Mrs. Notes and I are doing a Praise and Worship fake e-disk for Band-in-a-Box that we'll probably release in a couple of months. We are triple checking it and a few more e-disks we've finished.

Doing that book, we discovered a Christian Music band called Gsus. I wonder if anyone other than musicians get the pun.

I don't know if the domain is available, they are on Facebook, but I don't do Facebook. They have some videos on YouTube.

I didn't look up the domain, because I didn't want someone squatting in case they decided to register it.

Use Whois for a domain and query ICANN, I doubt they are doing any squatting or allowing it. <grin>
https://lookup.icann.org/
If it doesn't exist yet (meaning available) nothing comes up .. instead of the normal 'buy it now' option when using other sources. They do not sell domains, just report if it exists, and where the nameservers (DNS) are.

Part of my job is domain purchasing and domain/dns maintenance (we own hundreds and acquire more every month for clients) .. anyway in all the years I've been doing this I have never had an available domain I looked up grabbed away, so I question how often that actually happens.

The more important issue is that a Malamute? And is he too smart for his own good?...lol

He was a Siberian Husky (though larger than most so the Malamute question has been asked before), and he took to me in an amazing way, but that's way off topic.
From the pic you can tell I was the center of his world, I could literally think stuff and he would do it, so yes he was extremely smart (or we were connected somehow)
I could tell many stories about him, he was special, thus I made him my avatar again for a while.
The new dog will show up pretty soon, she's special too

I think I will follow suit for a while Harv. I had the one before him for 13 1/2 years. I lasted 3 days before I got another dog, and he has been great since day 1.

Speaking of dogs and domains: my personal domain is gipgipgip.com, named after my first dog (wait for it) Gip. Gip was a Siberian mix. When hemangiosarcoma took her, the thought of "replacing" her felt obscene, but in time, around 6 weeks later, what let me adopt another dog was the awareness that my abstaining out of some sense of loyalty to Gip was just keeping some dog in a shelter and keeping me with a big hole in my life. So on January 7th, 2011 – which in a few hours will be 11 years – I adopted Mollie Poblano. Mollie, now 12, is a Dalmatian mix, which fascinates children, who frighten her.

gsus.com is in fact being squatted on sadly.

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!

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."
