Hi Ember,

Thank you for your feedback. I am glad you like this song.

Yes, Japan is definitely nice country to visit. I wish my song could really transport you to Japan smile , but ...

I hope you will have a chance to visit here near future.

The vocal is amazing as is the whole production. Lush and so well mixed.

Listening is like watching a gentle stream flowing by you.

Thank you for your feedback. I am glad you like the song especially its melody and vocal. I agree. I believe Sinsy has made significant progress for years.

Hello HiroshiK,

this is indeed a very beautiful and sweet song, and it's sounding really great. And it's good to be reminded once in a while of how versatile BIAB is. Great job.

Take care,

Stefan

Hello, again, "HiroshiK"...

Yes, I will be happy to re-experience your fine composition while viewing the video.

Whenever User's Forum members post songs that are accompanied by videos, I always chose to listen to them only as music first, before I watch the videos. I feel that this choice allows me to imagine my own "sound pictures", so to speak, as I absorb the music.

I'll "get back to you" after seeing it, "HiroshiK"!

You've managed to wrangle the technology to do justice to a lovely melody.

Hi rayc,

Thank you for your feedback. I was happy to see that this song was well accepted by non-Japanese people though the vocal (or lyrics) is in Japanese. I looked into the reason why. I might be quite wrong, but I suppose it is because the voice of the virtual singer Yoko well matches the melody, and the characteristics of Japanese also well suite it. I understand Japanese has following characteristics.
- Every tone is based on a vowel.
- Basically one tone is allocated to one note in a song.

Thank you again, LOREN

I think your policy, music first and video next, is absolutely right.

I look forward to your next message.

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."
