Very cool tune!! Really like the use of that solo instrument-not sure where that's from. The track has a great vibe generally. You are a very creative guy! Take care. Greg

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hey Bob. Really liked this one. I agree with Greg on the solo instrument. Would love to know what RT it is. I also really enjoyed the intro.

Greg,

Thanks - much appreciated.

The electric solo is: Guitar, Electric, Soloist SmoothJazzCool #1229. I then ran that RT through a 60s amp simulator in GarageBand to give it a bit more color.

Cool stuff.... my only nit with this is that it sounds really "loud" in the speakers...and no, it's not because I have it turned up. I simply compare it to the other song's levels here.

I'd suggest backing off a bit on the levels. If you are pushing it in the mixing stages using compression and limiters to milk every last db out of the song.... there's no need to do that. Set up a reference of a commercial song.... pick one...any one.... they are all basically the same level, and try to NOT exceed that as your max level in the finished song.

Good work on this .... both musically as well as in the song writing...

Innovative idea to reamp the guitar in that manner.

Thumbs up.

Bob,

Very nicely done. The opening is cool (love the count off).
Nice build up, too. Interesting lyrics, as always... does your mind go like that all the time?

Very good mix.

Enjoyed!

I hear a well sung poetic lyric with
a great arrangement. I like the
add on guitar processing. Were
you able to render it "direct input" or
did you add the amp sim on top of
what the RT musician had put on it?
Either way it sounds cool!

Nice one!!

Joanne,

Thanks so much. The electric guitar is Guitar, Electric, Soloist SmoothJazzCool #1229. I put it through an amp simulator in GarageBand to get that particular texture.

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."
