I am confident that having no headphone output except at 48k causes the conflict I think so too. Do you have the latest M4 drivers? Just asking, not suggesting you get those. Do you have any MOTU drivers installed, or are you using system drivers? If you do have them, are they recent? You mentioned a new computer, so ...

Can you explain / show this "dragging Chord track to Tonalic right from header of Chord Track in mixer" I have been complaining for a long time that there is no easy way to drag chords out of BIAB like you can in the BIAB plugin. I am more interested in dragging to the DAW.

Donny, it sounds like you are really tired. Am I right? Regardless this is a good song. I didn't mind all of those bends, they sounded OK to me. Keep on busking. Yea, I was pretty dang tired then. Thanks for the kind words. Donny G

Got in for a dollar. A dollar thirty Canadian lol. It's pretty easy to use, and you can just duplicate parts on your timeline. If you zoom the timeline out you can do micro beats and chords. With guitar it's pretty extensive, rhythm chords, lines, arps, and other stuff. Pretty cool how you can just do anything on the timeline and it will adapt. Even different loops with different amp configs on the same track. So I was just adding some lines to a song that I've worked on a lot. So when I get the Essential I'll compare to the version I just bought and see what I really need. Maybe they'll add a DI option at a later date. Haven't really played with the effects yet so maybe you can just turn them all off.

Hi Rob! If I had a white jacket, bowtie and martini glass, I would have used them to listen to this! It's amazing how some songs just take one to a place, and your song did that for me. Sax is good. I followed the rhymes in your lyrics closely - Knee Wobbler and I have an assignment dealing with rhyming - so knowing your attention to prosody, I was interested to see what you did in terms of both phrasing and rhyming. Very good! Andrew

I do agree with you as well on them points Charles. As a long time user of BIAB they have had quite a bit of lead way in this field. I have no doubt Celemony is a very capable of producing top notch software as I have also been a user of Melodyne for many years. There are not very many DAWS left out there that has not adapted ARA into their program. I am still waiting for my essential license to try this limited version but I am in no hurry at this point since there is plenty still to play with since my latest software upgrades with BIAB and other stuff.

Hi B.D.! A very thought-provoking song - and I was somewhat distracted by the issues raised in your lyric that I sometimes forgot to focus on the music - and maybe that's the point? Musically, I liked your use of dynamics and arrangement change throughout the song to provide contrast - some passages in anger/frustration - others in reflection and resignation. I detected the I - V - vi - IV progression in parts but didn't follow through to see where else it went - that progression still sounds fresh. What I don't understand - irrespective of the context - is why people can be happy to support (or at least comply with or tolerate) some of this stuff - and apparently there's a whole psychology to that. Good song! Andrew

Hot little number Pete, Really liked the style and guitar choices. Perhaps as you say a little hot, especially at the top of the chorus, but if still works. You do have a good solid singing voice, really like it. Thank you, I'm gonna redo the vocals as it's bugging me that they are too hot lol. I'm sure I'm hearing it more as I know it's there!! Your comment is much appreciated . Pete Great job, kind regards.

I think you may get the award for the longest song introduction.  I don't mind the synth vocals. I think it would be to cumbersome for me to put them together. It's easier for me to make 10+ vocal takes until I get it halfway right. Beautiful melody and arrangement. Yes, there is some 70s flavor but the sound is a style of its own.

I have a C-note for the bottle. Quite a rollicking song! You keep outdoing yourself. Love that Dave guitar solo (oooh, and a mini bass solo). Cool harmony in the ending.

Hi Ron Resolution challenge completed. Really nice choice of style and the key change at the bridge(?) worked really well. Good vocals, you have a smooth delivery, you never seem to have blips or rawness like I do. Another good'un, Kind regards Why, THANK YOU, Lee! Yes, OF COURSE I have blips and rawness in my vocal takes. But I edit them out, or try to. Have posted many times that *I can't sing*. But I do know how to shape a vocal performance so that it's not distracting for the listener. If I have a talent, that may be the one. Glad you enjoyed the tune! DC, I'm listening with headphone so the hard panning seems VERY hard panned. For cans I suspect bringing the hard ones in to about 70 or 80 would sit better other than for psych. The kick clicks a little too much for my ears - I know that tinnitus scoops my hearing in a way that accentuates the kick click. I enjoyed the vocals - the harmonies are cool. fabulous arrangement/dynamics and a fab song overall. THANKS, rayc! Understand about the hard panning. FWIW, there are six guitars, and I organized them in three pairs. The first two guitars are panned 100% L&R. The second two are panned 60%, and the last two are panned 40%. The first pair are more prominent in the mix, and are active over about 2/3 of the song. I could probably pull them all in a bit. But...100% of my songs use hard panned instruments, usually guitars. It's just my thing, for better or worse, and I like it myself, which is why I keep at it. Still, there may be some rebalancing in order, and I'll listen for this again. Am not hearing the kick clicks but I'll look at those as well. I have tinnitus as well. Crickets. All the time. Glad you enjoyed the vocals (blush) and the song overall. It's a trifle, but what's life without trifles?

Hi Hans A really good choice of style, love the violin. Yes it’s different, but it works and works well. I have a penchant for upbeat Irish/folk music, so this really appeals to me. Great song, kind regards.

Nice work with the instrumentation, especially that piano. Your lyrics are really good, especially the chorus. Speaking of the chorus, it has a theatrical sound to it. The wind instrument (dizi flute?) sounded cool.

Hi Sol, There’s nothing wrong with singing about sadness. Like love and laughter it’s something we all have to experience. I think I’ve mentioned in other posts of mine that singing and songwriting for me is cathartic and helps me to get all my insights, frustrations and feelings out. No point bottling them up….but I do! This is a great expressive song you’ve written and sung. I enjoyed it, kind regards.

Hi Lee. I really enjoyed listening to this. As you sang, images of those road trains that we have in the long-haul desert regions of Australia kept appearing in my mind. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=32196&filename=road train.jpg) What began as an exercise turned into an excellent song. --Noel

A free-flowing vibed instrumental with great instrumentation - very enjoyable - but I felt that mix could have been made smoother by evening out the various stems' volumes.

Alt+Tab is good. Also remember Alt+F4 which closes windows one at a time. This is useful when you can’t figure out which window has you stuck.

Hi Chris, In a way, I hear this song in French! It has a beautiful structure, I think, as only French musicians/poets can. It's a wonderfully sweet, dreamy love song (unfulfilled, of course, that's typically French) with a beautiful mandolin. Suno's vocals are excellent here, although a French voice singing in English (think Charles Aznavour's "She") would probably have been a good choice as well. Anyway, I thought it was very beautiful! Hans
