All... The suite of free air windows plugins Which a lot of Studios go Bonkers over Has a flutter plugin called flutter 2. Also for pups clicks and Noise there is of course the PG noise removal plugin which on certain tracks might be useful I found. Om Om Dan is trying to remove Wow & Flutter from an old recording caused by the tape recording. The program you suggest is adding flutter not correcting it from what I seen.

A very nice intro, and the rest is also very good. Excellent work on the vocals and accompaniment. I enjoyed listening to it. Laurent Thanks so much for taking time to have a listen and comment! I appreciate it! TB

Alan, no apologies needed at all for multiple reasons for the repost! First of all, few people can relate to the tremendous struggles you've endured lately. So sorry to hear about your son-in-law! I pray that you can be strong for your daughter. Alan, you have always been such an encouragement to everyone in this forum community and it's a much brighter place when you are able to participate with song posts and comments! You are one of the very best here at using BIAB RealTracks and much can be learned from your use of BIAB! This smooth jazz piece sounds wonderful and definitely worthy of several reposts! Be strong and take care, TB

Rob, it's a beautifully smooth sounding jazz piece! An unwind at the end of a long day type of tune that I really like! The sax solo sounds wonderful, but I can also see how a harmonica part would also be right at home here! Great job! TB

<...snip...> Especially when you are playing trumpet in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade in 30F temperature - been there - done that. Here in South Florida, the winters are usually mild. But when a huge deep-freeze blizzard hits the northeast states, we might get the tail end. Night temperatures in the low 40s and only 60 in the day. Then it warms back up to the 60s at night and 70s in the day typically the next day, and rarely a couple. My first year of high school, our band marched in the Orange Bowl parade. It's something they did every year. Yes, it was one of “those” nights. I had long pajamas under my band uniform, and still froze. The next year I had a gig offer. I asked the band director for advice. He told me to take the gig. We can march with one less saxophone, and the gig experience will be good for you. Even though the band marched in the Orange Bowl every year, that was the last one for me. On New Year's Eve, there are more gigs available than there are musicians to fill them. So it's easy to get booked. Plus, it's the one night of the year when we get paid what we think we are worth, thanks to supply and demand. Notes ♫

Yes the $49 offer on the arranger is a very good deal but it does revert to the normal price after the year subscription is up. Of course you can cancel it at your will.

Elaborate indeed! From what I can find out about 14,000 USD but only available in Japan for now. An specialized international retailer, Taro's Trade, can source one but on top of the basic price and shipping there is also import duty, additional tariffs, purchase tax or vat to take into consideration where applicable. And because the unit is 100 volt Japanese, they may require a voltage convertor to function in your local areas. Still a fantastic instrument played by a true master. Jeff

Thanks Matt and yes, you’ve got it. In BIAB, a RealTrack isn’t a fixed audio file until it’s frozen or exported. What you’re seeing in the Tracks View or Audio Edit Window is a representation of generated data that only becomes audio when BIAB renders it. Once you export that track to a DAW, it’s rendered audio and becomes static, any editing happens after the fact. This is where things differ fundamentally. If you generate and export four individual RealTracks (either in BIAB or in a DAW), each one creates its own unique performance of the same chords. The notation, phrasing, and timing will all be different because each is a separate generation. However, when those same instruments are combined using the RealTrack Medley Maker, they all share the exact same generated performance and notation while remaining discrete instruments. That’s something you cannot recreate by exporting multiple individual RealTracks, each export will always be a different performance. The Medley Maker is one of several tools that are bypassed when users export tracks early and do all arranging in a DAW. Staying in BIAB allows you to program fades, crossfades, instrument changes, and transitions automatically, often in a single bar, using BIAB’s generation engine instead of manual DAW editing. If anyone wants to dig deeper into how this works, I’m happy to discuss it here. It’s actually simpler in practice than it sounds.

Hi, Alan. Thank you for the introduction and for listening! Sometimes I get quirky or satirical and I'm thinking of putting those songs in an album called, "Pressing the Buttons." Most of my songs are pop songs that are a travelogue of my life, like "Stay Here Now," "Just Another Weekend," "Summer Day"... I have them on my website at https://www.johnwalradt.com/music/index.html in case you'd like to get a taste of them without scouring this site. No cookies, no tracking. I'll take a look to see what songs you have to have a listen. It looks like you're familiar with the California landscape. I've been through Bakersfield a couple of times on the way to Three Rivers on highway 65. Thank you for writing! John

Catchy tune that seems to encourages the audience to sing along, which I think might be your intention. I like the instrumentation. Any BIAB tracks? As per my original post, drum midi only feeding SSD5 to build the kit and move snare stick & xstick and fills around

Good tune, clever title and lyrics. Is that you singing? Number one on Soundclick is always fun, I've had a few. Of course, mine got a numbers boost from the forum members so I'm not sure that counts.

Janice, Bud & Peter, this is a masterpiece Everything is as good as it gets in music "On a porch an old man looks up from his weathered hands He gazes at the barn now bordered by corporate land For years the family has stubbornly refused to sell Will it last? …. now only time will tell" This is so true. Most all of the farms around have been bought by corporations. It is so sad. Loved it

One thing to watch out for is that sometimes BIAB updates, automatically modify files. I'm not sure that this happens with stylz_kategories_MENU.txt but it is possible given that PG Music often update this kind of search information. To protect your work (if you haven't done this already), I suggest you make a copy of your modified file so that you can easily recreate it if ever it gets overwritten. Great catch Noel! I was getting ready to post that when I saw your warning!
