I tamed the guitar and bumped the vox tacks in the BG and harmony a few dB so they should be slightly more audible in the mix now....

Thanks for your observational skills.

Herb, I always find it very interesting to hear the old hymns arranged and sung in a new way with a different vocal phrasing of the words from the original traditional way of singing! I like it because it allows the listener to hear the lyrics in a fresh new way. Great job, especially hitting the high note in the chorus.! Thanks, Torrey

Oh, Herb, the updated 12/12 version is way improved over the first posted. Makes an interesting comment that a musician can go back into a song he has already done and tweak it, even thought the first sounded great at the time.
Compared with the first, the second no longer seems hurried or pressured, the consonants d-p-t always a challenge, were given the attention they deserved in the second version, and your natural tremolo vocal came through better. Enjoyed that.
I think Rich Mac has a point in that some contemporary gospel and Christian can be over the top. The genre remains sacred music.

I've never heard it done like this before; but I really wish I had. The younger version of me would have kept his eyes open MUCH better at church. smile

Well done. A really nice original take on a song we know. That can be really hard to pull off.

IN ham radio, we call this a "recheck".... very appreciative that you took the time to post your thoughts on version 2.0 If you're going to tweek something, the primary rule should be, don't break the original. Thanks for pointing out what you hear to be the improvements.

I have heard a version of this that I really love, but I don't recall who did it. Yep....quite a few of the old tunes lend themselves nicely to versions 2.0 and up..... Thank you.

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."
