So, if I haven't purchased the Audiophile version, do I have any use for those files?

For me those minimized icons (which looked like closed "Windows" windows always seemed to take up a lot of space. I'll often cascade the open windows, or just select them from the topline menu (or as OM said, use keyboard shortcuts; however, I run too many programs to remember them, so the menu works for me).

My MOTU Audio Express is actually self sensing so it will auto-adapt to the same sampling rate which is being sent to it. But the sending and recieving sampling rate must be the same. You can't mix sampling rates or you will hear the crackal and popping. I think we may all be in agreement with this. I will only add, I tried to fix everythink at 48K for a long period of time, then there came a point where I just gave up and now my default everywhere is 44.1.

Pretty good song, reminds me of someone, but I just can't figure out who. Although you claim that you still need to work a little more on the mixing, the song is already in pretty good shape. And your vocals and playing are really good. Minor things I would probably look at: - The intro is ace, but it doesn't relate to the rest of the song. I would remove it and save it for a song that it fits better with sonically. - The vocals have a slight but sometimes distracting distortion in the high frequency range. But, as I said, it's already very good and I like it ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) Thanks for having a listen, I appreciate it! As to the intro, I'm satisfied with it! I feel it has purpose because it fits my vision for the song. It avoids a sudden harsh launch into the vocals and is a foreshadowing of the arpeggiated guitars in the chorus! TB

Laurent, this is exceptionally well done! The horns are so good, they really drew me into the song! The mix is beautiful, tight and so pro sounding to me! Not a bad thing to say about this, it's all good! Thanks, TB

As far as Mike, dude, it's your kind of response that has me not coming here anymore. You came in and made a comment that wasn't to help, improve or add ANYTHING beneficial to a post that Floyd obviously put some time and effort into. You felt the need to make some snide remark, act like you didn't make it, then insult the spirit of the thread. . . . dumping on me for things I neither said nor implied. But it IS implied . . . I happen to often wear a "trucker hat", listen to mostly "country" music so yeah . . . It came across as rude. And I agree it's that kind of looking down your nose attitude that keeps me away from this site as well. It was a snide and pointless remark and added nothing to an otherwise enjoyable thread.

<< An item for the Wishlist section maybe?>> No. JAOM suggests four elements to process. BIAB does all four without any bugs, missing components, or steps to sync imported audio with BIAB generated tracks. Posted in the BIAB for Windows rather than the Wishlist thread, these suggestions seem to be more from frustration, which is certainly reasonable, with OM spending hours without success. There's nothing needing simplification in the Stem Splitter process. The process was updated in 2026 and now has little popup explanations throughout. It is a straightforward process. Looking specifically to what OM was attempting; songs he's done in commercial Studios and splitting them out to stems and syncing them to RealTracks, I think he may have better and faster success doing this in RealBand. RB has an easy and manual click track feature that should work on his commercially created songs, recorded with or without a click track. It's simpler and more intuitive than using the BIAB ACW. The RB ACW may be more familiar and simple than the BIAB ACW if he decides it's necessary to use it. RB has the same stem splitter program and all of BIAB's RealTracks are accessible. It would also be helpful to him and the forum in general, to post the how, why and what processes and techniques he spent hours on so many eyes can analyze and help streamline the process in a discussion in this thread.

Hi Peter, Thanks for sharing these TTS-1 troubleshooting steps. As a member of both this forum and the Cakewalk forum I don't recall ever seeing such a concise but complete list in one post. Did you compile the list from one source? If so do you have a link to the original post?

Hi Ron, Great song! Love the guitars. Also really like your vocal, especially the BGVs. Not so mad about the drums, too busy for my tastes. But yeah, great way to kick off 2026! Thanks, Dave. Yeah, those drums seems to be divisive, though I've decided I like them in this song. Glad you enjoyed the tune! This is my first visit to the User Showcase in a while and my first song to listen to. It's quite impressive. Overall everything is glued together in the mix, good lyrics and an admiral vocal and background production. I like your first resolution and the fact you relied on the power of the Style unmodified. Enjoyed my listen. Charlie Whew! Glad I didn't wreck your Showcase forum revisit experience.  Welcome back! 100% of our songs start with a RealStyle (or MIDIstyle), and probably 90% will only use the instruments in that style. I know a lot of folks augment BiaB with different drums, pianos, guitars, etc, and their stuff sounds great. But I can usually get the textures I'm looking for by manipulating a single style, especially if there are more than four instruments in the style.

What a great extemporaneous band! Reminds us of our bluegrass parking lot pickings when sometimes it just all fell together in the good way. Great instrumental performances by you and a cool vocal. Lotta fun! J&B Thanx Janice and Bud, I'm glad you liked it.

Andrew - thanks for posting the pics. As I'm sure you've realized...the Live Rig is a standalone Desktop app - so you can play without having to call up a DAW. Everything else can be used in your DAW like any other effect....

Andrew, You definitely achieved a "heavy" sound here and it sounds great to me! Very clever lyric writing! My favorite part of the song is the chorus section which uses a wonderful melodic structure supported by the perfect sync basslines and guitars moving around it all! Great song! Well done! TB

Ha! Funny and fantastic tune, Floyd. Love the write. Story songs with a twist are the best. Super lead vocals: Strong and expressive with just a touch of playfulness. Love how the harmonies are panned. Super band, too. Those guitar fills are especially nice. BiaB has some similar fills that are technically just as nice, but Rodney's are of course by a musician who's hearing and playing to the song. Very cool. The BiaB remnants hold their own and fit right in. Nice job with the mix. A lot of entertaining musical detail to be heard, and it's all perfectly available for the listener. A song worthy of the re-mix for sure. Can see why this is a favorite. Same for me! Much appreciated, Ron... GREAT song, love the energy. Lyrics were terrific - what a storyline! Fantastic vocals as always. Perfect package. Thanks, Rob....

Dave, you have done a masterful job with this arrangement! It definitely has a Santana vibe which is always a good thing! Your guitar fills and lead parts are as always, top shelf! I'm assuming you are using a Strat here and it sounds wonderful! Chris has such a beautiful voice that is the very definition of pro!! Enjoyed it! Take care, TB

I find 281 Tonalics patterns in the Essential version that I just have donloaded. I wonder if anyone knows how many patterns there are in the 1$-1Month version. And also if are they are kept so they may be be used in the Essential version after the subscription have ended. In Arranger version, For Guitar alone, there are 4,145 individual tonalic results when you query. 1,131 for Bass and 747 for Drums and 412 for percussion. By the way, I installed both the Essential and Arranger versions. However only one version appears in Reaper, the Arranger. Don't know what to think about that at this time. It does appear that Arranger is huge in comparison.

Yes this is recent behavior - I would say it introduced in 2026. Along the lines of making every track the same? But it does have some negative reprocusions. Having you tried to freeze the Audio track so it can't be changed?

G'day Dave Welcome to the Showcase. Your musical pedigree sure gives your mob a heap of street cred. I very much enjoyed the music and images of all 4 of your videos. I loved the images of the 3 sisters and the Blue Mountains vista. Also when I was a young fella I used to ride my Honda Goldwing on many road trips up and down the New England Hwy from Sydney to Tamworth. Great days and memories which your vids sparked. A tribute to Max's late wife is a nice touch. There is quite a large 🦘 mafia on this showcase so y'all should feel right at home 😊 ɹǝpunuʍoᗡ ʎzzI
