A great song from the Toy Story film series.
I can't post my 'original' guitar audio recording of this great tune in Showcase as a) it's a 'cover' and b) I dont do video.
But - my good friend Phil McGarrick DOES do video and he's a pretty good guitarist too.
So here is his video of him playing my arrangement of 'You've Got A Friend In Me' to my BIAB BT. Hope you followed all that. ;-)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96PhmFkYGVw

The arrangement was created entirely in BIAB, apart from the Clarinet which is a separate audio recording added at the DAW stage.
The Style is _2Pence with additional RTs -
RealTracks in style: 1205:Bass, Acoustic, GypsyJazzBallad Sw 110 ('A' Only)
RealTracks in style: 1791:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm DixielandMedium Sw 110
RealTracks in style: 1210:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm GypsyJazzBalladJohn Sw 110
RealTracks in style: 1966:Clarinet, Soloist DixielandMediumA-B Sw 110
RealTracks in song: 1543:Synth Pad, PopBelieve Ev16 065
RealTracks in song: 1792:Tuba, DixielandMedium Sw 110
RealDrums [in style:NashvilleBrushesHillbillySwing: a: Sidestick, Brushesb: Brushes, Stick

Don't you just love that beautiful Gibson J200.
The more I attempt with BIAB, the more amazed I am at its capabilities and what it draws out of me.
Cheers
Ian

Great performance. Phil delivered a masterful rendition, (as I'm sure others here have equally done...)
Excellent!

Great playing. Check out this one he did. Really interesting perspective with the camera mounted on the head stock.

Ian,

What a great song arrangement! Thank you for sharing this with us. In my opinion your song arrangement is professional quality.

PG Music should obtain the rights to this performance and use it to demonstrate how powerful and professional sounding Band-in-a-Box can be when used by someone that is talented, knowledgeable and skilled.

Sorry for the delay.
Thank you to all who commented on the very kind words both for Phil and myself. Much appreciated.
It was Trev (our VideoTrack) who got me on the right road in a Post in the General section by offering _2Pence as a Style that might suit what I looking for. Boy, did it!
Filled it out with a few extra RTs - that TUBA for example is perfect in there.
I use it now in my general Club Night 'gigs' Set and it always comes as a big surprise as its is so different to my normal "Shadows" type material.
Very bests
Ian and Phil

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."
