Hi there,

I have been using bb since the nineties. I started collecting songs then. I also opened a website with many thousands of songs. People contributed to my collection and it became VERY large. The old timers here will remember.

I deleted my website a few years ago. RHARV (Bob Harvey) suggested at the beta test for bb2021 (which, by the way, is GREAT!) that I should rerelease all my stuff.

Therefore I have uploaded my collection for you to download. I ask that you don't overload the system by all going there at once.

There are several categories: melody songs, no melody songs, midi files, real book, Christmas, music. Note that due to the size of the music, that folder has been separated into 5 downloads.

Remember, a lot of this stuff is old. However, it is really helpful when you are looking for the melody or the chords. A lot of songs have lyrics as well. To give you an idea of numbers, there are over 8,000 songs in the melody songs zip. Some are better than others but I am sure that you will find some songs that you have been looking for.

I hope you enjoy the collection.

Please bump this thread if you like it so others may see it.

Enjoy your band in a box with some more music! smile

Allanah, very many thanks for these items. I hope it will, in the next week or two, permit a 76 year old to try out his ***new BIAB 2021 Ultrapack +*** I am most grateful. Very best wishes.

Many of those songs helped this 72 year old so I am sure they will help you.

Hi Allanah,

I managed to DL your entire collection many years ago. I still have it and I still find it very useful.

I do have a question. Are the Christmas, Real Book, and MIDI folders new material or are they files extracted from the original A-Z song lists?

Thanx in advance for your time and a special thanx for reissuing this fabulous collection of songs.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

It's great to see you here again!
I downloaded your files several years ago, but I'm going to download your "refresh".
Thanks so much for posting them.

I think there are quite a few different songs. Mind you there are too many to check out

I believe it is working fine. I just tried it. The link takes you to the files and from there you can download them.

I believe you just right click on the zip you want and choose download. The music books is a folder with zips inside. The music books folder is 5Gb

I looked at them earlier today but did not download them. I just clicked on the like and now I get the message that they are no longer there. Looks like in the past 6 hours, they have been removed by someone.

I suspect the the download sharing limit has been exceeded.

I guess too many people jumped on too quickly.

In Googling about it, Microsoft seems a little elusive about what their limits are, whether a free or business account. But I know Dropbox has daily limits as well. I think My Dropbox paid for-account (I have 2TB storage allows for 200GB of download per day). Given that Allanah's total file size is 25GB, if OneDrive is similar, it's going to lock everyone out after 8 downloads.

Allanah can get to her files because it's her account; it's just not going to work for everyone else.

Hmmm, the total size of the 5 zip files I downloaded is only 40Mb.

Sorry, 5GB not 25 GB (as Allanah stated - the Music Books folder is 5GB; the 40MB is just change in comparison). My original point remains the same.

Allana,

This is a great idee! In spite of having quite a collection of reharmonized songs with melodies myself, I will download your files, as soon as they are available again!

No link for me either.

But you asked to bump, so I will.

If your sharing site is overloaded, I have a site I can host them on if you want. I pay a flat rate for my site, so having extra free downloads won't cost me anything.

Notes


Notes, if you do get them onto your site be very careful as some have the melodies in them and you know the "music police" will come down on you. IIRC they made her take down her site in the first place.

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."
