Other RT's used were:

Deep Inside

You headed out west lookin’ for a way to find yourself again
For so damn long it’s all gone wrong it’s time to let this ole heart mend
Maybe a change of scenery will be just what you need
And maybe you’ll find a way to erase the heartache that you feel
Deep Inside

Now don’t look back you left it behind it’s all in your rearview mirror
The road up ahead it’s not the one that you led there’s no reason to shed a tear
This time you won’t give in and let it pull you down
Yea this time will be different with the courage that you’ve found
Deep Inside / Deep Inside

Sometimes your heart has to break for you to be set free
But don’t let it consume your life just leave it as a memory
Deep Inside / Deep Inside

You made it out west it’s gonna be ok your finding yourself again
It’s a new day’s dawn let the heartache be gone you’ve finally begun to mend
Yea maybe the change of scenery helped more than you know
And maybe your heart won’t be afraid to let your feelings grow
Deep Inside / Deep Inside

(Chorus)

Deep Inside (X4)

Greg,

Nicely put together. Good mix - very "even" throughout the entire song.
Really cool sounding vocal on this.

I enjoyed it.

Nice job on this. Well done on the recording.

The mix sounds good to me.

Hi Greg,

"Excellent sound" and "great vocals" were the two thoughts that popped into my mind. It's all thumbs up from me. You should feel well satisfied with what you've done here.

Nice arrangement of your picking and RTs. It all works very well to support a fine vocal and lyrics. And out west is a great place to start anew!

Country is not a genre that I generally listen to, but I have to give you credit for a good melody and good vocals.

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."
