This is why I love my BiaB!! Cover of lovely Justin Hayward song from the album The View From The Hill c1995/6. Delightful melody - to me anyway. At five minutes long it'll need your full attention span. Lol. It's based around JH's 1998 California tour 'Live' performance. I got serious 'earworm' hearing it 20 years ago and recently saw the old YT video - and off I went - again. Started from scratch with a BLANK 44 EVEN8 'style' and populated it thus - Style is BLANK.STY (Blank 4/4 Even 8th Utility Style) RealTracks in song: 700:Bass, Electric, PopHalfNotesPush Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 1175:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm PopCalypso Ev 100-HELD RealTracks in song: 1543:Synth Pad, PopBelieve Ev16 065 RealTracks in song: 1175:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm PopCalypso Ev 100 Acoustic infills - my Yamaha APX3. Main guitar - Stratocaster Drums - midi loop. Cymbal roll - free DL from Internet) SGU here, if anyone is interested - https://app.box.com/s/mtdzqnctxjrx93aii4q2ct8jwdr42azgAside - for me, part of the Fun is 'auditioning' the many wonderful RTs and RDs to see who's interested in playing in my Band. Lol. Can't put it on our Showcase so I've knocked up a video of stills to go with it and put it on YT - YT - https://youtu.be/RV-9MwX6byMAudio only in Box - https://app.box.com/s/s3jck0j6fvw1v3i0ymqprn5tqqryh3y9Audio only in Soundcloud - https://soundcloud.com/sixchannel/broken-dreams-final-mix-mastered?si=610e391a570e4e56bfcc4581a02c06c6&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharingBests Ian Original performance by JH here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3fNQd7FUWQ

Wonderfully done Ian!
This cover is certainly an earworm too.
You play the guitar very well.
BTW, did you put an "s" behind Dream on purpose?
And you've collected a lot of broken hearts for the video! Nice.

Hi there you two. I'm glad you liked this. The 's' was, of course, a deliberate mistake.  Well spotted and now corrected. Bests Ian

Sensational mix, really clear balance with the lead right out front, but not in the way.
The guitars complement each other so nicely.
Another class performance!

Hi Jim - thank you for listening. Glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Trev - getting a mix right is always tough when deaf in one ear. Glad it worked out OK.
Hi Keith - thanks for your kind comment. My son in Penrith NSW tells me it very hot there.

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!

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."
