Well done. Did not know the original, so had a listen to that, too. A good cover. fj
Thank you, Floyd, especially for taking twice the time to also listen to the original song. Much appreciated. Of course, it helps a lot if you have a great original to start with
Great job with your windy thingy. You create a depressive and sad mood, very well done. Love that! But, real man™, don't cry, they carry on. Or, as Dave Grohl gently puts it: "Done, done, on to the next one"
Hi Nigel, Fun jumps out of my speakers (almost). You are so good in reviving the old songs/melodies. The sax seemed to play in my room! (now I need to shout Ya, Ya too, or so). Your vocals are well suited for this kind of songs. Really great! I'm not a very big van of jazz, but your songs are a pleasure to listen to. Really! Hans
Spaghetti western, definitely. Pretty cool choice of guitars, creates the right mood. Sometimes the guitars come in a bit too late for my taste, but that's just a minor nit. Cool song anyway...
I love the dark mood you create with both the lyrics and the really good choice of instruments. I think this is my new favorite song of yours. Well done!
Hi David, To start with the song itself: Great! Very good vocals. Oscar's vocals are very pleasant to listen to, and the BG-vocals too A nice melody and use of instruments. Lovely lyrics. But the thing that amazed me a lot was that ton of work you had to do to create all this! And I read you are able to automize some processes. That's great. I think I once told you that I wanted to do a duet with an AI voice. I bought some vocals from Emvoice, but, beside a simple vocal melody, I couldn't manage to get me that duet. That's why I still use humans... But what you can do is very, very good! Hans
Maybe I just have a sick sense of humor, but I laughed so hard all the way through this that my fat ol' belly was jiggling! Unique song and funny video ... and great sounding bass. Brad
Hi Brad, yes, I think you have a that. Like we. But I gave it some message, along with the fun; Obese is a problem and our food and drinks help to let that problem grow. In my country we have a suggar tax on drinks with sugar in it. I don't know if other countries have it too. Ooh, Belgium too. It doesn't help much, I think. I also let that fat guy overcome his shame. That's a good thing too, I hope. It was Marty's granddaughter (12 yrs) who asked Marty if that man (me) was making jokes on fat people, because she has fat friends to. That's where I changed the lyrics in overcoming the shame. Good thinking of her! And Marty had a lot of fun, while playing the bass. And good too!

Hi Mario, you're always on my party. Well, more to come soon! I am happy you enjoyed the video too. It is always a challenge to make them. Marty does 3 videos a week, I think. I can't. I hope we can do something about it, as I wrote to Brad, taxing those companies so to force them offering more healthy food. I know, healthy food is not fun to eat. We eat vegan meat 4 times a week. I can't say I like it all, but less meat can help on many frontiers. But here we are only for the music. Glad you like it!!!

But most people who diet end up gaining back the weight and more, and an exercise routine is difficult for most people to maintain. Certainly, obesity is a real issue. But from what I've heard from fat people who get told this, this particular message is rarely helpful. Still, nicely done. And yes, even the bass.
Hi David, thanks for the compliments on the song from a musical standpoint. But IM(H)O you missed a point in my song. I don't have the message you wrote I had. Look what I wrote to Brad and Mario. My points are; being fat gives a lot of problems you can't overcome easily. Shame is one of them. But it's good if you overcome that. And we also need to think about how to solve the convenience of getting fat fast food. Taxes are one of them, but these companies must have their own responsibility. Not just the big wallet. But I know that won't be easy. But health problems that arise from this also cost a lot of money. Thanks for watching and listening, Hans
Thanks guys. I was able to download it ok. In the previous version the About/Help and the gear were both inoperative, but Windows required an upgrade too. I'm thinking the inoperative gear and the need to upgrade Windows were linked somehow. Also, calling something "Scaler 2" never made much sense to me, dropping the 2 does. Now the continued task of learning this "beast" continues. I think my brain is wired differently than these programmer's; very little of this plug-in is intuitive to me.
Hi Fred, Love the song and it's dark lyrics. Your voice is very good. Liked how you sing the chorus, delicious..., even for a highway to hell! The cello is a very good choice for this song. Some wrote the word 'haunting', but sad is a better description I would say. One question: on you site on BandCamp I saw the song is from febuary, 2010. Is this the same one or a remix? Still, a good one! Hans
Hi Noel, and here I am, finally! Like-I think- most others here wrote, a beautiful song! And I always compared your vocals with -the late- Robin Gibb. I still do! Immediatly when I hear your voice, I must think of his voice. And I know you don't know him, because you always say that. It doesn't matter. The song is very nice, lovely to listen to, the lyrics are very good. Glad you are back, Hans
They are in process of renaming Scaler2 to Scaler based on users requesting it. You can verify what version by looking in the "Gear" for the help/about menu. Howver, I did click on the logo and it did bring up the version? By the way, Scaler V3 will be droping in a few months.
You need to go to your account at https://www.pluginboutique.com/myaccount Then carefully select Download 2.9.0 and either Win Or Mac. that should do it for you
I'm trying to upgrade to ver 2.9 but am having troubles. When I click on the Scaler logo to bring up the menu (see red rectangle) nothing happens; I can't bring up the Help/About. Anyone else run into this?
The labels for the lower tracks in the bar settings box don't line up with the pull downs. BIAB 1111 Win. Screenshot attached. Just an inconvenience. Thanks.
The Bob Doyle Media YouTube channel is known for demonstrating how you can creatively incorporate AI into your projects - from your song projects to avatar building to face swapping, and more! His latest video, Next-Level AI Music Editing with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box, he explains in detail how you can use the Melodist feature in Band-in-a-Box with ACE Studio. Follow along as he goes from "nothing" to "something" with his Band-in-a-Box MIDI Melodist track, using ACE Studio to turn it into a vocal track (or tracks, you'll see) by adding lyrics for those notes that will trigger some amazing AI vocals!
Paj. i agree ...ptw is underated...as is rb viz midi. its nice to see you appreciate it cos i feel too few users realise the value. big studios i once frequented sometimes were amazed at its features when i showed examples compared to what they wereuseing. getting older ive forgotten lots of my old midi tricks... fun days. om
Yeah, and the icon menu items are handy but the MIDI Menu in the Edit Menu dropdown has really useful features, including a filter and subfilter in the Replace option which allow you to manipulate a lot of MIDI data quickly and conveniently. I'm editing a few MIDI sets for a band at the moment and it just makes me re-appreciate the feature. I do wish that I was able to record Macros but, still, it just works well with MIDI files. Paj 8^)

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
