Just wanted you all to know that Ive emailed the Queen (Elizabeth11) asking her to grant knighthoods to some of the forum users on here (you know who you are).This is for their charity work in helping poor newbies like me (and others you know who you are) with their questions which at times seem as basic as it can get.The help is always given with "love"and "understanding" to such a poor men/women starting out on such a journey.So who knows it might now be Sir Mac..Sir Matt etc..Cheers Frankie

Good thing none of them are Canadian. It's illegal to get bee nighted which is a tad weird seeing as Liz is on all our money and stamps and has a freeway named after her along with 20,000 schools. Well so you have an idea how old I really am my younger sister went to Princess Elizabeth Public School, which is still open today with the same name. And of course the Queen Victoria Hospital, alongside the Queen Vic Tavern. The first is now just called the Vic the latter the bucket 'o blood.

I have to rewrite the words to a Bobby Darin ditty, so It's Mac the Knight.

That says Nicht.

I hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal.

Therefore, even in the unlikely event that she ever offered the title, I'd have to refuse it.


But the sentiment given here is much appreciated.


Thanks, tributeman!

Mac, it may be true that all men are CREATED equal, it has not been my experience that everybody DEVELOPS equally. In the final analysis (whether due to upbringing or personal diligence or intellect or talent or motivation or whatever) some people end up shining brighter than many others.

If knighthood was the only way of recognizing that brightness, I'd have to agree that your name should be on the list. In more than one way, you stand head and shoulders above many who profess to be experts in the same fields as you.

I *knew* someone would have to come along and say that...

Knighthood, however, is not entirely an academic accolade.

I must admit, I'm in awe of Mac.

You and Finley ain't too shabby, either, John.

But I'm way older...by months. More punnage under the bridge.

That has me falling down here in London.

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."
