This song had a really nice, smooth, easy-listen feel to it! I really like what you achieved with this one, and the harmonica in particular added a nice extra level of character to it. Thanks for sharing!


Cheers,

Thanks, Ember. I have to say that the style (Strongr.STY) provided such a well-balanced and interesting mix of backing instruments that writing the melody was almost effortless.

Since I started using BIAB my output in the last three years has exceeded that of the previous thirty. I find the real tracks to be truly inspirational. My thanks to all you hardworking and very creative folks at PG Music.

Ghostgum,

the first song I've been listening to this morning - sounds like the start into a beautiful day. Very nice.

Good groove, Ghostgum. Excellent work with the harmonica and piano interaction, and they all take side-stage to that guitar. Well played.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Ghostgum51,

Nice intro with The harmonica which is really highlighted and has all its charm. The guitar solo is well thought out. It is a pleasant composition. I appreciated.

Pretty song and nicely played on the guitar. I liked the choice of RT's that went with the song.

Nice.

What a wonderful emotive melody.

We felt as though we were watching the flow of a lovely mountain creek.

Your playing (and tone) is very nice as is the band choice and the mix.

Enjoyable indeed,

J&B

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."
