Hi Ernesto,

Wow! This sounds very cool... very classy.... and sits very comfortably on my ears. You've done a great job putting this together. I love your bass line and the overall mix is really good. I compliment you on your use of midi and Realtracks!

All the best,
Noel

Thank you Noel
Im very happy you liked it.
I liked the outcome of my first experiment but his time I did not manage to change the sax notes, I need to familiarize myself with BB before to do more complicated stuff.
BB is crashing a lot in my PC so I had done the best I can in a couple of days keeping things easy...
Still with the crashes, I love BB
Thanks you again!

Hello!

I really enjoyed this. I'm a big fan of smooth jazz and smooth r&b. This has elements of both. Great guitar work - love the tone and the fx! And that bass line is simply killer!!!

Pretty cool sax, too. Totally enjoyed it. Sweet!

Hey EMG

Great Song, great display of tracks and seamless guitar transitions.

This is why I have always loved/ wanted a PRS, such a beautiful tone!

Great Work all around!

Hi again, Ernesto.

I hope you don't mind but I thought it was probably a good idea for me to mention a couple of things regarding the below comments you made in your reply to me.

ONE

You won't be able to change the notes that the sax plays. Because it is a Realtrack, it is an audio recording and what you are hearing are the phrases that the studio musician played when putting the Realtrack together. The individual notes played by the sax are not available as audio.

The notation that accompanies many Realtracks is there to give users an indication of what was played. It doesn't control the performance.

TWO

The program should not be crashing. If you have the Windows version of the software, it sounds like you need to activate "Run as administrator". To do this...

1. close BIAB

2. right-click on the program's startup short-cut

3. select "Properties"

4. under the "Compatibility" tab, activate the options "Run as administrator"

5. Start BIAB

Also... if you have the Windows version of BIAB, you'll need to set Realband up so that it, too, runs with administrator permissions.

Hope this helps,
Noel

Wow - I really enjoyed this! You absolutely killed it on the guitar. The backing tracks matched perfectly, and everything really compliments each other here. As others mentioned to, the bassline is top notch and you did an awesome job with the mixing.

Great work, and thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

Love your backtrack. You have some very cool phrasing’s with your guitar work. The PRS has some very cool tones tucked away inside it. Nice job Look forward to hearing more of your tunes

Your guitar playing sounds great!

Sorry to hear you've got problems with BiaB - Hopefully you can get that sorted out.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

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."
