Wow - this song is a trip! This might win the award for most unique thing I have ever heard on the showcase. There is so much going on, but somehow it doesn't come across as sounding crowded. This is truly a great display of how versatile Band-in-a-Box can be. Thank you for sharing

Very interesting song! Love the synth shots and the robot voices! The guitar is a good introduction to the elements too. Way to go!

Very unusual song on this forum, but that's a good thing. Good combination of loops, Vocaloid and the guitar. Nice cryptic lyrics, as a Java programmer myself, I like "Java, the only coffee to drink" Janne

Not in a million years could anyone have guessed BBox was involved, this is that far beyond left field! As for the song itself, takes me back to the golden era of Kraftwerk et al. Not a shabby company to be in either

Definitely Different.
I liked the use of the HP 15C. I use the same exact unit!

Loved this backtrack. What a creative use of BIAB. I agree no one could have guessed this was created using BIAB. Well done

Band-in-a-Box® 2021 - RealCharts for all RealDrums!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2021, we added over 300 additional RealCharts (with accurate Drum Notation and MIDI to trigger drum sounds) for RealDrums.
That's right... this means that now ALL the RealDrums have RealCharts!
With RealCharts, you can use the notation for MIDI drum parts too - great for copying to a Utility Track!
(Watch this video for a full demonstration of Utility Tracks.)
Learn more about RealCharts for RealDrums with drum notation.
Band-in-a-Box® 2021 Feature: Utility Tracks
Have you ever wanted to use more than 5 tracks when creating your Band-in-a-Box® song? Great news.... with the new Utility Tracks added in Band-in-a-Box® 2021, there are 16 more tracks!
These can be used for audio and/or MIDI! Generate RealTracks to the Utility Tracks where you can listen to AND edit them and view the RealCharts as MIDI. You can also record to these tracks (MIDI or audio), and import your audio for further editing or to harmonize it.
We explain all the great ways to use the Utility Tracks in this video.

Band-in-a-Box® 2021 for Mac Review – Users' Dreams Come True
Read all about what "Dr. Dave" Walker thinks of his latest copy of Band-in-a-Box® 2021 for Mac with his review, Band-in-a-Box for Mac 2021 – Users' Dreams Come True.
"2021 is a big leap forward to the best Band-in-a-Box for Mac yet! If you have been putting off upgrading, or even if not, NOW is the time to upgrade! And if you haven't got it yet, you owe it to yourself to get Band-in-a-Box 2021.
Maybe the most important point from all the talk about this version is that PG Music is listening to you, their customers. So if you have a feature that you really want in the program, write to them or chat from their web site. Let them know and yours just might be the next feature added."
-"Dr. Dave" Walker
