I have tried something new. I have normally written slower songs but this time I wanted to write something a little faster.

The name of the song is, "Jesus, He is Enough" - - -> http://www.box.net/shared/fnzecgz2ez

I hope you like it. I used all Real Tracks: (Except for the train whistle. It took a while to find one in the correct key)

Bass 538, Acoustic, Pop Sw 190 Byron House
Mandolin 611, Rhythm Fast Chop Sw 190 Jack Pearson
Guitar 374, Acoustic, Strumming Hank Sw 190 Jason Roller
Guitar 376, Fingerpicking Hank Sw 190 Jason Roller
Guitar 946, Electric, Rhythm MemphisCleanShort Sw 190 Jason Roller
RealDrums, NashvilleBrushesClassicShuffle Sw 8 Brian Fullen

Those boys can really play!

The vocals are: my daughter Lauren, my music minister Paul & me.

Thanks for listening,
Steve

Hey Steve,
I really liked the song. Great vocals and excellent writing. The song had nice flow and had my foot tapping! Good work.

Hey Steve,
Took me right back to the old camp meeting dinner on the ground days of my childhood. You nailed it. Well done.

Bob, Danny, Marty & Josie,

Thanks for such great comments. I have never written anything in this style before so I really got out of my box on this one. It is really fun singing this style of music.

Hi Steve,

Wow!!! This is a brilliant song. You really have developed expertise in writing, performing and mixing. There's absolutely nothing that I'd change. Like Marty, my foot just wouldn't stop tapping.

All the best,
Noel

Bob said it - you've got the Statler Brothers sound.

I love the enthusiasm of the singing, and the "bass" line "He is enough" got me laughing each time, because the singer sounds like he's having a great time.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Noel, Greg & Dcuny, thank you guys for listening and for the nice comments. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Paul did the bass line "He is enough". He did not like it and wanted to redo it but I thought it was alright. We may redo it later.

Hi Steve,

You just found a "new" genre to add to your song list.
Isn't the software just great that it lets you try out all sorts of new genre styles.

You did a very good job with this song.
Kudos to all three of you, your daughter Lauren, your music minister Paul and yourself.

Best regards
Michee

I agree with Marty

I will add that I had a big smile on my face during the entire song.

EXCELLENT!


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Michee, I love the peppiness and harmonies of the Bluegrass genre. However, with my limited instrumental abilities I would have never attempted it. BIAB RealTracks are absolutely amazing! I will relay your comments to the rest of the trio.

Mario, I am very pleased it put a smile on your face. I was hoping that everyone would enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoy singing it.

Thank you,
Steve

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."
