Alan,
I hope your wife recovers. I'll say a prayer for her tonight. I dpn't mind if your comment is brief. I'm just happy you took the time to listen and to shoot me a response. Thanks!

You really did an outstanding job here! Your vocals are stunning, and I love the quirky lyrics to pair with them. You included some really great progressions on this too, with a nice catchy hook. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing 
Cheers,
Deryk

Reminded me of when I worked patrol and the once-a-week call to the same resident who thought he was being downloaded by the CIA via radio waves directed at his home. He literally had tinfoil everywhere in his home.
Very nicely done, love the instrumentation and melody. Great job !

Scott, this is a very interesting piece! You had so much going on here that it's hard to absorb it all, I thought I even heard a mellotron! It all works together nicely! Great job! Thanks, Torrey

Hello Scott,
wouldn't have expected a somng like this after that hot threesome intro... But I like the unexpected as much as you do - just awesaome. Everything great with this song, but I especially enjoyed the lyrics a lot.
Thanks for another great song.
All the best,
Stefan

This is very interesting and unique. So many gems in there to find. Loved that intro, and the reversed sounding synth.
Yeah I like it a lot.
This certainly ups the bar on creativity.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but you can't do both.

Alan,
I hope your wife recovers. I'll say a prayer for her tonight. I dpn't mind if your comment is brief. I'm just happy you took the time to listen and to shoot me a response. Thanks! Thank You! Her recovery continues - slowly but surely. She's been singing a bit from her bed. I set up a small recording ensemble nest to her bed. She can only do a song a day as she runs out of breath. She's posted a couple recently to an online karaoke site we belong to. I think it's helping her emotionally and works to get her breathing back to normal a little more quickly. Wishing you the very best ... Alan & Di

Revisit: Eyes on Success featuring PG Music Inc., Band-in-a-Box®, and the Updated JAWS Script
In the past, Eyes on Success featured an episode that discussed our company history and Band-in-a-Box® program with Tobin, our chief development officer, including how Band-in-a-Box® is even more accessible with the help of their JAWS screen reader scripts!
Later on this month, Eyes on Success will be releasing an episode that features Gudrun Brunot talking about her new tutorials about how to use Band-in-a-Box® with JAWS.
It's a great idea to pair the two episodes together!

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Review - Band-in-a-Box® 2023 for Windows is Overflowing with Features!
Dennis posted his very thorough Band-in-a-Box® review recently, where he dives into some of the new features added with version 2023: Sound-Guy's Band-in-a-Box Review
Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!
"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is, without negative connotation, a monster of a program. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. No DAW can do some of the things BIAB does, while BIAB can do a lot that DAWs do."
