Great bit of roulette wheel spinning! Atmospherically it reminded me of something else throughout, but I can't put my finger on it.

For anyone who's interested, my "Lament for Orion" is a reflection on one of the great "tragedies of defeat" that occurred in the recent American baseball playoffs--this young man will have to live with this for a long time: Orion Kerkering Great song idea, Tom! I watched it, and thought of Bill Buckner. I think Orion will get a pass, though. The Dodgers have a manifest destiny to repeat.

Brilliant song. I love the arrangement and production and the use of both rhythm and lead guitars. This song really has a great rhythm section.

I have stayed out of this conversation as I have little knowledge about chord sequencer keyboards but I hope someone can help me understand. I watched the video and it looked like it took a number of presses on the touch screen to get a chord sequence. I have DLed a MIDI song, brought it into BiaB so the chords are inserted into the chord window, picked a style, then pressed generate. I can also have a BiaB demo song put into the chord window. IMHO, and I may be wrong about this, both processes are easy to execute and have thousands of styles to pick from in the styles window. Note that I can use both RTs or MIDI styles. Granted PGM could have a better filtering system for picking a style but to me BiaB is the better route to take. YMMV PS - Steve this is no knock against you or anyone else into chord sequencer keyboards. I'm just trying to understand. Noted that you will need a keyboard along with BiaB so that is another expense.

This an excellent song, Andrew! I wouldn't say writing lyrics isn't a strong point as this song, words and music, are truly captivating. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Something New coming in the next week or two. I am sworn to secracy so that is all I can say now. Keep an eye out in the Scaler Forum!  Binding chords is a nice way to use the chords in a real fashion, but it blew me away when I found no way to record the performance back into Scaler. This seemed like a major dead end to the idea of building tracks inside of Scaler.

Nicely crafted, Marty! That's a cool fusion of styles, and I REALLY like your vocals. Your use of the BiaB soloist fooled me, as I went back looking for who got the human credit for those nice accents. So AAA+ for that. Rockin' bass, too! (Human? YES! Had to check again.) Of course, "prime directive" will always make me think of Star Trek, so...hope your tune lives long and prospers! Well, thanks very much, Ron. Yep, that's what I thought of too. I'd watch the original Star Trek with my younger sister. She would have snacks and drinks waiting for us. Their directive was no interferance, but our species has a different code.  We create. Marty, What a great song! I, too, like to experiment with mixing styles that don't seem to be a good match - until you play them! And these work perfectly together. Probably my favorite by you. Really, really nice! Alan Hi, Alan. It always means a lot to me that you even listen to my songs, and your comments add so much. Yep, I was thinking of you as these styles got together. It's like Hapkido --there are no rules. Well, one rule that is very rarely broken and that is no swing with even. What a smooth and beautiful love song, Marty! Love the lyrics, cool arrangement and vocals, plus that guitar solo totally hits the spot. Ya just can't have too many positive and beautifully written love songs written from the heart. Thanks, Chay. Your own love songs are coming along so well with your new singers, and your instrumentals always feels like there is a lot of heart AND soul. Spot on with those lyrics---and even more consuming in our younger years.  I love the sound you created and that infectious groove. Cool guitar solo. Hi, Scott, I always like your comments and like your puns. So, I understand this one of yours to be, "Gee, spot on with..." Yeah, it doesn't consume me nowadays, and it's actually quite liberating.

Just to clarify: Are you using the BIAB VST plugin or dragging the tracks from the BIAB render folder into Cubase via Windows File Explorer?

Dang, Herb. I was almost afraid to listen to this because I'm definitely not a heavy rock listener in general. So glad I did! This was awesome. The melody softens the edges and that vocal was killer (oh, AI, you are getting too damned good!). Thanks. Listening to things that are not specifically in your favorite genre is always a good thing. It can often stimulate new thoughts and ideas. As I pointed out, only the drums and vocals in this production are AI. Thanks for listening

I just insert the chords manually across the bar lines and line breaks to match the phrasing I want, then tweak the spacing in the chord sheet to make it look right.

Gordon, I didn’t want to get into it here, but I did see some info on workarounds to make Windows accommodate larger limits. We can get into that if the large RealTrack files don’t install. I’m waiting for that answer. Quite right. I think Andrew's suggestion is probably the place to start. Hopefully that will/has shed more light of what's going wrong. I'm just doing a search in my /bb directory for .wma files greater than 4Gig. (The OP has UltraPAK, so I'm presuming(!), for now, no big .wav files). --- OK, no .wma file greater than 4G found.. I guess there may be marginal cases close to that, but one imagines not too many. Edit: For Info: I've just repeated that looking for any file greater than 4Gig. None found, even on an Audiophile installation.

Have you thought of using AI for this? There are loads of tools that you can feed a script and it will generate the voice over. You can even feed it an MP3 of your own voice and it will generate the voice over in your own voice. Heygen is one such tool. Saves a lot of effort and stress😀

Hi Ember, Thanks for checking back in. Still the same issues. I sent Simon with PG Music my files. Still waiting to hear back from him. Also I heasr back this evening from a fellow North Carolinian who now has my files (Jim Fogel). He also is detecting artifacts in my piano file. Fingers crossed some one can get it all figured out.
