Title: Rose Colored Glasses https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino/rose-colored-glasses?si=213e2e0caf6f48f1a8a01adb1fbf55b2&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharingA song about the good old days: (were they really as good as I remember). DAW: Logic Pro X with various Isotope Plug ins. Mastered with Ozone. The jumping off point for this song was Malibu.STY – Summer Pop Rock – Ev.8ths. For the Bass I started with BIB Syn Bass: Instrument Moog Bass exported as midi and imported into Logic pro x and played using the Logic Pro X stock pulse bass instrument. For one of the piano tracks I started with BIB ElecPiano, Type MT, Electric Piano#2 and exported as midi and imported into Logic Pro X. I then played using EZ Keys 2 MK1 piano as an AU instrument. Fiddle is a BIB real track: 1604: Fiddle, Background Pop 16ths EV 110 The other piano track was created using EZ keys 2 plate with the EZ keys Grand Piano. Drums: EZ drummer 3: exported the BIB bass as a midi file and imported it into EZ drummer 3 bandmate to establish the timing and then subsequently manipulated the groves in EZ drummer 3. Guitars: Created using Native instruments sunburst guitar midi tracks vocals: myself using Autotune Pro, Autotune Vocal Compressor and Autotune Vocal EQ.

Joe,
That's a good song. You sing it very well - some great harmony as well.
I enjoyed it.

Cool lyrics in a good song, Joe. Man, very relatable. Good harmony. Yep, times are changing. Excellent comparisons of how they have.

Joe, that was freaking hilarious! Locking car doors, Netflix, Prime, What the hell are you spying on me  Seriously this is one fantastic song. Great vocal and outstanding lyrics. Super choice of instruments. Great mix. Loved it. PS - It is called the good old days because my back didn't hurt and I was younger then.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Joe,
I got a chuckle or 2 in this one! The lyrics are spot on for some of us! The 50's-60's chord progression suits this well! Great job producing this!
Thanks, TB

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."
