Wow, that is indeed dark! I wouldn't trust the sentiments too much. Sinéad O'Connor was infamously very, very, anti-English. There was a lot of politics going on. In this case, the "black boys on mopeds" crashed and killed themselves. They were being followed/pursued by police because the moped was stolen. IIRC they tried to escape by going through some barriers that blocked the police car and the boys crashed a little later.

There’s a touch of Santana in that opening riff. A great choice of style for a very good song, and the guitar work is excellent. Bravo on the duet. Laurent

Yes, but prior versions also. Just drag and drop the audio file and instant Chords with entire tempo map perfectly aligned! No buttons to push at all. This has been on the market for several years. BIAB can't touch this!

Seems reasonable. Does any other software already have this? Of course, SMP Version 5?

Although we use many more recent Izotope Fx we have used Nectar 2 since its release a decade ago. Why? We love its reverb module which is an EMT 140 plate sim. It was dropped when v3 was released. Also we don’t use any default presets as we have established our own and have use depending on the tune’s vibe. But even then we are likely to do some tweaking. How Nectar 2 has survived all of the OS updates and new OS versions over the years is amazing. Everybody tells us it should not run. 😀 We have also used Waves CLA Vocals on occasion. Not bad at all but we love that Nectar reverb. J&B .

The vocals of Janice are always so in place! I really like your good old music. This song reminded me of the ones of The Band - and that's a big credit. And we much appreciate that big credit! Thanks for mentioning the vocals also. J&B

Ha, i like how you say "the song didn't finish on its own." So it took longer. Man, i get that!! The other day i listened and watched on YT --a fine video performance. But today i listen on SC with headphones. What a fine Sunday morning treat, Janne. Yeah, i got a black belt in Hapkido, a discipline without rules. You are always briliant without rules, and this song is excellent proof. "plagal cadence" Yeah, break the rules and there is always someone to name it as a new rule. Good guitar opening, then the sax draws the line to the relaxed melody that supports the feel and lyrics so well. Really good visuals in your lyrics, Janne. You draw relaxing, even forgiving, moods in the video that fits the song like a glove even OJ would admit owning. Did you have to regenerate much of that sax? It's so perfect.

Really catchy groove, strong singing and Maestro Bell absolutely cooks! I waited for the bell but never heard it. Tried both versions. Oh well. EDIT: listened again, finally heard it Thanks, Bob. Right? i often write with Dave in mind, like this one. But when i have a song that i feel he wouldn't want to play on, he knocks me out with what he creates for it. He's a true session player --AND a singer who can write great songs. Hi Marty (and Dave)! A good bit of Santana-like Latin rock happening here, and I like it. I heard the bell at the end - nice touch - and the Bell at the beginning and throughout - good work! The lyrics are like a chapter from the book of Proverbs - giving wise advice. Talking about books, I was trying to read the cover of the book being held by the soul in the last scene and couldn’t quite make it out - Headenly Hooved? Andrew Thanks, Andrew. Hehe, i see what you did there with the bell. Nice! Yeah, one book was supposed to say Earthly Deeds and the soul's book would say Heavenly Rewards. That's why there should be a lowercase i for Ai, but i enjoy its wonkiness. Marty, Wow! This is such a great piece. I love it when you and Dave pull out all the stops. Tremendous vocals, great write, Dave's super chops and a terrific mix. What more could anyone want? This one has it all! Great video as well! LOVED IT! Bob Thanks, Bob. This is so much fun, and you make it more so. Marty, your video productions are getting so good lately I feel like I should be buying popcorn at the door. I especially loved how you and Dave jammed yourselves right into the video! It’s hard not to feel connected to a song when the bassist and guitarist look like they’re about to quantum leap straight out of the screen. 🆒 🎬 Let’s be honest: Marty isn’t just a musician, he’s the undisputed literary mastermind behind the critically acclaimed self-help essential, “Good Deds - Hexarlly Rooveds.” ◔◡◔ It’s the ultimate guide for dodging haters, locking your inner gremlins in the basement, and adulting so hard your soul finally stops crying in the corner. (ˆ◡ˆ) As for the tune itself? It’s a thoroughly delightful, Santana-esque cruise through Latin-rock paradise, with Dave dropping sweet, electric licks in all the right places. But let’s give credit where credit is due: the Undisputed Star of this entire production is the one and only Marty Straub:bass player extraordinaire, groove merchant, and master storyteller. 📜 👋 Your vocals are so clear, on-pitch, and forward in the mix that I felt legally obligated to sit up straight and take notes. The whole mix is cleaner than a whistle, with every instrument and voice comfortably lounging in its own designated audio-spectrum easy chair. 🎤 👌 🎧 This is a stellar follow-up to your brilliant "Santa Fe" track (which I totally missed while I was away). Honestly, Marty, it’s a pure joy to watch and hear your creations. And let's be real....it is indeed a very wise person who takes notice of your profound insights. (Mostly because if we don't, our souls won't get their wings and ring that It's a Wonderful Life bell at the end!) ֍ Brilliant stuff, my friend! 🔥 ༼♥ل͜♥༽ Keep 'em coming! 𝐼𝓏𝓏𝓎 𝓌𝒶𝓈 𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 Holy crap, Izzy! You are by far my favorite writer --and not just when you're talking about my song. Every comment you add on this forum is freakin' awesome in its depth AND its phrasing, word choices and perspective. With a mind as creative as yours, you should be writting books --at least short stories, or commentaries on the state of the world --or anything. You know how we say Janice Merritt can sing a phonebook and make it sound amazing. i bet you can rewrite phonebooks to be best sellers. You remind me of John Lennon's 2 books, but more heady. Intellectual while plebeian, an Everyman's angle that wasn't readily noticeable. “Good Deds - Hexarlly Rooveds.” ◔◡◔ <-- yeah, once we all understand that... Well, you already have a good handle on it. Man, this place is a lot less colorful when you are away.

I have used Nektar 4 from Isotope for years and would not release my vocals without this processing. But recently this has been failing me. I recently tried using the free Vocal Menace from Chris Liepe https://www.mymusicalvoice.com/p/vocal-menace-by-chris-liepe This has bite which I have not heard from Nektar. Using this has encouraged me to start looking for alternate options. Chris offers a bigger package at ~80 USD. How about https://thraudio.com/ as an option? It is ~50 USD, but before I download the 30 free version, does anyone know about this product? Or have any other recommendations for me. Thanks

Hi John, Yes i did hear about the Win 10 extension but unfortunately my music computer has been giving me problems for a couple of months now. It is another intermittent problem that I can't track down. The last time, about 2 years ago, this kind of problem happened it was in the shop for 3 weeks and it costed me a lot. I figured it was time to bite the bullet and pay those high prices.

By the way, Microsoft extended Windows 10 support an additional year (for security updates), so you can keep using Windows 10 until October 2027. That was good news for my home built Windows 10 tower (which can't be upgraded to 11 because it doesn't have TPM 2.0 and my i7 processor isn't supported by Windows 10). And the component prices are ridiculous right now. A year ago, I bought two 4 TB external Seagate USB hard drives for $99 each. Today that same drive is $180 for just one drive. I've seen memory prices and SSD storage increase 75-90% as well in the past year (because data centers are buying up all the components to support AI, leaving us lowly consumers with significantly higher prices). So I'm happy with the one year Microsoft reprieve, since my tower computer is very capable (32GB RAM, 11 TB 7200 RPM SATA storage, i7 processor). I'm not familiar with zinstall, but will follow this thread for a potential solution when the time comes.

This sounds fresh! I would call it progressive children's folk  Shades of 16th century England and 1970's British folk with cool melody and arrangement. I like how the melody and chords go from minor tones to the major root. Lots of interesting variation, danceable rhythm and very unique sound created with simple instrumentation. I can imagine little forest dwarves dancing happily and playing piccolos together on their march celebrating the successful hunting of ... sorry, can't imagine what  Janne

Interesting message with dilemmas, whatever we choose there can be unpredictable consequences. And bigger the wishes the less likely they come true, so you have chosen nice approach with smaller and more intimate wishes. Made me think, so thanks for the philosophical lesson I don't have any wishes for your song, because all the good elements are still there, very much alive: interesting arrangement, nice guitars, enjoyable vocals, excellent mix. Good work with the video also! Janne

Thankful (SoundCloud) Thankful (YouTube) A song about finding one positive thing among the many disappointments of the past day and then feeling thankful for it and falling asleep peacefully with that thought in mind. I started writing this already in January this year, but for some reason the song didn't finish on its own, so I had to do it myself and it took time... I usually don't follow any known chord progression, I just select chords which sound good and intriguing for the current song and mood. I'm mostly self-learned by playing... Several years ago I read some lesson on chord theory in the web, but I got annoyed because it said that the progression should always resolve via V → I. And of course I always want to play against strict "rules". While writing this song I remembered that case and decided to show that IV → I (or iv → i) is equally good, providing a softer landing to a restful state, fitting with the message of this song. At some point I learned that this kind of progression is not that rare, there is even name for it: "plagal cadence". As usual there are some stranger chords, just to break rules in another way  BIAB provided the lovely dreamy soul band with nice acoustic guitar and a great sax soloist: RealDrums: ElecPopFunkJeffEv RealTracks: Electric bass #4854 Electric guitar PopFunkySoulRiffs #3751 Acoustic guitar Baritone Rhythm #3717 Electric piano #4505 Vibes #3765 Sax Tenor Solo #2020 Vocals: Synthesizer V - NOA Hex RDX (lead + backing), Marvin & Saros & Choir voices #1 (backing) AI: lyrical advisor & video creator Melodyne: Sax solo modifications Mixed in Cakewalk Sonar (Neoverb, Ozone 12, Nectar 4) Lyrics: [Verse] I didn't get in your favor maybe our time was not due but when I was weak, you were my saver I'm thankful for the chance with you. [Chorus] I used to go to sleep thinking where I fell short but today I recall one moment I can be thankful for. [Verse] I had too high expectations gale storms hushed the song of the whales but I saw the waterfowl migration I'm thankful for the leading sails. [Chorus] I used to go to sleep thinking where I fell short but today I recall one moment I can be thankful for. [Bridge] I may not know the author of this play yet I'm thankful for this day. [Verse] Even in fights for survival when riches don't make my life feel fair I feel for the troubles of my rival we'll be thankful for the weight we share. [Chorus] I used to go to sleep thinking where I fell short but today I recall one moment I can be thankful for. [Outro] I close my eyes with peace of mind soothing dreams 'til dawn. ----------- Janne

This appears as an place where the new Playable RealTracks/RealDrums is ideally suited for. I've never used the RealDrums Playable Tracks but it's a straightforward process and as a transition, should fit unnoticeable in the mix. I do work with Playable RealTracks quite a bit and I think the concept is a powerful tool. Because of the Midi component and ease of editing Midi, you may be able to locate a nice transition and copy it from an existing Midi file song and avoid having to do very much editing. Here's what BIAB Chat says about Playable RealDrums: "## Playable RealDrums in Band-in-a-Box 2026 **Yes—Band-in-a-Box 2026 includes “Playable” content that applies to RealDrums parts via Playable RealTracks Hi‑Q sounds.** In **Chapter 3**, Band-in-a-Box 2026 includes **Playable RealTracks Set 5**, described as “over 50 new ‘Playable RealTracks’ Hi‑Q sounds… which match many of our RealTracks so you can easily switch from **RealTracks and RealDrums parts to MIDI notes** while maintaining the instrument sound.” In practice, this means you can take parts that would normally be audio-based (including RealDrums parts) and convert/perform them as **MIDI notes** while keeping a matching, realistic sound. ## Related 2026 drum feature (separate from “Playable”) Also in **Chapter 3**, 2026 includes **two new “RealDrums Stems” sets**, which “allow you to access the individual wave files from each different mic used to record many of our RealDrums.” This is about deeper audio access/mixing control, not MIDI-playability."

Great version, Steve, just wish it were longer. TBH, I wasn't familiar with the Herbie Hancock take but it is a new favorite of mine now. I go to renaissance faires and they all play this tune, except with lutes, recorders, viola da gambas and rebecs. So I'm still getting used to the idea of it being a jazz piece. Love your version, great groove and licks, again, just wish there were more of it. Thanks for posting! TuneMonger- Thanks for the feedback. I thought about playing a bit more on the solo. I may have to revisit this one.

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!
