Registered: 05/12/12 Posts: 2686 Loc: South Africa JoanneCooper Veteran Registered: 05/12/12 Posts: 2686 Loc: South Africa	I am trying to write a few songs for 50 90 this year. I know I am not getting to gt anywhere close to 50 but, hey, even one or two is better than none! These lovely lyrics were written by Cindy Prince. The inspiration for the melody came from Kate Rusby. https://soundcloud.com/joannecoopersa/i-am-thinking-of-you-with-cindy-prince The style used was BABBLE (Babbling Slow Americana) RealTracks in style: 2877:Bass, Acoustic, AmericanaSlow16thsByron Ev16 060 RealTracks in style: 2879:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm AmericanaSparseSlow16thsColin Ev16 060 RealTracks in style: 2878:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm AmericanaSlow16thsBrent Ev16 060 RealTracks in style: 3074:Mandolin, Rhythm AmericanaSlow16thsAndy Ev16 060 RealDrums [in style:AmericanaRoots16th^01-a:Toms, b:Snare I added a midi flute of the melody using Dimension Pro Lyrics: Thinking of You © 2019 Cindy Prince When the skies are cloudy When the skies are blue When there's only the moon shining I am thinking of you When the snow is falling When the sun shines bright When the tiny green leaves are growing Thinking of you feels right Chorus When I blink I think of you When I shave Yes, that too When I talk When I walk Every day anew I am thinking of you When the rain is pouring When the leaves start to fall When a strong wind is blowing Thinking of you is my all Repeat chorus _________________________ https://www.joannecooper.co.za https://www.playiit.com https://www.playiit.com/free-songbook https://www.facebook.com/groups/song.a.day.challenge

The instruments are nicely chosen. They fit in very well. At first glance (hearing) I had some doubts with the Americana percussion, but that vanished when listening again.

(Not sure why, but the main vocal seems to "lean a bit left" in my speakers. Might just be perception.) Good mix. _________________________ 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!

Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software

A few of my favorite statements:

"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."

(I think our name was a great start!)

"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."

"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
