Band-in-a-Box for Windows

I have been following this tread closely. In fact, I tried to make my own "Style" for EA. Started with a good midi version and then used the "Style Maker from Midi" feature. This automatically created all the chords for A Section and B section. I then moved and separated the individual midi tracks into the new Utility tracks. I especially wanted to be able to reuse the melody from the midi. I made a EAngel1.sty. And then EAngel2.sty. And finally EAngel3.sty. Now I had

When I wrote my first style disk, back when BiaB was "version 4", still on floppy disks, and only 3 instruments, I figured I'd run out of styles to write pretty soon. However, the more I write styles, the more I realize that there are never too many. Different songs even in the same genre and style require different styles, even if they are similar. Of course, the huge library of styles creates another problem; How to find the one you need in the proverbial 'haystack'. But then that'

I grew up calling it either Elevator Music or Muzak, so it might be a regional thing. It used to be always 'easy listening' instrumental versions of the popular songs of my parents' generation. I think a group called "101 Strings" were typical of that. Now I hear a lot of vocal music, pop cuts from the artists in the Baby Boomer generation and beyond played as 'overhead' music. Times change. I'd love to hear my music in an elevator, as long as I was getting royalties. Ka-Ching Not

I'm a sax player. No sax is in tune with itself. When I bought my Selmer Mark VI there were 3 in the store. I went in with a strobe tuner (they were state-of-the-art back then) and picked the one with the best intonation. Even though the serial numbers were close, they had different degrees of intonation problems. I no longer have the luxury of doing that when I buy a new sax because local music stores usually don't even carry one pro level horn anymore. If they do, it's only one. My last 3 sa

Quote:I have switched the driver to MME but in this mode the audio momentarily stops, for only a few milliseconds, whenever I click on many sections of BIAB. If I try to adjust the volume on instruments in the mixer, the sound gets interrupted, the same if I click the notation button or click on the chord charts I can confirm that. A short blink of the audio. But that is only while auditioning the song and making adjustments on the fly. Those audio hesitations should not get recorded to the

What are you using for recording input? The computer microphone?? What recording driver are you using? You will be needing a Audio Device (generally an external USB module with ASIO drivers) along with a proper microphone to record your re.corder. Anything other than that will be less than satisfactory due to latency.

Check if there are volume settings on the device itself, and also check that the volume faders are not turned down in your Band-in-a-Box mixer.

Hi Billy, I've been repairing vintage Fenders for about fifty years now, so let me see if there's anything I can help you with, regarding your problems with intonation. Firstly, lets assume that the fret spacings are accurate, because there's nothing you can do if they're not. Secondly, let's also assume that you know about the best way to adjust the string length at the saddle - ask me if you're not sure. Now for the things which are often missed - fret type, string gauge and string height.

What happens when you press the Kontakt MIDI Panic button. The “!” Symbol on the top right hand side of Kontakt. Does this stop the “feedback”. What channel are you using. It is very possible to confuse Kontakt by having a patch that allows multiple channels open with a mysterious note set on a channel not actually used. This signal may not be receiving a note off. Pushing the panic button will turn the note off, however, it will recur. Use Kontakt to determine what channels are c

Thanks for the constructive criticism rayc! I definitely hear what you're hearing with the weak notes in the first verse. I have trouble with putting strength on the lower end of my vocal scale but I agree, I could do better here. Also, I like your idea with mixing in a slide guitar or similar in place of the sax. Will experiment with different options. Na zdrowie! Dewey

wow, thank you so much to everyone who gave an answer this is a fascinating subject I did not learn a lot of conventional harmony So I tend to think of chords as colors, flavors or feelings and in any case, as the basic building blocks of any piece of music but this is only my "gut feeling"

RealBand repeats your incoming audio and mixes the incoming audio with the computer generated audio. Band-in-a-Box does

Band-in-a-Box® 2021 for Mac Review – Users' Dreams Come True
Read all about what "Dr. Dave" Walker thinks of his latest copy of Band-in-a-Box® 2021 for Mac with his review, Band-in-a-Box for Mac 2021 – Users' Dreams Come True.
"2021 is a big leap forward to the best Band-in-a-Box for Mac yet! If you have been putting off upgrading, or even if not, NOW is the time to upgrade! And if you haven't got it yet, you owe it to yourself to get Band-in-a-Box 2021.
Maybe the most important point from all the talk about this version is that PG Music is listening to you, their customers. So if you have a feature that you really want in the program, write to them or chat from their web site. Let them know and yours just might be the next feature added."
-"Dr. Dave" Walker
