Playback including backing vocals come from BIAB. In addition, there are some bells, additional drums and pad sounds and, of course, the lead vocal.

I am a BIAB user from Germany and this is my first post here. It's a Christmas song reflecting about feelings of loneliness during Corona lockdown. Hope you enjoy it and maybe even relate to it.

Uwe Fischer,

Welcome to the forum and to Band-in-a-Box. This is an excellent sounding mix. The song has an interesting arrangement and the mix itself is clear and polished.

Do you have a German mix available for comparison? I would be interested in also hearing it to compare how the vocal phrasing matches between the two.

Hi Jim, thanks a lot. I am not exactly sure what you mean by German mix...do you mean a German language version of the song? I do not have yet although I have the lrics already in my drawer. Or did I misunderstand you?

Thanks for the comment. I checked back and know what you mean. But it is not a typo. Actually it is w but the font makes it look like n. I will not use this font anymore. Good that you pointed it out.

I think the addition of the bells really gave the song that extra bit of charm to really push the holiday vibe! Thanks for sharing it with us.


Cheers,

Hi Jim, I will let you know if I record my German version. Currently it is not planned, I am a little bit late by now.

Hi Jim, not sure if this may interest you but someone wrote a Dutch text to my song and sang it live. If you want to listen to that version you will find it here:

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."
