One by my favourite composer J.S. Bach: Cantata "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" BWV 147 (matching the Easter season). As a base I used Clasfake\Bach01 in BiaB. The voices are Vocaloid Avanna and samples of my own voice. The 3/4 measure and the many, many chord changes make it difficult for the RT artists. So at times I used up to 40 tracks, moving snippets around. I ended up with 22 tracks in the final mix.

Guenter,
Cool. As always. I think Johann would have loved the screamin' sax. And would have loved having Brent around to "let it rip" now and again....
Great mix of "old and new".... always look forward to what you might do next...
But, hey... stay away from the Country stuff... there's enough competition there as it is.....

Hi Guenter,
For the first couple of minutes, to my ears, this was very "Swingle Singers" sounding (one of my all-time favourite groups). Then the sax came in. What a great segue! You've put this arrangement together with outstanding attention to detail. The whole presentation was excellent to listen to. It must have taken ages to assemble!
Regards, Noel

Thanks Charlie, Floyd, Noel and MountainSide for your nice comments.
@Floyd: Yes, he would have written a well tempered Brent, I'm sure. You can calm down: I won't do Country.
@Noel: I'm glad you are back to my "channel". Missed you on my last post. That Swingle Singers tribute was deliberate. I used to listen to them a lot. You are right: it took quite some time.

Hi Guenter,
This is of the largest-scale and most complex uses of RealTracks that I've ever seen. I take it that you used only your voice with the Vocaloid software. And out come those beautiful female voices in perfect tune? Mind blowing!

Hi Bob and Aleck,
thanks for your nice words.
@Aleck: The female voices are Avanna, mine are the male ones. Avanna is Vocaloid, mine is DirctWave Sammpler.

Aleck
Just got to this and man glad I did. I too would like to know where the female fills came from? Edited portion: Sorry I just read your original post after I listened to the production and you already answered.
Very enjoyable listen!
Later,

Me thinks you've mastered using vocaloid w/ BIAB... maybe we can convince Peter to consider including it and some vocal stubs in future releases of BIAB. Well done Guenter!@

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."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
