Used 65 PopPiano 12-8 Ballad (65RS) which was individually transferred, track by track into Pro Tools 9. Song or whatever you´ld like to call it has just added some EZmix plugging and choir is done with TC VoiceLive2. Took less than two hours to make this demo.

Hi Carl,

Congratulations on getting your first post up. I enjoyed the listen. I've never used this Realtrack. I've got to say that I'm impressed.

I'm looking forward to hearing what you next do!

Regards,
Noel

Hi Carl,

I also congratulate you for your first song post here! I enjoyed listening. A very engaging tune. I couldn't quite make out the words in many places, but that's probably just my "(not too) old" ears!

Keep up the good work!

Steve

What an outstanding first post!

Nice backing track and a super choir effect! I really liked the vocal however to nit-pick I thought at times it needed to be a little more out front. Not much just a tad, maybe with some light compression.

Even if you don’t change a thing it is still a winner.

Hi Carl,
Really nice first post. I have to admit when I saw the title I was expecting hiphop. I had a little trouble making out some words but overall I thought it was engaging. Very lush sound with the choir. Looking forward to more.

Hi Carl,

Very well done. I like the melody and the laid back feel of this song.

Well you've done it now... you'll have to keep up the quality for your next songs

Keep em coming.

Best regards
George

Thanks all. I think I should stick to Swedish, maybe you understand the lyrics better then.

Despite any shortcomings, very enjoyable. Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to future songs from you.

And there's no reason to stick with Swedish - your English is excellent! The mix (large reverb, vocals in the back, an occasional bit of too much bass from mike proximity) is where the problem of understanding the words came from. Some small tweaks would take care of that.

Good work Frans, (why is everyone calling you Carl? Did I miss something?)
It reminded me of Herb Alpert's 'This Guy's In Love With You' in terms of the song's feel and changes. Your lyrics have some good images, and that's with English not being your first language! Forgive me, but the rhyming of 'fool' and 'toll' didn't work for me, especially as it's a chorus end line. But all in all this is a good effort and you've got some good recording skills going on there.

John

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

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.

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."
