First Post - Been using BINB for a long time, at least 15 years.
Sorry,can't list style, I combine tracks using Hybrid style maker, did not put style choices in memo (will in future). for example, last style generated, though not for this song is called 20JonAnd Drums C_soft, Bass C_sweet, piano CR_jones, Guitar C2_andy, Strings CR_jones


After I generate BINB song, I edit some in Powertracks, then open in Mackie Traction 3. I Mostly use Sample Tank instruments. Do more midi editing, especially bass drums and piano, then add vocals and my own guitar. Final mix is done in Mackie Traction 3.

On new CD "Seasons of Life"

Malcolm,

You, Sir, have just defined my taste in the Americana genre. Simply fabulous, my amigo. Reminiscent of the old Carter Family songs when I was but a wee bit'o a laddie.

The only thing I missed would have been a nice acoustic guitar break just before the bridge but that is very subjective. You've got a beautiful keeper there. Thank you so much for sharing that and recalling wonderful memories of my youth to this tired old Irishman. Heading back now to hear your others.

You have a wonderful voice, by the way. I'm anxious to hear much more of your songs. very refreshing.

Thanks for the comments. I do a solo act with guitar and I am not a fluent lead player, so I don't put many instrument solos in my recordings.

Malcolm, you do such a wonderful job on this that a guitar break is not really necessary.

Thanks again.

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."
