Now I can listen to Justin Bieber as it was meant to sound!!...lol

Big time 1/2 watt amp and a huge 2 inch speaker. About $15.00 in total.

Of course it is connected to a iPhone 8 at around $700.00. Welcome to 2021.

I don't own an MP3 player so have no idea what they cost.

You just haven't lived until you have listen to Pink Floyd playing Time on a rig like this...lol

lol...This is the first time I ever listen to any music on my phone. I have been told people like to download songs to MP3 players. I have a neighbor who has a pretty good size powered speaker that will operate "Blue Tooth" from his phone.

I "assume" one could run the output of a MP3 player or a small CD player through this little amp.

I have some high quality 12 inch speakers doing nothing so I may build a wireless system with a high quality transistor amp. Much more complex solid state project! We will see.

I am amazed at how much cells phones cost now days!

Great looking amp Billy, but can it go to eleven?!?

Jk, I built one similar to that, stuck it in a pedal enclosure with a 1/4 output so I can run a 2x12 cab from it.

Hockey players who retire and join the RCMP must render you catatonic... (Says the high school hockey goon who could barely skate...)

I know you Canadians get the last laugh, and not just because it's your company. In our little town, the majority of phone complaints to town hall are about the Canadian geese. They are a bit louder than Billy's rig.

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."
