Salve a tutti,
sono nuovo del forum ed avrei bisogno del vostro aiuto per capire se BaB è lo strumento che può fare al caso mio (è una settimana che entro nella pagina degli ordini, ma poi non vado avanti…) per fare il mio "studio di composizione e registrazione" prettamente ad uso casalingo.
Premetto che il livello che mi serve è assolutamente amatoriale e che a livello di software, MIDI, etc.. non ho conoscenze se non superficiali.

Posseggo attualmente le seguenti apparecchiature :
- tastiera GEM WK4 (1996)
- Sintetizzatore Kawai (circa del 1990)
- pianoforte Roland RP201
- mixer collegato ad un impianto casalingo + computer
- computer "vecchio" (2002) con scheda sonora Creative Labs Audigy 2

Cosa vorrei fare:
1) comporre (parola grossissima per me!!!!) brani musicali avendo magari a
disposizione anche alcuni arrangiamenti (come ci sono sulla tastiera per
intenderci) “globali” oppure divisi per strumenti
2) registrare sul pc in modo "live" tipo pianoforte e voce, oppure base
musicale, voce ed altro strumento, su tracce indipendenti per fare le varie
regolazioni
3) notazione musicale in "diretta" suonando con strumento via MIDI
4) notazione musicale "manuale" tipo con "mouse" (eventualmente per copiare
partiture e farle suonare)

Mi sembra di aver capito che per i punti 1 e 2 non ci sono problemi, ma i punti 3 e 4?
BaB leggo che è dotato si sequencer “realband”, questo vuol dire che potrei fare a meno di un prodotto tipo cubase)?
Vi ringrazio fin da ora per l’aiuto.

Saluti a tutti

Ciao Simcat

come già sottolinei tu stesso nessun problema per il punto 1, Band-in-a-Box è l'ideale; qualche perplessità permettimela sul punto 2,
In risposta a:

voce ed altro strumento, su tracce indipendenti


il software non è multitraccia nella sezione Audio, può salvare il proprio arrangiamento su tracce audio separate, ma per registrare la tua esecuzione live in audio all'interno del programma hai a disposizione un'unica traccia stereo.
Punto 3: nessun problema, fattibilissimo.
Punto 4: teoricamente fattibile ma . . . quando lo fai prima butta l'orologio e avvisa i parenti che per un po' di tempo non avranno tue notizie! Scherzi a parte, per questo scopo ci sono alternative più pratiche, ad esempio con RealBand o altri software dedicati. RealBand in particolare ti permetterebbe di fare a meno di Cubase, e non è poco, è un software che ha bisogno ancora di qualche limatina ma promette molto bene.

Ciao Sergio

Finalmente ho acquistato BaB!
L'ho scaricato via internet e stasera provo ad installarlo!
Mi darò un po' di tempo per vedere se almeno riesco a fare qualcosa da solo, ma sicuramente, vista la mia "pochezza" con questi programmi, MIDI, etc... chiederò il vostro aiuto!!

Saluti a tutti

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.

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."
