It's almost that time of year again ...isn't it?

I do try to wait until Dec before I start posting Christmas music, but hey.... I guess anything after labor day is fair game now.

Silent night is one of my favorite christmas songs..... I have a version of it as well that I'll likely post in a few more weeks.

Very nice. I'm sure it will make the Christmas playlist for many here on the forum.

I had to switch computers but I finally got this song to play!

Horst, you and your wife make a good team musically.. if I'm not mistaken her beautiful voice appears in many of your songs... correct? I'm so envious of you and the other couples here on the forum who have a musical relationship... I can't imagine a better way to grow close to a partner than through music! Makes me want to go on MATCH.COM and look for somebody my age who sings. ;-)

On a different but related note: Have you ever used the ACW feature in BIAB or Real Band? If you haven't, it lets you load an existing audio file then map the tempo and chords to a timeline so you can add other instruments to the mix. I mention that because, as lovely as this song is, I'd love to hear what you would do if you brought it into BIAB and kept developing new tracks. If you still have the song as separate tracks, you could isolate each of the existing tracks and enhance them using any of the tools BIAB has to offer.

But whether you change anything or not, this is a very enjoyable song exactly as it currently exists. I mentioned ACW because I suspect you are one of those guys who always wants to take a project to the next level.. and that would be one way to do it

I hope to hear more from the combined efforts of you and your wife!

Hi Pat

Thank you for your great review...and yes my wife Sharon are very fortunate to have found each other so long ago...35 yrs now. We are currently working on putting an album together soon.

But for this song we wanted to keep it very simple and pure..we feel it's that kind of a song...we didn't want to clutter it up with a multitude of tracks that would take away the essence.

Sometimes less is better...

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."
