Hi, Carl. Exactly as advertised! I love the way it fades away into nothing at the end. Nice.

Hi, Bob. Your lyrics are outstanding: The cars race down Highway 51 Where the old tribe used to run But I can taste the trail of tears In the blowback from the guns The arrangement is moody with an underlying sense of tension, and the vocals like the narration of a street poet. Really, really good.

Hi, Ronnie. Excellent work, as always. Toe-tapping goodness. I used to have a Variax, but it was always a hassle to set up. I sold it to a friend, who gigged the heck out of it.

Hi, Dan. I like the song! The intro didn't work for me. But that's probably just me - it was OK once, but repeated? And again at the interlude? Oh, no... The song builds nicely. The harmonies are nice, but a some of intervals emphasized the synthy-ness of the vocals, like "I know he loves me" at 2:56. Then again, in a world of auto-tune, that's probably a feature and I'm just an old man shaking his fist at the clouds. The "oohs" and "aahs" are really nice. Piano fills sound good, and the mix is excellent. It feels a bit long, but not as long as it actually is, which is good. Nice work, as usual.

This has been a most illuminating thread. I read the whole thing. Thank you. So I'm not trying to hijack the thread, but instead I want to approach the question from the other side -- that of the potential infringer. Over the years, I've played in, and recorded several original bands. Most of the songs were written by bandmates. I have the recordings. They are usually the first recordings. I'm not trying to make money from releasing these songs, but I would like to make it possible for people to hear them, mainly friends and family. I know that I own the rights to the recordings and production. Most of these songs were written in the 90s and are unpublished and unregistered works. Most have been performed live. I've lost touch with most of the songwriters. Spotify makes it easy for songwriters and publishers to collect their royalties for streams. I'd love to do that. Searches for copyrights on Google, easysong, and with the Harry Fox Agency turn up nothing for my recording. I have several questions. (1) What risk am I taking if I publish these works on SoundCloud and post links on facebook? (2) Should I copyright these recordings? (3) Any other related issues I should think about? So all songwriters here who recorded their unpublished works with bands, please copyright your works so it's easier for us amatuer producers to get our recordings out there without infringing.

I'm sure the program is incredible, but I tried it and never could figure out how to integrate it into my workflow. I've worked with all kind of software my entire life, and I'm a fast learner, but this must be one of the most confusing and counterintuitive programs I've ever found. The GUI is, to me, a perfect example of good looks, but very poor usability, and unfortunately the documentation and official "tutorial" videos don't help at all. Just my two cents.

I agree that it's far less than ideal to have two different methods in the one dialog to achieve the same thing. Definitely not equal at this stage, and more work required to deliver this.

Thunderthud, Good catch! Since we are on the topic of F5, would you agree that a better way (for user) would be to have a single list of all tracks in F5 menu instead of some showing in the list and the others have to be hunted for in the dropdown menu? I am VERY curious on honest user opinion(s) on this. P.S. I believe it would be more convenient to have same workflow for all tracks. AKA "All tracks are equal".

"easy way to change the order of the tracks in the mixer" That would be a nice feature. Not only for a mixer, but naturally for new Track View as well.

"What will get more users back ?" Here is my recipe: 1) Known bugs fixed 2) VST3 with full mixer channel routing before the end of the year. 3) Workflow enhancements / fix broken workflow items - the core of these issues was presented in great detail in several videos by Jeff P. 4) Throw out redundant features and menus /Clean up UI., not giving in to a vocal "few"... only few (!) that are stalling the progress for most users because they are too comfy using certain menus. 5) Graphical enhancements. More vector, more modular, modern buttons. No eyesore "Radio Bar" by default. Less of 90's vibe in design. 6) Plugin stability + same regeneration multicore speed as BIAB. No render to disc.

Hi All, Here's something I wrote many years ago, but have now finally recorded. This short & folky tune is called BLACK HORSE. He was running the horizon A blur against the sky Midnight black in the daylight In the corner of my eye I was barely 21 He was somewhere in his prime Had more heart than sense But I guess that comes with time Thunder on the hillside The sound comes across Warm breath in the cold mist In the shadow of the horse When I was 38 He lost part of his soul She was a mare without compare I couldn’t help or console Some days are short and narrow As I look back on our time He still wanders the fields He’s a ghost of his prime But, thunder on the hillside Freedom at all cost Springtime in the valley Another year of the horse Yeah, thunder on the hillside Sadness like a force Goodbyes and farewells The last season of the horse BIAB Tracks: 1418: Bass, Electric, Ev16 085 4200: Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm Songwriter Ev 120 1533: Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Ev 120 RealDrums: NashvilleBrushesBalladPushEv16 Vocal recorded with a Copperphone Mic As always - thanks for listening! Bob

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" Thanx so much Brian.

Using the 2020 version, I created a song, picked a real track style, rendered individual tracks and when I dragged them into my sequence, they were blank until the last chord. Tried again. Same thing. I saved the file in the BIB file menu, selected "new song" and imported the saved file. This time, it rendered the full tracks. Decided to try a different style (which I've done before on other songs) but it's still playing the instruments from the previous style, even though the new instrument names are showing. I saved the song again, with the new style, (even though it's playing the old style) deleted the plugin, created a new plugin, imported the saved song and got the same result - wrong instruments even though I selected the new style. My only recourse now is to delete the plugin, create a new one, and then re-enter the chords, which is a real time waster. If anyone has noticed stability improvements in newer versions of this plugin, let me know. I'd hate to spend more money upgrading, only to encounter the same issues. Seriously, I've wasted so much time on this app, I'm making less than minimum wage every time I use it to build tracks for clients.

This includes a fix to Studio One 6.6 GUI and authorization problems with Scaler2. I've had problems in the past installing the latest update on Windows, unless you temporarily turn off Windows defender.

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

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
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."
