Dear Forum Friends,

Sorry for the long absence from the forum. Life has been pretty busy this past year. That's why we decided to write a New Year's Eve song to help get things started on the right foot. Yes, I know it's February. Like I said, it's been pretty busy lately. My secret New Year's resolution was to get myself back into the studio and start writing again.

We hope you like it. It's never too late to be joyful.

Here's the link and our website:

It's New Year's, Eve

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hey SD ...

So nice to have you posting again! Missed you.

This sounds about as good as any New Years song I've heard - better than any I can think of. You nailed the happy, spirited feel. The horns wree a real nice choice. And like David, I really enjoyed the wide-panned vocal bursts. Cool, castchy song. Really nice!

Best to you. Take care ...

Busy day in the forum. Thanks for listening.

Dave, Thanks. I'm getting the hang vocal harmonies. They don't come naturally for me.

Leon, Hi pleased to meet you. Glad you liked it.

Alan, Thank goodness all my friends and family are well and doing fine. I hope the same for you. This pandemic teleworking routine doesn't leave much time for music. My wife and collaborator suggested a New Year's Eve song. Although I like "Old Lang Syne" and "What are you Doing New Year's Eve" I always thought we needed something more joyful, optimistic, and celebratory. I used the horns as homage to those old tunes.

Liked your creative use of the C-F two-chord motif.
Nice, positive message--I like that!
I think you're a keyboard player, and I was interested that on your bridge you took the Ab-->Bb-->Gm, C route...something that seems very natural on a keyboard, maybe not so much on a guitar.
I'll echo all the comments on the vocal panning, nice effect.
Thanks for this constructive track!

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!

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

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."
