Hey band in a box community. I am developing a free play along app for guitar players and need a variety of recordings of well known public domain songs. (Like Amazing Grace, Aura Lee etc).

Both Instrumental and vocal versions are okay but I do prefer vocals.

To submit send the mp3 to joanne at joannecooper dot co dot za

Ps I cannot guarantee that I will use songs that I receive because I am looking for quite specific things.

I had a query on the Facebook group on what types of things I m looking for so I thought it would be a good idea to repost my answer here in for people interested in sending some songs.

I am looking for quite simple chords and instrumentation and tuned vocals (both male and female). Here are some of the songs I am thinking of.

Take me out to the ball game
Oh Susanna
The House of the rising sun
El Condor Pasa
Auld Lang Syne
Kumbaya
That’s All Right
The Lion Sleeps tonight
The star spangled banner
Greensleeves
Amazing Grace
Danny Boy
Swing low Sweet chariot
Oh My Darling Clementine
500 Miles
All of Me
Aura Lee
Banana Boat song
Oh Mary don’t you weep
The Sky Boat song
Dark Island
This Land Is Your Land
Loch Lomond
Early one morning
Gentle annie
Goodnight Irene
Shenandoah
Lorena
John Henry
Hard times come again no more
We shall Overcome
The Water is Wide

PD in which countries? That is a HUGE factor as the laws greatly vary. If the song is PD in the USA then it is likely PD everywhere as US laws are very strict. In the US new PD songs are added every Jan 1. This started by law a few years ago. This year songs from 1925 were added, last year from 1924, etc. a Google search based on the above will give you a lot of songs. For example a search on US public domain songs 2021, 2020, 2019, etc. There are a lot of them. We mine that treasure trove often. smile

Hey Bud. Thanks for this. It would be for the USA since the app will be on IOS App store and the play store and both Apple and Google are in the US.

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.

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."
