Thank you Josie for checking out the song. So glad you liked it. Will be experimenting more with different sounds to try and keep my music interesting.

Sweet song....appropriately titled!! When I read your desciption, I thought you'd really get unhinged with the fx but they are pretty tame and well-applied. Melody is gorgeous, and I really like that synth percussive element. Enjoyed much!! Take care. Greg

A very nice and gentle composition that is suitable for all ages.

Sounds great Scott. Beautiful tone.

Some effect around 2:50 makes it sound like it's clipping though. Hard to tell whether it is intentional or an actual clip.

But a great tune man.

All the best,

Thanks allot Noel. Always trying to find something new and interesting. Glad you liked the song.

Thanks Stephan I am glad you checked out the song...

Some cool sounds happening though! And as always, nice melodic playing.



Thanks Dave for checking out the song. I didn't know very much about recording and daw's and plugins when I first started playing again. I didn't even know how to mike the amp. Do I use a shure mic with a converter mixer or a usb mike. Was very confusing. So I looked for way to get the old school tones at reasonable volume levels. A daunting task.

Thank you for the kind words Ed. I really appreciate it. I am glad you liked the song.

Thank you Floyd for checking out the song. It is amazing how these effects can change the mood of the song. Make it angry make it sad. So glad you liked the song..

Thanks so much for the comments. I am glad you mentioned how you achieved your live tone. I have been doing a lot of experimentation with using two amps. One dry one with effects. Even these ne pedals are including a mix control which controls the blend from a dry signal.. So glad you like the song..

It's very peaceful and dreaming but always keeps you engaged...that's a great sweet spot to hit!

Lovely and wonderfully performed.

Scott,

Lovely and wonderfully performed.
As others pointed out, the change of guitar tones is very effective.

Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Some pretty (and very recognizable as you despite the effects)playing. Nice use of the sound palette and a very relaxing listen.

Thanks David for checking out the song. Interesting you mentioned the clipping. Pretty sure the clipping is coming from the wah. When I hold it in a certain spot it sure sounds like its clipping. Will play with it some more and see where that is coming from. Glad you liked the song.

Thanks Peter. After I played the song back while mixing. I found the song was reminding me of Conjola the song we did together. Glad you liked the song..

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."
