Sync has never been on. I'm sure because, if I turn it on, it plays the Band-in-a-Box arrangement.

Yes, that’s one tool and they work. I thought another way involved a cylinder but it’s possible that is just one of these with a case.

I Am Free Sabrina Maria Yesterday at 05:20 PM Forum: User Showcase
Hey all, I wrote, created and produced this song using all Band In A Box instrumentation. I have BIAB 2025. I mixed the song within GarageBand and mastered with Landr Mastering. It's quite different to what I usually write as I come from a Country Rock background and wanted to try something new. People who have listened to the track say it has a 90's vibe. I hope you like it https://soundcloud.com/sabrinamariamusic/i-am-free 1st verse I close my eyes and start to breathe I’m lost in this feelin’ Forgetting time, just let myself be I’m one with the universe Chorus I Am, I Am Free All it takes is to truly believe 2nd verse Now for the first time I can see My happy ending There’s nothing that I cannot be This love is transcending Chorus I Am, I Am Free All it takes is to truly believe Post-chorus All my dreams are coming true Couldn’t live a day without soul food 3rd verse The past is nowhere to be seen Coz now is all I need I choose hope instead of fear Let go of all that doesn’t serve me Chorus I Am, I Am Free All it takes is to truly believe Post-chorus All my dreams are coming true Couldn’t live a day without soul food All my dreams are coming true Couldn’t live a day without soul food Chorus I Am, I Am Free, so free All it takes is to truly believe Real Tracks Style: _DRMAPOP.STY: Dramatic Pop w/Thump

I suspect those are ferrite beads. They're usually to filter out EMI/EMC rather than clean up the audio, though they can help protect inputs from RF. They usually look rather like this: clip-on ferrite bead, or are heat-shrunk on.

If you purchase the optional Fake Book, you can load the song, open the book, and play and/or sing along. It's your Rock/Pop gig in a box.
I ordered the book through Amazon. Be aware that it weighs nearly 4 pounds—sucker is huge. Have a good pair of reading glasses as the typeface for the lyrics is quite small. The pages are 9" x 12" [Linked Image] For those wondering, posating a page from a book as part of a review is an unambiguous example of Fair Use under Title IX (Copyright Act)..

Re: Sound Card, Audio Interface or Built-in? Matt Finley Yesterday at 03:59 PM Forum: Off-Topic
I agree that can be a problem. I fix it by buying RCA cables that have a little cylinder they wrap around (I’m thinking it is called a toroidal transformer or something like that). Usually takes the hum out. If not, I go after cable runs to make them perpendicular to power cables. Etc. etc.

Re: Sound Card, Audio Interface or Built-in? Gordon Scott Yesterday at 02:52 PM Forum: Off-Topic
RCAs are "OK", but I personally wouldn't go further than that. I have a pair on my mixer and on each of two speakers that are their primarily for connecting a laptop or a tablet, which are normally fine if not powered, otherwise there's the usual issue of hums and twitters. If I need them, in practice I usually feed into them the output of a Logitech Bluetooth audio module and connect via that. I'm thinking more of live sound than studio here, so perhaps I'm being a bit harsh. Any board within the PC is potentially exposed to whatever supply and EMI issue there may be inside the box and/or coming out of the box on signal and ground wires. A DI box can often resolve things, but it's another box and another set of cables and connectors, probably another plug-top power supply (as for the Logitech) and so on.

Re: Print track music MarioD Yesterday at 01:00 PM Forum: Recording, Mixing, Performance and Production Jump to new postsJump to new posts
That's a maybe. If the style is a realtrack you should freeze the track so what you see is what you hear. If the realtrack you want to view does not have a line under it then that is where the maybe comes in. To get that audio track to a MIDI track you will need to convert it via a program like Melodyne, which is expensive. Note you will need the polyphonic version of Melodyne or any other conversion program. If the realtrack has a line under it or if the track is a MIDI track then yes you can do it. Export the track as a MIDI track to your computer. What happens next depends on you: 1-if you can read music you can import the MIDI file to a notation program; Musescore is a free notation program. 2-if you can't read music and need tabs you must convert the MIDI file to a tab file. There are free MIDI to Tabs programs on the web. I hope this helps and good luck.

Hey Janne, Hey this is a really cool song man. The lyrics really speak about the pain of a lonely life and they're very well done. I also like the instrumentation in the mix here. You did a really great job!

Re: Sometimes Dreamers jannesan Yesterday at 12:26 PM Forum: User Showcase
Dreamers are a good subject for a pop song and you have mastered the story into a really catchy one smile Great harmonies are your guaranteed trademark, vocals sound really pleasant. Nice live feel in the mix, enjoyed those acoustic guitars. "I will always add major7th chords to the chorus" - no wonder I like your progressions laugh And this progression just excels in every way, perfect to give this the best 60's pop flavor, there's just not enough music like this being made... To my ears that piano solo at the end sounds bit too jazzy for a pop song wink Janne

Thanks again for your help, and your order. Being self-taught at anything is an adventure. But then, so is formal education. wink About half my orders are via PayPal, and I've had a decent response for this release. I'm wondering how many orders I may have lost do to the S issue, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. I'll just move onward. The learning never stops, until it does. Notes ♫
