Hi my biab's friends, Two years ago, I composed Turn turn the world with the following realtracks: String Quarted NA 2335 Rhythmic PopHall Ev 085 Baustin 6 Render RealTrack Guitar 1- Riff 2 2650 Guitar Electric Background DreamyPopBalladFillsBrent Ev 085 At the time, I found this composition a bit bland and not to post it on this forum. In the last few days I decided to color it with different vst woodwind instruments and choirs and review the mix with ozone9. Finalized, I can finally offer it to you. If you have the time or the desire, all your comments are welcome. Thanks in advance. Link to my composition: https://soundcloud.com/user-318966631/turn-turn-the-worldLink to my other compositions: https://soundcloud.com/user-318966631
Kindly regards

I thought this was great! Love the way you used those bells - very catchy beginning, and once caught, I remained that way throughout the melody. I really liked the way you built the melody sound by sound. The ending was nice too. They started a commercial right after the conclusion of your piece, so they may have cut a bit of the sound off, but it did sound as though it had suddenly stopped ringing at the very end, which was probably something you hadn't intended. Very nice music.

Hi Brad,
I'm glad that you like this instrumental melody. Thank you very much for your encouragement which really makes me happy. Especially since I am aware that my style is a bit atypical on this forum.

You had me with the bells at the beginning...and you can never go wrong with Dreamy Brent...very nice arrangement and melodic movement...the choir or whatever it was ion the background gave it a lovely feel and peaceful vibe...I really enjoyed this!

Great intro with the bells, that is so important to get the listener's attention right away. And you kept the interest nicely, which can be hard to achieve with an instrumental. Terrific work!

Derochette,
Those bells are outstanding—so clear in the mix, giving a lot of depth and atmosphere. Really pretty composition—engaging, and crystal in the production. Outstanding work!
All my best,
Deej

The unexpected opening set the tone (no pun intended) for what turned out to be a very emotive piece. The BIAB tracks provided a most suitable fabric on which to embroider and interweave the various VSTs. Masterful music-making.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

If this was bland before, it's certainly not now. The instrumentation and arrangement kept me engaged through the whole song. Nice!

Derochette,
Beautiful instrumental. Great opening. I like how the composition progresses. Excellent use of synths. One minor thing, and that is probably a matter of taste, I think that drums are a little "thin" compared to the rest of the instruments. This is a random idea, but have you thought about using simpler percussion on this, such as tambourine? In any case, this is a good tune. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

This is lovely.
Your selection of tracks, the arrangement and the mix are outstanding.
It has a very dreamy cinematic feel -- would make a great film track.
We’re glad you revived this instrumental!

Derochette,
Great work. Love the strings and how you delayed the persussion coming in.
The chorus gives a "Middle Earth" feel.
Great job.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Hi Ghostgum,
Biab's realtracks are very well done. They are a precious tool in the realization of a composition and they adapt well to the sequence of chords that one chooses. Thank you for your nice comment which made me happy.

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."
