Hi all.
Just written this cheerful and light-weight song about UFO hunting,a subject I have a long interest in,used the folk strumming Realtracks with myself playing all the other parts on SampleTank 3.

That's a really creative subject to choose for a song! Definitely resulted in a neat outcome for the song. Thanks for sharing.

Nice work - love the stripped back nature of the tune. You really gave it room to breathe, and it sets a nice atmosphere. A really smooth and well textured song.

Thanks for sharing smile

Cheers Ember and Deryk,did you notice a passing hint of the Close Encounters of the 3rd kind theme at the end?

Nice composition...
It should make a great audio file to add to a video about night time on Tikaboo Peak...
I've never visited there but it sounds like you may have...
And if you have, you probably have recorded some great video images...
Good job...
However, I wished I could have seen the lyrics.

Thanks guys,no Jim I’ve never been to Tikaboo but I watch UFO SEEKERS stuff on YouTube and it’s a fascinating area,I have seen several UFO’S over the past 40 years,including a flying disc in the 80s,it was remarkable.
Cheers everyone for the comments.

Some really interesting stuff. The close & personal nature of the vocal works well though perhaps too well when it comes to lip smacks and otehr "noises".
I think editing these with level automation of a gate would really enhance the song.


Cheers

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."
