Happy New Year folks.
Here’s my last completed BB track of 2018,a simple Bluegrass instrumental which I think is great fun,I just used the traditional Bluegrass Realtracks.

Cool backtrack Rick. Pauses were neat with the banjo

"Riccled"...

"Azure Grassbag" moves like a galloping horse racing against a steamboat! And who could resist such blistering banjo picking??? Yeee-hawww!

But, then again, you introduce even more interest in the composition through alternating major/minor-sounding passages that impart some dramatic tension to the proceedings. The effect is sustained in a different way in those few measures where you silence the banjo rhythm track under the melody; they function like quiet bridges that allow the listener to rest for a bit before the explosive energy of each consecutive verse is unleashed.

Would you tell me what was the melody instrument? It sounded like a harmonium to me.

Thanks for the roaring, rousing listening experience, "Riccled"!

Sincerely,

LOREN

Nice work on this Riccled smile The groove on this thing is infectious, and got my toe tapping immediately. Really playful, and it makes for an engaging listen. Really easy on the ears. I can imagine this sounding really nice performed live.

Really well done - thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

Hi Loren.
Thanks for another interesting and perceptive review,it’s an old French Accordian sound on Sampletank 3 that I used for it,I think it works well,so glad you enjoyed it,will do more in the coming months!

I thought that sounded like an accordion. It adds an unusual and pleasing flavor to your bluegrass composition. FUN!

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.

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."
