#366317 - 09/20/16 09:31 AM [2016 & 2017 Xtra Styles Contests - Closed] Entry for Singer songwriter and Rock categories in one song called Echo round your mind.
Registered: 08/25/03 Posts: 3073 Loc: wales gibson Veteran Registered: 08/25/03 Posts: 3073 Loc: wales	XTRA XTRA read all about it! An entry for the Rock AND the singer songwriter xtra style competition .... together .... in one song, a gibsonisation+. The original song is from a few years ago so I put the vocals and solo wavs into BIAB and experimented. There are 3 styles although the RTs overlap. At one stage everything is playing, which was a nightmare to mix! Solo is me on Les Paul through line 6 UX2 Toneport I also feel a little relevant to the posts Phil Spector/Wall of sound and Multi-Style suggestions This song started me off on a mix and match marathon and I now have 3 others, less loud, which made the choice of which to post very hard. It started life being called "Her Mum" for some reason but is now: Echo round your mind **** Song Summary ********* Title: her mum File:echo EQUINOX.SGU Key=Am , Tempo 95, Length (m:s)=2:56 No intro. 66 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 66.

A haunting chord progression also held my interest. It sounded kind of Beatlesque in places. That Wah wah guitar was also very enjoyable and fitted the song perfectly. Good job indeed!

The three styles work really well together and showcase your lyrics and performance excellently. Brilliant choice! I have to say that...

Rec Thanks Rec, glad you enjoyed. One heavily compressed solo with hammer-ons and slides, no pick as I played with my index finger, Wah used as a tone control more than an effect!

Band-in-a-Box® Tip of the Day!

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® will show you some helpful "Tips" when you start the program? What a great way for new program users to learn all the features of the program! Want to know Tips on just the latest version? This feature can be adjusted to just show the Tips for that too.

Maybe you're a long-time user of the program, and have this feature turned off? To access Tip of the Day (450+ available!), head to Help | Tip of the Day. Your Tip will appear right away - and you'll have the option of reading the Next Tip if you wanted too! Within this window is where you would also choose to "Show Tips at Startup" (if this is unchecked, you won't see them), or "Only Show Tips for Version 2019".

Here's a few Tips the program informed me of the last time I opened Band-in-a-Box®:

In the Piano Roll window, the 'Ghost Note' function allows you to view a single-channel, and see notes on all other channels display in light grey. This is useful when working with multi-channel tracks.

Want a bigger guitar display? Drag the bottom end of the Guitar Window to change its size, or press the SETTINGS button to set a custom size.

The Printout can use left and right MARGINS. This is useful to make printouts for small paper size or 3 hole paper that requires margins.

Edit | Nudge Chords/Melody. Let's say that you have entered a complete song chord progression, and you then realize that all of the chords starting at bar 23 are 1 beat to late. You can use this feature to slide your chords over by 1 beat.
