Here is a song i posted as a scratch version over a year ago. I finally got around to re-recording the vocal track, and giving it a good mix down. https://soundcloud.com/robhelms57/coming-home-updated-mix Give 'er a good old fashioned listen if you have the time, and all comments are welcome.

Hi Rob,

I can't remember having heard this before. I must've missed the scratch track you originally posted. This is excellent. What a great melody to support brilliant lyrics. Add to this, your singing sounds great!

Kudos to you all round!

All the best,
Noel

Yeah, I liked it too. But there is room for improvement, like an acoustic guitar track or electric acoustic rhythm guitar track, of some sort, or both. A soft acoustic track would almost seem essential to this song. Good song, great vocals.

Thanks Noel, nice words

PD you might have nailed, a nice soft acoustics maybe 12string. I'll do some experimenting.

Rob,

Nice. I think PD is right... add an acoustic strum to this.. and you'd be done.. the vocals are really well recorded.

Hi Rob,

Very, very nice. That was a great suggestion of Pariahdise's! I thoroughly enjoyed the second version.

Can I suggest you change the link in the original post as it no longer works. I had to go to your site and then find the song (not that it was hard but it might add a layer of difficulty for some people who are not overly familiar with Soundcloud).

All the best,
Noel

Very pretty song Rob. For your daughter? She's lucky to have a father who immortalizes her in song.

The prodigal daughter, eh!
I think we've all had one of those!
A really lovely song and I hope that she has heard it and knows how you feel.
Didnt hear "Mark One" version but there is a balance to this one that is excellent.
cheers

+1 I am thinking maybe the new realtrack (I am away from my BIAB computer now) I think it is called "easy listening acoustic. It should mold this already good track into a more solid backing.

I love the reprise, as this is what I was thinking throughout the song that this would be a great welcome home for any soldier who had been to war . . . and viola! That's what it was. This means your intent had me from the git go.

Later,

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."
