Looks like I'm a little slow to get to it, here, but anyway, better late than never. I'm a long time Alan Jackson listener; but I confess, I had thought Alan got lost in Key West and forgot the way back. Not so. He's been touring, lo and behold, with none other than Real Tracks artist Brent Mason. Now I find out Brent is Nashville's guitar legend, toiling away in the studio and, in this video, 18 million views later, nailing it as an Alan Jackson side man as he nailed his Band in the Box task. (Seen to the left of the screen.) Here they are at the Ryman playing to the cream of the Nashville social register.
Yeah, Brent Mason, who, along with John Jarvis, produced the Bent Piano style for Band in a Box, one of the true master works of the Band in a Box style suite.

Alan Jackson and Brent Mason "Washed in the Blood"

Brent is the man, no doubt! Super nice guy too. I "discovered" him through BIAB, and have since been humbled to with him on some studio work for my band, Midwestern Lull. Check it out! https://youtu.be/f7fbcG-0Diw

You got me kinda choked up with "Miracle to Me," there, Mark. That's all right, though. You're good.
I've been a little disheartened over the past several years watching Nashville probe this and that, seeming to be trying to find a new niche. Going back to basics has been a saving grace, but, really, the last radio set, couple of years ago, of seven different ways of describing chasing the naked other around the house just about did me in. Your band is as they are saying, a breath of fresh air.
So, Brent Mason. Yeah. In one of the Alan Jackson "Washed in the Blood," he turns after a guitar solo and says, "Brent Mason!" Then it looks like You Tube downgraded that video to hard to find. Or, they recorded over it. All I could think of was it was a royalty matter. I'd hate to think things are that bad.
Anyway, Brent sure has done some good things with BB. I posted before my amazement at how they can get something like that to work. John Jarvis, too.

That is nicely down..... professional. Do you mean that Brent was hired to play on this or you used RB/BB tracks. It's hard to know just by listening as the RB tracks are so freaking good.

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."
