Here's the Band in a Box backing track for an original country gospel song in progress. Still hooked into that Apostolic groove which applies itself to the country style, bent piano. Mixdown done in real time with onboard BIAB panel; recorded and rendered in Audacity. Original Country Gospel in GMaj

It's been sometime since I stepped into a church.
If this is what's going on in there it can understand why people would want more.
Well done.

Thanks, Captain Moto, for that comment. For those willing to enter the field, church music, often called worship music, can be challenging and rewarding. The music is a reflection of the worship style & has been for as long as we can remember. (Thinking: sober, classical, formal, liturgical, traditional church.) Contemporary styles, of which gospel may be considered one of, is in line with this often overlooked principle.

Ed - That's a real nice track. It's got that really nice country swing to it and a really mellow and sombre yet uplifting progression to it. The piano in particular is quite pleasant. There's a lot of potential there.

Thanks, Gents. I won't say I'm not happy with it, so far. I'm busy laying in the words & will likely send this off to copyright, fair use. As you know, a lot can happen between having two verses and needing the third

Thanks, Robert. What is going on there is the piano is full on the third (I think) verse for a solo and backed off to make room for three rounds of vocals to be addded. Still, I'm glad to hear you say that, because the John Jarvis piano worked so well with the structure. He's amazing. If I hadn't heard it, I wouldn't believe it were possible to sit down and create piano riffs with such flexibility as to work right in to many different songs. That's my knowledge gap, but, fortunately, not so for Dr. Gannon or John Jarvis Anyway, point well taken. I'll remember that for the next mix.

Nice Ed.
Although a backing track it has a pleasant almost melodic feel as is.
Look forward to where it lands.

Thanks, Greg. I put a fresh start on that backing track & vocals and it sounds better already.

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."
