Since everyone seems to be enjoying my Band-in-a-Box quiz, I thought I would post the other quiz I made over the weekend. Take this two minute fun quiz to find out if you are a noodler, an experimentalist, a copycat or a performer. https://www.opinionstage.com/joanne-cooper/what-type-of-guitar-player-are-you-

That was a fun test with some very tricky questions.
According to the test I am a performer!
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.

Definitely performer.
But I knew that before I took the quiz (enjoyed it anyway).
Guitar is my 7th instrument, sax is my primary instrument and drums were my first instrument.
I'm decent at the guitar, but starting later in life, I don't think I'm ever going to be as good as Jeff Beck or probably even dozens of players on this forum, but I can hold my own with the best on sax/wind synthesizer.
I am lucky to be able to gig for a living.

I was looking for an option for "awful..weak..used to be good". Something along those lines...
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

I look at things like that as nothing more than silliness. Those options that for some reason included a Bob Dylan song were ridiculous. If someone says "Hey don't you play guitar" to me at a party or campfire I just say "I used to."

I ended up as Copycat .. I doubt most people who have any experience working with me would agree, so I have that going for me, which is nice Still fun to take the quiz /maybe it'll sink in later and I'll learn something about myself (shrug)
Make your sound your own!
.. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I use to play guitar...lets see..about 11:00 last night. Quit playing for a whole day.
Actually I got up at the crack of noon and played piano today. I have a stuffed rabbet I like to play and sing for. Bunny always thinks I sing very well. I been thinking about getting Bunny a hearing aid.
Anyone who will wear a pink suit in public has to be a performer...lol
Fun test!

That was fun in a perverse way, since I don’t play guitar and only spent a few hours trying with my Mel Bay book at age 10.
I’m rated a Copycat.
That’s truly funny, because as a jazz composer and soloist, I’m the opposite. I’ve never even used the Soloist function in BIAB - people hire me for that. But if someone needed me to play guitar (poor them!) then I would absolutely be a Copycat.

I was unable to answer most of the questions because those provided didn't apply. i picked at random and then, I think, I was asked for my email address so opted out. Seriously, most of the answers did not apply to me...that must mean I'm not a guitar player - most folk would agree.
Cheers

When you are prompted for an email, visit 10 Minute Email and it will give you an email that exists long enough (10 minutes) for a site to send you "that" email asking you to confirm your email address and then goes poof. Thus you don't have to get annoying "list" emails.

Thanx Eddie. This will come in very handy!

Hi guys I am certainly learning a lot about making a quiz . Thanks to all for the input. I am working on a "music trivia" one that will involve a "prize". I think I will post it here so you guys can rip it apart before posting it anywhere else. The form to collect email addresses from this quiz now says: "Submit your email if you would like to receive emails on how you can improve your guitar playing on Playiit.com

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."
Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
