Hi all, I haven't been around much lately, and haven't had many chances to work my way through the User Showcase. I've been working on a song lately on which I'd like to get some feedback if anyone has a few minutes and would care to comment. It's a bit of a sad song about a depressing relationship that so many people find themselves in it seems. Let me have it good or bad if you will. Thanks in advance. The Morning Paper

Hi toucher,
Very impressive. I liked the melody and the story scene you painted. Great vocal that really captured the emotion.
I would've liked to see the lyrics.
My only nit is that the harmonizer is distracting from her voice in spots because it sounds too robotic - especially for an intimate song like this.

Very nice indeed! I agree with Josie about the harmonizer.

One single harmony might be sweet. Take the vocalizer and cut it down to either a 3rd or a 5th, and see what one lone voice does.

I posted already but it seems to have got lost.
Great singing and a great song! Like it! With my hearing the harmony sounded ok.

Hi Toucher,
Really well written (sad) song! I agree with the comments about the harmonizer. But great job on the song!

Thank you all so much for the input so far, it would appear there is a confirmatin between this and another forum on a couple of changes. I'll work on those when time allows. There are so many knowledgable pros here that a consensus is usually something you have to go with. I'll repost when I've had some time to process what I need to do and then find time to do it Thanks again. Can't wait for the 2012 version............. Rob

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."
