Hello Alan,

that's a lovely one, too (would anyone expect anything else?) - that soloist track is just awesome, I think.

Hope that Di and you had a happy Christmas - once again Maha and I would like to wish both of you a most healthy and enjoyable 2021.

Looking forward to a buch of new songs from you and some very pleasant communivication.

All the very best,

Stefan

Hi Guys!

Thank you very much. Most of the credit goes to BIAB. I just picked out a few tracks and threw a couple of chords in the soup. Hope your New year is the best ever.

Hi Ember ...

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the song. But, as I told Janice and Bud, much of the applause should directed to BIAB - it's such a wonderful product. Thank all of you for creating this marvelous software for us musicians. Wishing you and PG Music a really good 2021.

Stefan, My Dear Friend,

I hope all is well with you and your lovely Maha. Di and I are doing okay. We're getting settled into our new house. Also bought all new furniture. The checkbook is nervous! The house and furniture was our Christmas present to each other. I don't usually spend that much at Christmas!

I'm delighted you enjoyed the song. I sincerely appreciate the very nice compliments. Thank you! I, too, really enjoyed that acoustic guitar track. I heard it & loved it within a matter of seconds.

I do have a few more songs waiting in the wings. I'll be posting one every week or so.

I hope 2021 brings Maha better health and you that your visual problems stabilize. As you know, my technical background is visual health and I understand what is happening with your sight. Wishing nothing but the very best for both of you. Cheers and warmest heart-felt wishes.

Alan & Di


PS: For those who do not know, Stefan has some significant visual problems that make reading smaller print very difficult for him. Thus the larger font for my replies to him. And yes, Stefan has no problem with me mentioning his visual issues.

Hi Misha ...

Thank you very much. And yes, in my ear it has a slight hint of Latin Influence. I raised the level of the brushes more than I usually do ti help that influence. I'm delighted you enjoyed. Thanks for letting me know!

Happy New Year, my friend.

Alan

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."
