Goodbye Ain't EasyThis is one I put together about three years ago. I never did get around to finishing it until last night. It just needed a final touchup and mastering. There are a few squeaks left on the acoustic lead track, but they're relatively minor. Using the multiriff feature in BIAB, I eliminated most of them. But in a couple of places, I got rid of the squeaks but couldn't get a lead melody to work the way I wanted it to, so I left the squeaks but reduced some higher frequency to somewhat minimize the squeaks. I love the slackkey guitar tracks, but they're notorious for squeaks! Hope you enjoy your listen. As always, comments are appreciated.

I made it barely audible. It's very quiet in the mix, but if I remove it, you would quickly notice it. You could say it's a quiet offering with a loud influence. A NOTE OF INTEREST FOR THOSE WHO MAY BE INTERESTED: You'll notice I used the Synthmaster Distant Galaxy track. With a little high-end boost and a lot of reverb, it creates a great outer-space sound. However, if you boost the low end and cut back a small amount on the reverb, it offers a nice, soft setting for the rest of the soundstage. That's what I did here in the chorus. FWIW.

Alan,
I think this sounds excellent. The guitars are exquisite - they fit your arrangement so well.
This track has great ambiance. The mix is pro and sounds great in my headphones.
Love everything about it from start to finish...

Hey Alan, I really enjoyed this. I can feel her sadness. Nothin' wrong with a guitar squeek here and there, it makes for a "humanized" sound. And the guitar has a slight Spanish flair which I like.
The only nit I have is the last note/chord could have rung-out for a bar or two to close the song gracefully; but that's personal preferrence. Great job --Steve

Great stuff Alan, very soothing track - and once again - superbly mixed. Personally, I liked the squeaks. First of all they're not all that easily noticed, but they do add a bit of realism to the sound, in my opinion anyway.

Hi Alan,
Yes it's a bit sad, but lovely music.. And a squeak now and then isn't annoying, it sounds quite natural. It's a nice listen.

Bob Hi Bob, Thanks a bunch. The biggest accomplishment (from my POV) was getting three acoustic guitars that worked well together - not stepping on one another - and each having differing but compatible tonal qualities. I appreciate those kind words. Alan

The fact you commented that you can "fell her sadness" put a smile on my face. I think it's the goal of most music creators that their music instills an emotion for the listener. Thank you for verifying I did that with this piece. Many thanks for the kind words! Alan

Brad Hello Brad ... It's always nice to hear from you. I agree that a few minor squeaks here and there add to a live nuance of the performance. Thank you for your comment on the mix. I don't use a DAW - just Audacity, if you care to call that a DAW. I think it's going in that direction, but still doesn't have all the capabilities to call it DAW - but it's getting close. Again, thank you very much! Alan

fj Hi Floyd, I'm never sure how to respond to your always kind and encouraging words. I hope a sincere and heart-felt thank you are sufficient. Your encouraging comments are always an inspiration for my musical journey. I'm going to look at Spotify and a couple other major service. Thanks for the boost in that direction! I'm delighted you enjoy my work. Thanks! Alan

FWIW? I love to hear the producers story of how things are made. Thank you, Alan.
Not only the strings, but everyone in your group lays a bed of flowers for the guitar to swoon over. A what a wonderful swoon it is. Good write. So glad you finally finished it. Listened a couple times on different systems and the high quality shines in each. The mood is catures so well.

Hi, Alan. Lovely track. I'm not sure which guitar parts you were unhappy with, because I couldn't hear any issues. As you said, subtle stuff in the background, but it works. There's an option in BiaB to force notes to be "right" under Track Settings | Fix "Sour Notes . That way, you could render out a "corrected" version of the track, and manually replace the notes in the original track. There's also an option to "Change Pitch" within Audacity. So you can select the portion of the waveform that you want to modify, and only adjust that. That's something I'd do in my DAW occasionally when BiaB has a phrase I really like, but it doesn't fit the cadence I want. Nice work!

Listened a couple times on different systems and the high quality shines in each. The mood is catures so well. Hi Marty, You are welcome! I'm delighted this sits well in your ears. If I "discover" something useful that might not be obvious at first sight, I'm more than happy to pass it on. Sometimes the simplest things aren't equally obvious. It felt like it was time to resurrect it. I'm starting to explore a redo of the first song I ever wrote - music and lyric - in 1978! I was almost young back then. I was playing in a band 18 - 24 shows per month. Again, I always appreciate your kind support. Wishing you the very best, Alan

HI David, I look forward to your comments as I almost always learn something or have something to ponder that will probably be helpful. Many thanks for all that. There weren't any sour notes - just not the sound/inflection I was looking for. I'll check out that "Change Pitch" option in Audacity. Audacity is my goto software for "massaging" my songs. Thank you! Hope you & your family have pretty much recovered from all those nasty bugs. Alan

Melon cauli flowering instrumental. Lovely to sit back with headphones on and fruitfully veg-out to.
Some favourite Waoist Adages: #1: Play on the Way. #17: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you. #69: Bring consciousness to it. #74: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made. #105: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

All the instrumentation, particularly the guitars, and the mix sound just right to be---just like baby bear porridge. Great title that accurately reflects the mood of your composition.

Man, are you ever prolific of late! Another BiaB masterpiece that is very cinematic in nature. It simply makes the listener want to contemplate ... and regarding what they can connect their own dots. Squeaks just mean new strings to us. Great mix with a fine soundstage on our monitors. Well done! J&B

Alan, I almost missed this one but I'm glad that I got a chance to listen. Outstanding work. A mellow masterpiece. Great use of those RTs. Great blend.

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."
