Hi Herb Oh yeah, really enjoyed the wailing guitar in the intro. A really powerful number, not just musically and vocally, but lyrically. Sounds like you’ve found the perfect place for you to be in this world, and I'm sure it’s beautiful. Great song Herb, enjoyed my couple of listens. Kind regards. That "wailing guitar" is slide. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for listening a couple of times.

This song is composed by Milton Ager, with lyrics by Jack Yellen, published in 1927. It became popular in the first half of the 20th century and typified the Roaring Twenties and became a Tin Pan Alley standard. Both Ager and Yellen were elected to the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In my version I sing and play guitars, tenor banjo and Napolitan mandolin made by Luigi Embergher in 1902. I produced this at my home with Band in a Box and Reaper. ****** Song Summary ************* Key=C , Tempo 120, Length (m:s)=3:34 Style is _BIGEASY.STY (Big Easy New Orleans Old and New) MelodyCustom Synth is 072 - Clarinet, Oberkrainer [SN0322] RealTracks used: RealTracks in style: ~1792:Tuba, DixielandMedium Sw 110 RealTracks in style: 2165:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm NewOrleansSwinginPop Sw 130 RealDrums in style:NewOrleansShuffle^04-a:Kick Shuffle , b:Ride, Shuffle Link?

Charlie. While this is good to know...You are offering yet another workaround, without admitting there is a problem. Very expected. What you offered is a complete style reload not reverting to original project. I have seen many things going south, especially when style previously loaded had special tracks, like audio, silence., frozen, different time signatures and other type of tracks. Undo needs to Undo last action - whatever steps it took to get there. Period. That would be a first step to fix. Second, as I've mentioned possibility to take snapshot(s) of project which would include all customization, loaded synths, bar, midi, settings, partial regens, volume automations etc. I usually end up with 5-10 project copies, mainly because I can't rely on undo.

If I want to have melody harmony, on it's own without the melody itself, there is now way to do it (well not that I can see) If I harmonise then this harmony will be availble as the song plays but I don't know if this is actually stored anywhere. To materilais this harmony requires my to have it on the Melody track.

< The one and only true solution, without loading "ghost" project and retaining original would be a clean Undo + history, so you could potentially go back 20 steps or more without risking of losing anything. > Depending on the setting selected in the (+) sub menu, the StylePicker is linked to the Recently Selected/Favorites List and is selectable to either automatically save highlighted styles or not save them. Each project can have the complete StylePicker Style search saved and associated with that project. This linked feature allows the user to search hundreds of styles over time without risk and instantly return to the original style. The Recently Used/Favorites list when set to link with the StylePicker and to save auditioned styles retains up to 250 of the most recent styles and 250 of any marked Favorites.

The BIAB 2026 Manual (PDF) says this on page 74 (per the StylePicker): "You can also audition a style by actually playing it over the current chord progression of your song. The green arrow button plays your song with the currently highlighted style." But this is not working. I select a style and it is highlighted but BIAB doesn't play the style that is highlighted when I press the green play button in StylePicker. It still works in 2026. In recent design upgrades, developers have improved the StylePicker giving users multiple ways to customize searches and auditions to personalize the StylePicker to their preferences. To audition a style to play over the current highlighted style, do the following steps. Highlight a style Press the Apply button Press the green play button To continue auditioning styles over the chord progression of your song, highlight another style and press the Apply button The Apply, Generate, and Demo buttons are active buttons and the selections made in the (+) sub menu affect how these buttons react to auditioning styles, move between playing style demos or current chord progression, saving search lists, and many other user settings to customize and personalize StylePicker searches.

Hi Ron! Thank you for your Ultra Fidelity Offering! And thank you for removing the country from that style - supported by your harmonies, it sounded more like something The Rembrandts would produce - and good! I loved those shots in the middle section as well. Songs about aliens, UFOs and conspiracies is a very untapped theme I reckon! Andrew

Super tune, Noel! LOVE the theme of creating one's own future. An inspirational message, and nicely packaged. Great arrangement. Like how you saved the backing vocals until later in the song. They add a nice dynamic lift that sees the song through to the end. The backing track is quite nice, too, as is the mix/master. The vocals are quite serviceable and don't distract from the song or the message. Definitely a great tool to bring these songs to life. Hey, how deep *IS* that never-got-finished folder??? Would love to hear more.  Thanks for being a constant source of positivity here. The world needs more of that, and soon...

Hi Noel! I really enjoyed the shift from the verse in the minor to the chorus in the relative major - if that’s what it was - cool anyway. I was trying to work out the instrument playing in between verse and chorus - I couldn’t tell if it was a guitar or synth - but sounded arpeggiated? Nice sounding anyway. Another piece of positive work from you. I’m intrigued by your inspiration for lyric writing - drums playing in the background - that’s a new one! Andrew

Ron, This is another Pop-Rock gem. It immediately grabs you and holds you start to finish. Love the arrangement and excellent blend of instruments. Great, great vocal - love where it sits in the mix here. The mix is pro and the master has an incredible sheen to it - big & crisp. Sounds awesome through my speakers. Absolutely one of your very best! Bob

Sounds good, Bob! Hard to come up with an original blues lyric without it sounding cliched, but you pulled it off. Harp sounds good to me, nice playing. I actually have no problem with the vocal, fit the song well. Good one, enjoyed!
