With the help from Band In A Box I had great pleasure breathing some new life into this old tune. The tune is in the key of "F" and only has two chords. Mixing was done in Studio one. The tune is a little long winded but that's how it was written. (Not sure why but the tune stop suddenly at the end on soundcloud, it doesn't on the original) All comments welcome. Rob4508 Down In The Valley 1820 author not know Down in the valley the valley so low Hang your head over, hear the wind blow Hear the wind blow love, hear the wind blow Hang your head over, hear the wind blow For Roses love sunshine, violets love dew The Angels in heaven, know i love you If you don't love me, love whom you please Put your arms round me, give my heart ease Give my heart ease love, give my heart ease Put your arms round me, give my heart ease Bridge Write me a letter, send it by mail Send it in care of, the Birmingham Jail Birmingham Jail love, Birmingham Jail Send it in care of, the Birmingham Jail Build me a castle, forty feet high So I can see her, as she rides by As she rides by love, as she rides by So I can see her, as she rides by Down in the valley, the valley so low Hang your head over, hear the wind blow **** Song Summary ********* Title: Down in the valley File:Down in the valley.SGU Key=F , Tempo 110, Length (m:s)=4:59 4 bar intro, 176 bar chorus, from bar 5 to bar 180.

I liked where the story went in verse 3 with the poor bloke in jail dreaming of watching his sweetheart ride by! Good work reviving this. Robert

Hadn't heard this song in years, though it was one we used to butcher on road-trips when I was a kid. Nice one. BIAB 2021 Audiophile. Windows 10 64bit.

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."
