That's very cool! I barely know what TikTok is...lol
I had to look twice to be sure I spelled it correctly.

As inflation continues to rise and things get more expensive I think more BIAB songs will become more
commercially viable.

We have gone from high-end stereos to listening to MP3 on cell phones.

For the foreseeable future, there will be multi-million dollar studios making recordings but the sonic gap is closing.

In many ways, we have a more inclusive music world today.

Well, FWIW, our productions including all our licensed songs are created with high res wav tracks and bounced to same. Whatever platforms do with them is out of my control. However, we like the ability to have albums available world wide on all the major streaming services and to make them available for licensing on Songtradr. It’s not the relatively small income but rather the notion that our music is appreciated beyond the family friend circle. And it takes about 10 minutes to upload a new song to ST. Beyond that we do zero promotional activities. Just create about one song a month and spend the vast majority of our time mountain biking, hiking and of late creating music videos. 22 years into retirement and that is enough for me.

Hi Bud,

I played a couple of your songs from Soundcloud through the PA at a party. Everyone liked them. Perhaps they did not understand all the words. In general, Spanish is the first language here. How it was made is not known or cared about by the people who get to listen.

The system may not have the very highest sound quality possible. It is super convenient. Connect to the system from my cell phone wirelessly. Play anything that exists on the internet.

The world is becoming more "digital" by the minute. You and your wife are out in nature on your bikes. So are Eva and I. That is becoming the exception rather than the rule. Most people are experiencing their life vicariously through TV or computers.

We are fortunate to have a program like BIAB which gives untold numbers of people the ability to express themselves musically.

Certainly, there are many people who would not feel comfortable in a professional studio even if it were free. BIAB provides the ability to record with no pressure of anyone else being involved.

Music is a big world that is significantly less exclusive than it has been in the past.

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."
