Well...me and the kids (Hayden and Natalie) are still at it...I'm happy to announce that they have given their virtual hearts to Jesus and decided to become gospel singers...so Hayden picked out a song I wrote forty-some years ago to share and the trio of Hayden and Natalie and Hayden (I'm going to hire a third member as soon as I can afford them...maybe Kevin...I like Kevin).
Anyway a simple song, a simple message and a complicated recording session has produced this...I hope you all like it...Dan

Ron...it's really kind of fun and I love to hear other voices (other than mine) sing the songs even if they aren't actual people...but I do get my way (a producer's dream come true)...thanks...Dan

Simple but effective arrangement that works very well.
Good use of the kids, I especially love these harmonies.
Even if you don't sing, the vocal arrangement says "Dan Simmons".
You can't hide it smile

Wow, Dan. Everyone worries that synth will take over, but you have converted them. AND you have a great trio to help you spread the word. Nice. Man, you are already so good at working them into a wonderful gospel group. Love the song, and your knowledge and use of harmony. Superb.


Enjoy whatever happens!

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."
