My friends will know that I am currently mute and paralyzed and they will forgive me if I've posted this before.

I certainly don't mind if I've heard it before (I haven't), but it sure is enjoyable to hear it any number of times. Sensational!

Don, this is GREAT! You really captured the sound and spirit of that song really well.

Was this for anything specific? Also, when about, would this have been?

If you have any more, please share them. I have never heard this before.

HTL,

My stroke was May 4th, 2001 so I recorded this and a scant few others probably just before the stroke. I think that I received my first BIAB about the same time although I didn't use it on these songs. I used MIDI tracks that I asked the sequencer's permission to use. I recently learned that the sequencer, Dick Anderson, has exited the stage.

After nearly 60 years entertaining, I have fewer than a dozen songs to share. I have hundreds of hours of me (including a jam session with Bob Zimmerman as teens) recorded on cassette and reel-to-reel but nothing to play them on anymore. Last time I checked the reel-to-reels were turning to dust and I'm not far behind.

Moral: Record anything and everything so as to share later with those you love.

I haven't posted my singing before because I didn't use BIAB and felt it inappropriate.

I have a few more Lightfoot covers and some Hank Senior that I collaborated with forumites that I might post sometime, not comfortable with that.

Bob,

Your encouragement is especially appreciated.

Been trying to find some public domain steam locomotive video clips to add for a music video. Can you point me in the right direction?

Thank you and all who listened and especially to those who took the time to comment. It is much appreciated.

I apologize for the vocal reflections. It was recorded in a spare, untreated bedroom with a $2 stick mic.

I really enjoyed that, well done I have the package below biab audiophile on I think its ultra , so loads of real tracks that are brilliant. But I love and prefer midi most of the time , not getting at biab in anyway. but I like the sound and the editing side of the midis a good sound module and your set.

This also blows away a lot of advise I see forever more on recording vocals , cupboards, duvet covers and quilts, curtains etc, a song should have noise and the only difference is what noise you want in it.

A good expensive pair of headphones, and I hear a lot of noise in a lot of songs to people talking crisp bags rustling, But that's another topic.


You just proved to us all that Anything goes.

Thanks

I harken back to a quote by a BIAB guru and audio engineer, Mac, who liked to remind us: "If you can't make a decent recording with a computer stick mic, you probably can't do it at all!" [sic]

I sure miss ole Mac!

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."
