This song uses Toby E Sty BIAB. It is then transferred to GarageBand where it is also mastered. Any feedback appreciated. Thanks, Tom http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1127534&content=music

Make it easy on the listeners, here is a direct link: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=1127534&songID=10616807 . Sounds good, I like how it cranks up the intensity as it goes along. I wonder if some key changes would make it even more energetic.

Kevin and Steve, Thanks for giving a listen and for the comments. Kevin, I will definitely use some modulations in the future. It's something that I've used in the past but just kind of slipped my mind. Good point. That is the kind of suggestion that makes this forum useful to us all. I will be checking out the songs from both of you. Thanks again. Tom

Tom, I really enjoyed that! I like the melodies/chords matches, and you have a very expressive voice. I'd have liked that last chord to have lingered .... long... to point up the pensive nature of the song. Thanks for posting this one!

Thom, this is a great song, super lyrics and vocals combined with a fantastic voice with all masterfully mixed.

GREAT JOB – two thumbs up.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Sky and Mario, Thanks for the comments. Sky you are so right. I always have trouble with endings. I played in a band with a guy who said don't worry about the rest of the song as long as you end it good,that's what people listen to. I will pay more attention to that part in future songs. Thanks again, Tom

Nice song Tommy!

For benefit of others, if possible, please add a list of what RealTracks are used. You can copy/paste that list from the Song Memo in BB (it gets generated).


Have Fun!

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."
