My first live sound regular gig we had all SM57 mics and for the vocalists we would put a foam pop/spit screen on it. We got fancy when we added 58s to our mic bucket.

I drew the design for this t shirt for the nostalgia and irony.

I’m wearing mine today!

Those are practically indestructible. I still have my 58 from way back... it's easily 45+ years old. It doesn't get much use in the studio but it still works.

I have an old Shure Unidyne III SM57 mic that I bought way back in the 1970s. It is built like a tank and still works. Here is an excerpt from an article I found:


"The Unidynes are great mics in their own right. According to an old friend of mine who visited the Shure factory back in the 70's, he was told this:
That the SM57 and the Unidyne III used the same cartridge, but that the 57 got the ones that passed all of the top QC tests. The Unidynes got the "2nd tier" QC cartridges. This, along with slight design differences in the "port" area of the mic's body, rendered a slightly different voicing to the Unidynes. I , along with many others, have a fondness for this slight variation. Good Unidynes (they tended to be a bit less consistent) are coveted for guitar ams, snare, and some vocals. If you find a good one, hang onto it!"


I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

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."
