Hello biab members,

Today I am submitting a soundtrack with a 180 bpm. The main instruments on the melody track are the marimba, the vibraphone and the celeste which plays the same melody and which gives this particular sound. The piano reinforces the sound in a few passages. I imported the midi file of the melody into Biab to find the chords he suggested to me.
For the accompaniment, few realtracks with this tempo were suitable.
I therefore used the midi strings files from biab that I adjusted in my daw by replacing the sound with vst trumpets, brass and strings. For the drum, I took the midi file from a biab loop drum and assigned it a vst from “Eastwest Mor”. For the bass I started with a biab midi file that I improved according to the melody (vst “ Mor”). I finally added some Bells and trills (intro and outro) for the coloring of the song. It's an ambient soundtrack whose title is "happy days".

If you have the time to comment, thank you in advance for your advices.

Hello Derochette ...

I always enjoy your music. This is a big production with a very cinematic theme. A very, very nice use of the various tracks to create such a pleasant listen! The mix is perfect.

That was a fun and very enjoyable listen. Excellent! Take care and be safe. Merry Christmas and Happy new Year.

Beautiful composition and perfect for the season.

As others have and will mention it is very cinematic in nature and it
is easy to imagine the tune in a film.

Well produced and it sounds excellent on our monitors.

Enjoyed it!

Yep.... I agree. I could hear this playing as underscore in a film.

Nice

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."
