Rob,
Smooth sounding production with some really nice vocals and backing. Really well done R&B single, with a jazz element to it—cool and soulful. Like that trumpet solo closing things out. Great job on this.
Best regards,
Deej

Thanks Charlie, Henry, Floyd, and Deej for giving of your time to listen and respond.... and i appreciate those as well who listen but do not have time to respond in the forum. This song is still a work in progress and I just wanted to share how BIAB is helping me with the production. Peace and Love to all! -rob

Really smooth stuff. in some spots too smooth - the vocal vibrato verges on cabaret where as the held notes sound intimate and real. There are some sibilant spots but they're brief and not accentuated by the reverb/delay. I'm not sure the trumpet tone matches the song - it's a little strident in spots. There's click or something at 2.57 that may not belong. Very smooth and pleasant.

Hello Rob,
I think this is my first time I hear your music on BiaB. Probably I must have missed a lot, because this songs sounds so smooth and professional. Also your recording of the band and the vocals is very good (what's yourt secret?).
So it must be you had a lot of other songs before this one.
I enjoyed it, Hans

Lush and plush production. Sounds good. I dig the electric piano. Vocals are well done.

Hello Rob,
Nice vocals and harmonies! The Rhodes sound is really great. The urban scent and the essence of black music are subtly mixed to create a unique atmosphere. It sounds different from Motown or Philadelphia. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

It's very nice to hear some R&B on the forum!
It all sounds good to us on the monitors.
Your vocals and all the backing tracks (yours and BiaB) all well supported the lyric -- which you nailed with the sexy theme.
Well done!
J&B

Classic sound. Great production and arrangement. Your voice has such a nice feel and range. The lyric is really well written with that two-syllable intro to each section setting up what follows, both intimate and celebratory. Much enjoyed. Nice to meet you.

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."
