Hi All,

I have a lot of catching up to do... smile

Anyway, here's something new - this is a simple little folk-rock song called Satellites.

All BIAB/RTs. Thanks for listening!

Nicely done and I thought your vocals were good. Very clear to me.

Would like to know what the strumming acoustic real track you used. It was a nice strumming pattern.

Bob,
Great idea. Excellent mix and vocal performance.
The title fits my moniker. I couldn't help but listen.

Really cool stuff Bob!! You have such a way with clever, abstract lyrics. It is an interesting lyrical and conceptional collage. Mix and production fit the song well. Harmonica is sweet. Great job! Take care. Greg

Bob, Glad to see you back. First I was struck with the clarity of the mix. This is your best ever. The harmonica sounds like it's in the room with me. Nicely produced. Your harmonies sound really good the way you made them just peek out. Definitely your best mix and overall near the top of everything you've ever posted here. Way to up your game! Tom

Good job using all RT's and making it seem "real" (ha, ha). OK what bass is that? Great harp part. OK, list all the RT's please!

Good vocals and the lyrics are well put together also. Mighty fine overall mix and sound.

Bob,

Wow. The first thing that struck me was the exceptional clarity of the mix and then, as the song progressed, I was equally impressed with the strength of the arrangement. Awesome!

As always, imagery swirls throughout these lyrics. You're a master at using a phrase to create a picture and enhance an emotion.

Regards,
Noel

SO good to hear you back and as others have said that was a really clear mix.

Bob - Tom said all the things I thought and had intended to say... but I'll say them again...

This is your best mix ever. Perfect for your writing. The band you were meant to record with! Perfect presentation.

Cool write, too.

Excellent vocal. Confident.

I like it all.

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!

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."
