This is a song about overcoming "bullying" or belittling or just looking to God to help me make it thought another day. Again it is Contemporary Christian. Thank you for the feedback on my last song.

Words and Music Ken Mattox
Seventy Times Seven
Ken Mattox

How many times do I sit down and cry when they’re throwing stones
How many lies should I alibi when I’m all alone
How many eyes look beyond my life never weigh the toll
You keep saying seventy times seven

Make me a fortress, never give concession
Help me forgive seventy times seven
Open my heart and make it wide as heaven
You keep saying seventy times seven

How many days, when the skies are grey, do I turn the page
How many ways do I need to pray until they go away
How can I stay and keep the wolves at bay before my heart will break
You keep saying seventy times seven

Make me a fortress, never give concession
Help me forgive seventy times seven
Open my heart and make it wide as heaven
You keep saying seventy times seven

Hi Mattox!

Glad to see the lyrics this time! In addition to making your production more understandable to those who view it, it also helps us to offer our thoughts.

I liked the chord pattern and the way the lead parts worked with it.
I also liked the way the verses kept leading back to your title... very cool!
The ending sounded like it got clipped at some point in the production, but apart from that it was quite enjoyable!

Are you having fun with BIAB so far? Sounds like you are!

Thank you all for you feedback, and taking the time to listen to my songs. It is greatly appreciated.

I have to say, band in a box may be the most enjoyment I've gotten on a computer. I have been listening to the other music in this forum and the quality is incredible.

I am using band in a box and sonar x3. Trying to learn more about mixing., adding volume and cut down on clipping, so if you have suggestions, I am open to listen.

I will post Moore songs, and I will be listening to the songs you guys post.

Thank you,
Mattox

Ken,

Nice write on this. Well structured, simple, to the point, tight.

Good arrangement, nice mix.

I like your vocal. It has an "honesty" to it. You bring it down (just a hair) so that it sits in the mix a little more, which will bring your tracks more "into play" - they already sound good, but that would, effectively raise their volume a tad. There seems a little breakup of the vocal on a couple of words, so a 1 dB drop might be just the thing...

Good stuff...

floyd

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."
