Jim & David, A very smooth sound- that relaxed almost country crooner quality of Jim`s vocal is presented beautifully here. I like the pure simplicity of the song and David has stayed true to the feeling in the mix. Usually I can spot those Helicon harmonies but they blend well and maybe its the reverb gives the song that very smooth texture. Good work- I Enjoyed!
I LOVE the sound of the BLOCKFISH compressor but I can't get it to run properly on my new computer. This vocal is a perfect example of how well it can work. Good song & performance Jim - clever mix David.

Jim @ David, This came out very good! I liked original version, but David took this a Big step higher, not screwing up original vibe. Congrats to both of you and thank you for sharing!
Wow this really sounds good. I have the big speakers setup up in the garage and I turned it up pretty loud. Amazing sound. I was listening really close for the harmonies. They sounded very natural and.

Jim and David this is a great song and mix. Jim, your vocals were spot on and the lyrics are great. David's mix was perfect.
There's a lot to like about this song!
Thanks Mario... For your continued comments & support... But all the credit should go to David on this one... He took my vocal & dressed it up so beautifully!

Thanks Floyd... For always listening & commenting... But the credit should definitely go to David on this one... His knowledge & abilities are what took the song to a higher level!
waht a beautiful li'l love song. Jim, I always love the way you sing (whatever genre you surprise us with), and this kind of song is surely something that looks especially good on you.
It was a good song before, but now it's at a whole other level, sounds fabulous.
Nice one Jim and David!
Thanks Dave... For your listen & wonderful comments... However... Its David production skills that really put the sheen on the tune!

and a wonderful tune too!
Thanks Marty... For listening & commenting... Yeah... David does seem to have a knack for polishing a song... And making it shine!
As I'm sitting here with my headphones on, listening, thoughts that are passing through my mind include: such a friendly and easy-on-the ears sound; I love Jim's way with words; David has created a wonderfully warm mix; Jim's singing always rings with honesty and sincerity; it's so easy to imagine this group just up in front of me; what a very relaxing groove; love what they've done.
In other words, you won me over.
Thank you both a really pleasant musical journey. Noel
Amazing! It is not a style of music that I usually listen to, but the quality of this song and the mix just shines. Very well done! Will
Thanks Will... I always appreciate your comments & support... And I'll bet David does also!

Thanks Martin... David really deserves the credit for the sheen on this one... But I do appreciate you comments & support!
Beautiful! Deceptively, seemingly simple and simply beautiful. You've got one of those voices that actually COMMUNICATE the song you sing - and the song itself says it all without artifice and/or pretence. My kind of music! :-)
Well done...both of you. A sincere write and vocal performance wrapped in an excellent production!
We are huge fans of open, airy mixes like this. Excellent soundstage. Enjoyed it! Nice vid too. J&B
Thanks to both of you... For you listen & support... David certainly did an outstanding job on this tune!

Dave, what a flawless sound, really well-done. Enjoyed the listen (and watch) a lot.
All the best, Stefan
Thanks Stefan... For you continued comments & support... I think I was fortunate when David offered to remix the song!
Good job, guys! Really nice song, well put together. Great melody for this. Enjoyed it! Steve
Thanks Steve... You know I'm a big fan of your music... So your support means a lot!

With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
