Don't give up. The link to your song is a good link and opens the correct soundcloud page...

You have correctly placed the link in your post here but the song can't be found at the Soundcloud site. So...

All you need to do is repost your song on Soundcloud so the link correctly goes to a live song.

Here on PGMusic Forum in the User Showcase select New Post and when on the New Post screen, select the Full Supply Screen. In the toolbar, the second icon from the left, beside the smiley face, is where you will drop the url to your Soundcloud song for your User Showcase post.

Looking forward to hearing your first song post..

Charlie

Hi Dave,

Welcome to the Showcase!

Enjoyed listening. There is a lot of feeling in your singing.

The mix has a nice clarity to it. The acoustic guitar, piano, strings and cello (I think) all sit nicely. The shaker that comes in at 1:02 is a little loud (and distracts a bit) - you might consider pulling that down a little...you want it to be "there, but not 'noticeable'".

Dave,
Welcome to the forum.
I enjoyed this sincere song and especially your vocal and harmonies.
The production sounds clear.
Your struggles with the logistics of posting were worth it!

Pretty song and vocal Dave. You really have a nice voice that sounds even stronger in the harmonies. Welcome to the forum (I am only on my 2nd song posting myself, so we are both you)

The song sounds like a classic from yesteryear

My only comment mixwise would be to do away with that hi-hat sound. It sounds a bit like someone pumping up a bicycle tyre

Geez, I like that song.

What determination on the parts of the members to track that link down!
Worth the effort, though. the song is very nicely done.

DJJP this works for me. This is a very good song for a first post. I agree that the shaker is a tad to loud but other than that this is super. Nice arrangement and good strong vocal.

Hey Dave,

I thought this was a really fine first post. I agree with the comments on the shaker (It's tooo loud) and I would prefer it on just 2 & 4, but that's just me wanting it to play more of a snare part.

Good Job!

Thanks Greg...I have always hated that THUMP...THUMP...THUMP of a snare drum..most times its as loud as the lead vocal..so...you probably wont hear much of drums in my songs ...but ...to each to their own tastes.

A very beautiful song. Well put together, and you've done a great job with the harmonies.

Well done, and welcome to the neighborhood.

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."
