Welcome to the forum! Man, what a hell-of-a-first post! Those backing tracks were great. Your vocal was excellent.
This was fantastic!
PS- I think we have the same best friend!
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hey Mario! Thank you for your feedback. BiaB is an outstanding product. Given the superbly produced RealTracks/RealDrums, I've become less dependent on my own mediocre performance/recording skills. For me, it's all about the song, not my ability (or inability) to play or record it. I'm putting more quality time into BiaB, then post-production in my DAW (Cakewalk Sonar), Melodyne, and several iZotope tools to produce songs. My productivity has increased ten-fold. Don't get me wrong, I still love to play but I don't have the pressure to play multiple takes until I an acceptable recording performance. I'm having a blast.

Thank you, Deryk. Kudos to PG Music! My only regret is that I just discovered BiaB a year ago. I wish I'd known about this magic years ago. I'm making up for lost time.

Marc,
Love that opening; really pulls the listener in. And the vocal is smooth, sitting really well in the mix. Nice work on the solo as well; really pretty. If this is a first post the forum, it’s a terrific start.
Kind regards,
Deej

Thank you, Deej. I appreciate your comments! I've been a home studio enthusiast for many years and have posted a few music videos on YouTube and some songs on SoundCloud. Productivity has skyrocketed with BiaB. This is, however, my first post here in the User Showcase. Thanks again.

Hi Marc,
I really enjoyed the journey that you took me on with this song.
As I sat here listening, I smiled an awful lot because I was very impressed at how you used personification of the guitar to create this story. It was nicely told with lots of good imagery. You won me over!
And I agree with you, BIAB is brilliant. I know that I write so much better because I get BIAB to do the heavy lifting. The program frees me up so that I can concentrate on words and music. Not a day goes by that I don't sit down with the program and create something.
It's great to see you jump into the forum.
All the best,
Noel

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!

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."
