelt condolences. Didn't you consider strong coffee if you could't stay awake? I never had a problem, had girlfriends all thru high school. Not because I was in a band (I took up music late in life) but because I was of a few guys that wasn’t bashful on the dance floor. These lovely and delicate creatures, full of ribbons, curls, perfume and soft were literally intoxicating and overwhelmed any bashfulness I may have had. I should have sued the Campbell Soup company for stealing my motto: M’m, M’m, Good! Page 246. Miller suggests that under the conditions that would have existed throughout most of our evolutionary history in which music and dance were completely intertwined, musicianship/danceship would have been a sign of sexual fitness on two fronts. First, anyone who could sing and dance was advertising to potential mates his stamina and overall good health, physical and mental. Second, anyone who had become expert or accomplished in music and dance was advertising that he had enough food and sturdy enough shelter that he could afford to waste valuable time on developing a purely unnecessary skill.

Well done Ron, A song that is relevant today, yesterday and tomorrow. Lyrically, it's perfect and your vocals were really excellent and drove the songs message home. It's one of those songs that has a message every generation should hear. Great stuff, all the best for 2026. Kind regards THANKS, Lee. I obviously have a very warm spot in my heart for this song as well. Hope you had a great New Year! That was a surprise. I was expecting your patented power-pop sound, but instead I heard a delightful acoustic folk song. Excellent through and through. THANK YOU, Scott. Hopefully 2026 will bring more (happy) surprises for all of us. Happy New Year!

I can help to know what contractions are posssible in the language. Sometimes one can drop a sylable with the contraction. Edit: Also the vernacular, e.g., "Ain't gonna do that no more".

Lee - yes there's a lot of computer based music on this forum and I thought I'd do something a bit more 'real' (glad you heard the genuine & sincere intensions). However I do also admire the amazing skills of all the great computer musicians on the forum, all a bit beyond me! Very pleased you like my simple tune, all the best for 2026!! Cheers from a frosty UK, Carl

Don't tell Kawai Pianos, because they're he's supposed to be endorsing their pianos. Isn't there a connection between Kawai and Siigeru Kawai? Their website states: "After the passing of Kawai founder Koichi Kawai in 1955, Shigeru Kawai succeeded his father as company president." I looked at the 'Shigeru Kawai ' as being the 'Rolls Royce' of Kawai pianos, a bit like Yamaha make the G series Grand Pianos and also the C (Conservatory) series Grand Pianos. The C series is their Rolls Royce model. ( I have a C5 - 6' 7" Yamaha Grand )
