A song in memory of my great uncle from Sweden, that showed me the fantastic world of music. He had an original 1973 Fender Stratocaster, that he handed over to me while I was a kid. I was lost! He taught me some great tricks that still works :-)

The song was made for his funeral last october – and today I finally was able to finish the video:

Tonen från hans Fender

…of course, in swedish…

Style is _ACPOP16.STY

If that was the strat....WHAT a beautiful looking guitar!!
I like the way you play the solo...1st strat, then acoustic then air guitar....that made the video good to watch.

Your great uncle would have been proud of you if he had seen that video and heard that song. The words don't need translation.

I enjoyed that

A beautiful track which, like Alyn said, doesn't seem to need a translation to still work well.

Good video too.

A fitting tribute to your great uncle.

Really enjoyed the song. The video was great with the 'Old to New' and back again style.
A good clean mix in my view. Congratulations.

Great concept... and a perfect tribute to your uncle! Wonderful stuff indeed. Loved that descending bass line from 1:23. Thanks for sharing this.

Great song and video. Love the glassy sound of the strat. I liked the harmonized lead at the end. Nicely done . Thanks for posting, Tom

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."
