A cool dirty ditty at dat. That sax is fun, but your guitar really steals the show. Wonderful taste and tone. I wouldn't have thought of strings for this one, but they sound perfect. The changes really add a special touch.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Smooth and cool indeed. Perfect mix to support the vibe.

Great guitar and we are always down with an expressive sax sound like this.

Sophisticated and classy and ultimately most engaging.

Nice!

PS How about an album release of Little Dittys?

You are multi-talented, as both a musician and a composer. Production and song is seamless.

It's great to hear you play guitar anytime.
The "sax" is cool but I'd have been happier to hear you play those lines on guitar as well.
Smooth and yes, the strings could do with a slight bump.


Cheers

Mario,

This is definitely a chillin' at the end of the day tune! Love those strings coming during the guitar solo, which is also great! Always love your work because there's a feel-good laid-back vibe to all of it!

Thanks, Torrey

Very nice Mario. Great piece, I'm with Dave I'd like that guitar of yours to be just a little higher in the mix - it was so well done. It had me picturing myself with my boots off near the fireplace on a cold evening with my wife. Great job Mario.

Mario,

Very Cool!
Recreating saxophones and guitars in MIDI must be very difficult, but you've done it so well.
The overall sound is what you intended.
The saxophone and guitar tones are great.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Looks like I'm super-late to this party!

Exactly what the description said it was.

Nice and easy listening. Sorry to hear about your wind controller. I just had to swap out my USB EWI with the spare because it wasn't playing well with The Trumpet. I try to keep my eyes on Craigslist throughout the year just in case a cheap EWI shows up.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

I thought I replied after an earlier listen but I'm glad I returned for another enjoyable listen. This is so refreshing and relaxing. I'll probably be back to hear it again soon. Enjoyed the song from start to finish.

Thanx Brad, especially the guitar comments. You do know that you told a guitarist to get louder shocked

Thanx for these nice comments.

Actually the guitar is me playing a real guitar. The sax was MIDI.

Thanx Dave. I'm ticked off at Akai because they no longer support the USB EWI. Patchman https://patchmanmusic.com/repairs.html will repair them but that may cost more than the EWI. Hopefully a cheap one will not be one that is getting ready to die as quickly as mine did. Good luck.

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!

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.
