Robert,

Welcome to the Showcase!

I enjoyed all of your songs. Very well written. The productions/arrangements worked well for each. And the mixes were good.

The vocals are nice, the harmonies, too.

You have the lead vocal on "Not Mine To Give" panned right - more so it seems once the harmony starts... I would suggest that that stay more centered...even though it is more of a duet type harmony, if you panned that lead vocal at all it should not be "noticeable" - 10% (if at all).

You would likely get more participation in the thread if you limit it to a single song at a time. And tell us a bit about the song and the RTs that you use - you use them well and are creating a terrific Folk sound... sharing those details could help others to find that sound as well...

Again, welcome... nice job! enjoyed it...

Thanks for your welcome and comments, Floyd.
I guess I`ll need some new speakers as on my current settup I only get a hint of the panning problem with the vocals on Not Mine To Give. I nearly threw in the towel on that song due to all the mistakes made with RealBand, but will revisit and repost a better version.
My future posts will go one number at a time as you suggest... the excitement of finding BIAB and deciding to begin recording songs played mostly to the 4 walls til now has had me on a tear to get something out.
Robert

Thanks Scott C
I will post lyrics - it may take a week or so as I don`t have any on computer yet.

Nice stuff Robert!! Welcome to the forum! You obviously have been doing this a while. You have a really great folk voice and a nice style. You have done a great job of using the RTs effectively to create your sound. I would love to see lyrics, as well as RTs used. Glad to have you aboard! Take care. Greg

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."
