Here's a song I've been meaning to write for about 30 years using some of my favorite Chapin song titles - I finally finished and recorded it today. This was done with the MAC version of BIAB/RT - hope you enjoy and thanks for listening... Bob http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=10066096 "Where In The World Is Harry Chapin Tonight" On the road to kingdom come Could you put the light on please Someone keeps calling my name And why should people stay the same Do you remember when the music Is what made America famous The day they closed the factory down Made them legends of the lost and found Chorus: Dancin' boy Love is just another word So I keep it up on the shelf Paint a picture of yourself Just another story of a life Where in the world is Harry Chapin tonight She sings songs without words She is always seventeen Dreams go by, everybody's lonely God babe you've been good to me I wanna learn a love song I don't want to be president Cat's in the cradle, flowers are red You can't come in from the rain somebody said Chorus: repeat Sunday morning sunshine Short stories and a shooting star Stranger with the melodies I finally found it, Sandy Danceband on the Titanic Gotta stop singing these sad songs Mail order Annie catching a taxi One light in a dark valley Chorus: end

I don't know enough of Chapin's music to appreciate the lyrics on that level. What I can say, though, is that I like the imagery and the journey that you've created with your words. Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

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."
