Hi, Andrew. Interesting chords in the verse. A bit "out there" - negative harmony isn't really my cup of tea. But the Major 7th chorus more than makes up for it, so all is forgiven.  Nice!

There is a function in BIAB to send the Thru channel out to an external device. At one point I used something called a Voice Live Touch that could harmonize a BIAB MIDI track based on the block chords fed from BIAB. But as far as I know, that’s as far as BIAB can be used to assist anything to do a live arrangement. BIAB is designed to make accompaniment backing tracks. Those tracks can be frozen so the backing track is always the same, but that’s not what BIAB does uniquely best.

I created the workflow video series 2 + years ago and was hoping PGM would address the inconsistencies when they focus on the User Experience in 2026. Unfortunately, they seem to be some what restricted to just GUI improvements. The User Experience is much more than that. They have made many improvements since these video were made, but many of the topics have not been addressed such as zoom, pan, and zoom consistency, https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=802368#Post802368

https://soundclick.com/song/15310132 Not one of Gershwin's better songs, IMHO, but at least it's public domain. Ira's lyrics are ace. I tried to take some inspiration from Chet Baker's brilliant rendition, but quite sure I fell well short of that. This is one of my favorite songs to call on a casual. Great job with the vocals and harmonica. Digging it from start to finish!

What a stunning track, Floyd! You hit the nail on the head nothing beats the thrill of the human touch, a pen, and a blank sheet of paper. The soul and truth in this song are exactly why AI will never replace real artistry. It's wild how the universe works, turning a personal therapy session into a crucial turning point for your musical. It fits that narrative vibe perfectly. The musical arrangement is top-notch your piano work and those PRS leads sound incredibly tasty over that BIAB foundation. "Paper and Pen" is an absolute gem. Keep rocking! 🎸 Andi ;-)

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!
