Hi Dan ...

It's always a pleasure to hear from you. We appreciate your support very, very much. And thanks for the info on SpectraLayers. I'll get back to you this weekend.

Again, many thanks!

Hi Scott ...

Thank you for those nice comments! We both appreciate it! Di was in her early 60s when we recorded this. We'll both be 77 pretty soon. Man, that's a lot of pages to flip on the calender!

Pulling vocals out of existing tracks is worth looking into. Other tracks will "damage" the vocals, depending on how similar the are to vocals, or how they mask the vocals. But since this often happens in places the mix will cover (for example, on drum beats), this can be solved.

So... yes, I'd like to hear more, even if you don't apply snazzy technology on top of it. laugh



Hi David ...

Indeed, she is an easy listen! And yeah, I'm aware of what it says. I just wish PG Music would make a specific statement regarding the necessity of a BIAB feature needed to post - as in, "Yes, you must have an element of BIAB in the song", or "No it's not necessary but we certainly encourage it."

You are correct in your interpretation, as I see it. But I tend to want a BIAB connection.

Anyway, I'll post one of these older ones as I have time to get to them.

And thanks again for the nice comments!

Alan

Marty ...

So great to hear from you! And thank you so much! Her vibrato and extensive vocal range seem to come with little to no extra effort on her part. She just opens her mouth and there it is.

We always appreciate your input and comments.

Alan

What a treat! Di’s lovely vocals always sound effortless.

She is very expressive and her use of dynamics is ace. And yeah, those high falsetto notes are perfect!

The lyric also seems to be a “true life” one for sure.

We look forward to more of these gems!

J&B

PS. Love the cover art too.

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.

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."
