Last month, a friend of mine who is starting a podcast, asked me to do his music. This is the theme we're starting with. It's a podcast intro with voice over. https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14171516Caleb wrote the words. He wanted a classic rock groove and selected this style out of 8 examples I sent. Your thoughts are appreciated.

It's perfect - wakes you up and grabs your attention with that signature Herb Hartley sound. Also the cigar smoking , politically incorrect Caleb sounds like my kind of guy.:)
Have a great music making 2021.
cheers
Gary.

I think Caleb picked the right intro! He sounds like my kind of guy. Do you know where and when his podcast will air?
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.
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Herb.. really good demonstration of the utilitarian aspect of music composition, where it’s important to be attention grabbing, concise, and not too distracting, but at the same time interesting. I’d love to see more of these kinds of applications of music composition in the forum. Excellent work!

I've always thought that this type thing would be a good application for BIAB. Pop in a couple of chords and you've got good background music.
Coming from you, I would have thought a rock-based cue would be more guitar-centric with a Keith Richards kind of catchy lick... this is pretty bass heavy. If your customer is happy, that's all that matters.

If your customer is happy, that's all that matters. You're correct. This was a hurry up and get something. I'm going to dig back in and redo it with my picking. The official start of the show is still to be determined. Thanks for your insight

So.... Caleb has his premiere episode up on the net. Go to. Podbean.com and use the search function to look for Revolutions Revival. That should get you there. BTW.... The final version was edited a bit. Guitars were added. And I high passed it. I'm listening to Revolution's Revival with Caleb Shumate | This is the Dawn: Revolution's Revival Premiere on Podbean, check it out! https://www.podbean.com/ea/pb-54h96-f72e8bhttps://revolutionsrevival.podbean.com/e/this-is-the-dawn-revolutions-revival-premiere/

Hi GuitarHacker,
The composition is short and does not allow you to fully appreciate your work. It's quite sober and classic but the quality is there.
Kindly regards
Take care of you

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!

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."
