For anyone that doesn't already know this, Waves is doing their annual black Friday free plugin.

There has been a few good ones in the past, and this year it will be a new one from CLA.

You need to sign up in advance and they send you the download link on Friday.

I’m a big fan of the CLA series and own them all. Easy to use and typically get the job done. CLA Drums + RealDrums is great. And CLA Unplugged is super with piano and acoustic guitar RT’s.

I have a few of the CLA series. I use CLA Guitars and CLA Bass on every song, and CLA Unplugged when I have acoustic guitar tracks, sometimes on piano.

Bud, do you have the newer ones also, CLA MixHub and CLA MixDown?

Well, I misspoke when I said I have them all - mine are all individual track fx so no I don’t have those two but am familiar with them.

I absolutely love my tweaked CLA Room Overhead preset for drums, my tweaked CLA Unplugged presets Piano Man and Shiney Acoustic for pianos and acoustic guitars. I’ve occasionally use CLA Bass but my go to is Neutron 3. I’ve used CLA Vocals but mostly for BGVs.

Beyond the CLA series I used the Waves LinMB for years but am now using the multband compressor from ozone 9. I’m also using Ozone’s maximizer exclusively instead of Waves.

It's a slap delay and a plate reverb in one plugin, with routing options so you can have them in parallel or series or individually enabled or disabled.

CLA has been doing a video series on how he uses delays and reverbs in his mixes over the last couple of weeks, so not to be unexpected.

I already do what the plugin does in my mixes, but might he handy to have them both in one plugin. And, can't argue with the price wink

Today is the only day it will be free.

Bob, that happened to me once a couple of years ago with the black friday deal. Send them an email and let them know, their support team is pretty responsive.

Interesting, it turns out the free CLA EchoSphere plugin is a teaser for the full product which is called CLA Epic, released today. Four delays and four reverbs in one plugin. On sale for $29 for the next 24 hours.

I might pull the plug on it.

CLA demos it here:

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!

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."
