Well, I took this style and kept about a minute of it, and played it for my 3-year old granddaughter, with the express purpose of seeing whether she could sing. She loves the Disney songs, and would try and sing them, and I remember a post somewhere about people who listen to chords and make up a melody, almost as a career, and I thought, why not see if she can sing along. I think she did quite nicely. I then brought it into Reaper and added some Nectar and Ozone. So I think she's a natural singer. And Biab tells me so.

That was cute Marty. She did very well for her age. The backtrack was cool as well. My mother started me very young with music as well. Best gift anyone can get

Marty,

Darn right,the girl`s a natural. I`d say your experiment has opened up a young singer to some possibilities- way to go!

Dear Mr. Sorenson...

I believe that little Miss Kira sings with such innocent, yet determined musicality that it was easy for me to imagine her loosening-up even more if the recording has lasted long enough! It seemed to my ear that she followed the root of the chord changes with as much accuracy of pitch as she could muster. There's no doubt to me that she "felt" the mood of your cool, lushly arranged and easy-swinging RealTrack selections. The breaks in her phrasing convinced me that she was thinking about what she would sing, and when and how she would sing it, from one "verse" to the next. I'm convinced of that.

May I ask, did you rehearse this with her, or did you just let her fly on a first and only recording session? Regardless, this was an utterly charming and impressive singing debut for a three year-old child.

With a big smile and an incredulous shake-of-the-head,

LOREN

That's cute. My two boys love music too. They are 1 and almost 4 years old. The other night the oldest had his guitar and they were both singing giving me a private performance of some Christmas song lol. Kids are great entertainment. Funny thing is I never liked kids till I had my own.

Hello, Marty

Very cute!
What a lovely singing!
It is a bit difficult melody for children to sing, but she is singing properly.
I'm looking forward to seeing how her singing grows.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

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."
