In need of a reminder of warm beaches, sunshine, - freedom?
A duet between my friend Kay Das, the celebrated steel guitar player from California who stayed with us a short while, and yours truly. Recorded in the magnificence of my enormous Recording Studio - see video. Lol.
BT created one night, literally on the spot, by me in Band In A Box.
Any duff chords, blame Kay. The arguments we had over 'its F", "oh no its not not, its Fmaj7" and so on. Great, fun times!

Happy New Year

Extremely enjoyable guys. Yes, this immediately transports us to an island paradise.

Excellent. I'm looking for a Margarita grin

Wonderfully done! My wife and I honeymooned in Tahiti. I'd like to know your guitar setup...amp, pedals, etc?

Hi Trev, Jeff and Frank and thank you for your kind comments - they are much appreciated.
Frank - welcome to the K.I.S.S Studios. I can't comment on Kays steel guitar, how he plays on so beautifully is a total mystery to me.
But this guitar is a bespoke Stratocaster made to my spec in 2007. - Alder body, BI maple neck, Kinman FV pickups, genuine 1960s Strat bridge etc. It runs into Boss CS3 set lightly to an Alesis Q2 echo unit then via JOYO ACTONE Vox amp emulator to a Cakewalk Guitar Pro2 DAW (from 2004) in Win XP PC. Yes - XP.
Nothing complicated or even new apart from the Strat - and even she's 14 years old this year.

Absolutely gorgeous- I loved this. Definitely transported me to a nicer place ... for a moment, then looked outside to the usual pouring rain (for this time of year where we are).

Thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,

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."
