Another brilliant song Steve both in content and production.

Your studio technique never ceases to amaze me. I must revisit your post about how you do it in the tips and tricks forum that I have saved on my computer.

The clarity of the whole mix and the nice level is great.

Do you use any loudness maximizer on any of the tracks or the master to bring up the level? What monitors do you use?

I always enjoy and admire your work Steve, always radio ready.

First off, let me apologize for taking so long to respond! The past week and a half have been extremely hectic, but here I am...

Bob (Dean),

Thanks so much for taking the time to listen and post. Glad you like it!

Charlie,

Thanks for the nice comment!

Fred,

Thanks very much! As to what I use, on this song, I used Logic Pro X. I also have Sonar, and like to use it from time to time. I have a pretty inexpensive MXL mic (around $200), that I find seems to fit my sound okay. Other than that, I just spend a fair amount of time listening, and comparing to professional productions to try to match overall sounds the best I can. Thanks again!

Bob (90db),

Thank you very much for commening on this one. So glad you like it!

Floyd,

Always a joy to hear from you! Thanks for taking the time to listen and post such kind words!

Rec,

Thank you for your generous comments! Glad you enjoyed it.

Pat,

I am always very happy to hear from you, my friend! Glad you like this one. As to the strings, this is a mixture of the BB RealTracks strings with the Garrison Orchestra. Glad you like it. You probably know violin was my main instrument in school, and so I have a background in playing and arranging strings. These RealTracks are superb, and work well to mix in with Garrison.

I am not familiar with Fernando Ortega, but I will have to check him out. Thanks again for the kind words!

Guenter,

Thanks so much for your kind words! Good to hear from you.

Greg,

I truly appreciate your time and nice words!

Tom,

Thanks so much! I am a fan of your work, and really appreciate your input!

Gruverider,

Thank you for the good words!

Herb,

Thanks very much! Yes this is a Christian song. It's actually a testimony of what my life has been for the past couple of years. I have been through some physical battles, but God has been very good to me through it all.

Thanks for the input about the bass. I did not have time to listen on all the systems I like to on this one, so I appreciate your input.

Janice and Bud,

Always so good to hear from you! I am a big fan of your work! Glad you like this one!

Rob and Anne Marie,

Thank you so much! So glad you like this!

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."
