Hi all, For this french samba, my friend Patrick Fournerat is singing. https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/ou-est-passe-mon-vague-a-lameHere's an approximate translation : Where has my melancholy gone ? It's not there anymore ! Did it burn in the flames of this samba? As if by magic, my heart is lightening and weighs only one milligram like a little snowflake. I’ve lost my melancholy! For Brazil, I leave Paris and I drift to this samba as to a woman who captivates me. And the ocean that separates us will not have enough waves to oppose my departure. I leave my melancholy on the dock! RD BossaLewis^04 RT 717 Acoustic Bass RT 3238 Acoustic Guitar RT 704 Flute RT 2142 Baritone Sax RT 473 Solo Acoustic Bass

Patrick sounds fantastic as does the backing though the difference in the spaces occupied by the sax and bass solos was a little puzzling - the sax was faded and receding while the bass was up front and aggressive. I'd suggest using the same volume/level and reverb on each of those. nevertheless it's a great sounding track. Well done Christian & Patrick.

Hi Ray, I understand what you say but, unfortunately, I've not kept the bass solo track without reverb. Then, I've tried to decrease the egalisation when it's about 80 Hz… and here's the result ! Christian

Thanks Janice and Bud, I like to collaborate with Patrick. I think he has a great voice to sing brazilian songs (even with french lyrics). I'm composing a bolero for him ! Christian

Beautiful. Love the lyric (translated). Can see the smile in the vocal. The band is spot-on and carries well before taking over and handing back. Very much enjoyed.

What a tune! The production is lush and really professional sounding, and your vocals are top notch. Love the groove too - got my foot tapping from the get go. The samba with the French tinge works way better than I would have anticipated, and I love the solos sprinkled in. Great work, thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Chris,
I enjoyed this one a lot—great sound to it—a little bit of gypsy jazz feel to me as well. Great vocal and I just love that bass solo—works really well in this. Terrific tune!
My best regards to you (and Patrick),
Deej

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."
