Dale I don't do Country normally. This is the first Country song for me. I'm a Rocker from Detroit relocated to NC in 1975. So I just kinda absorbed the sound. Thanks for listening.

Greg this is a rough recording that turned out so good I couldn't throw it away. I didn't even sing it correctly and left out the second verse. I'm working on the next release and will include the correct lyrics in that post.

So...... I go to our Nashville Songwriters Raleigh chapter meeting and we're setting there talking about music and songwriting and of course, Band in The Box. So David is talking about something.... when the "other David" David Snyder, looks at me and points to David, and says.... "That's "Maybelline" ... it tales about 3 seconds to register.... dga David is a local here in Raleigh....

So our NSAI Raleigh chapter has currently 3 BB users who are active here in the forums.

Small world out there.

And you Herb, for better or worse, are totally responsible for any and all mayhem and havoc we may wreak since you are the one got us started.

If we write the world's worst songs and foist them upon the people, may God have mercy on your soul.

BIAB use should pick up in this area. Every time I go out and play I get questions. My live rig is Backing Tracks produced in BIAB/RB Loaded into my TC-Helicon VoiceLive3 Extreme, a nice acoustic and a condenser vocal mic. I have lots of backing tracks so I'm working on laying down Vocal tracks in RB.

New songs soon. I hope.

Thanks, Guenter. And Everybody who has listened to "Maybelline" BIAB is amazing every day I learn more and more about the features. I want to encourage users to post their first songs, I was surprised the reaction. I'm feverishly working on my next release. "Maybelline" will be a hard one to follow.

Dga, this is on great first post. Your mix sounded good but with a touch of reverb would put it over the top IMHO.

You have a very nice voice and your lyrics are great.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hi dga, your song carried me all along as nicely as could be a stroll in the country on your SoundCloud picture page, and as the beauty of Maybelline too!
Cheers

I like to respond to each post, thanks I'm glad you liked it.

I'm a little late because I had to remove malware from my computer today. 4 hours. UGH

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."

Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
