2013 User Showcase Awards.... Congratulations to....
You may have won a free Band-in-a-Box 2014 Everything Pak ..... check here
Over the past year (2013), we’ve had over 900 new original compositions posted to the User Showcase. Wow! Now over 2,100 songs in the Showcase! Many thanks to all that have contributed.
We’d like to thank and recognize these amazing contributions that people have made!
So we announce the User Showcase Awards...to the top 15 contributors of 2013 – a free Band-in-a-Box 2014 Everything Pak for Windows (including the 12 PAK bonus)
We’ve reviewed the contributions from Jan 1 to Dec 1, 2013, and have based the results on a combination of the following criteria:
- great compositions/arrangements/productions - use lots of BB or RealBand (RealTracks or MIDI) - most contributions - other contribution to the forum (songwriting tips etc.) - haven't won before (not an absolute requirement) - haven't already got a free version from beta testing etc.
And the winners (alphabetical order) are:
90 dB aleck rand boehm cubanpete dani48 Digital Angel Don Gaynor F.M.M floyd jane gruverider Guitarhacker Janice & Bud JosieC Steve Young tommyad
If your name is on the list.... congratulations! You have won a free Band-in-a-Box 2014 Everything Pak Hard Drive (including free shipping of course)
To collect your award, please contact marketing@pgmusic.com (by Jan. 31, 2014) (attn: Cat Cantwell), and provide details of where you want it to be sent. (don't forget to let her know your Forum name)
If you've already purchased 2014, we will refund your purchase price. If you already have BB 2014 via another means (beta testing etc.), then you can designate "someone else" to receive it (just send that info privately in your email).
If you're a Mac user, you can either get 2013 Ev. Pak or request a raincheck for the 2014 Mac Everything Pak when it comes out.
Once again, thanks to all the creative people who create, produce and share these wonderful songs!

Hi, Peter and all ye other friends out there around the world !:)) It really feels like BIAB makes all of us closer ! I want to thank Peter for this more than generous present and all ye other friends that have inspired me to write and thus to keep my head over the water ! I am most serious when I say that BIAB has saved me from the abyss I was on my way into after my dear wife´s death ! BIAB has helped me rediscover music again and thru that it has played a central part in my recovery ! Thru BIAB and thru all you fantastic friends I have got on this site I managed to get back my lust for life again ! I am forever indebted to you all !Thank you so much !:))
Cheers Dani

Dani,
No one deserves it more than you. You transformed that destructive energy into a creative force, and you are an example for all of us.

Couldn't happen to a nicer group of people... there is no better user community and no better developer support anywhere.
Peter, when you get a chance, it'd be nice to know which specific compositions tickled PG's fancy. I know the award is based on several other criteria, and there are TONS of community submitted pieces in the Showcase forum - y'all have heard them all - in your mind which have stretched the PG envelope the most?
For this years winners - WELL DONE (and thank you).

Peter,
This is the best Christmas gift I could have received! Thank you for your generosity and for creating the greatest songwriting tool ever. All the best to you and your family, and your extended PG family - the finest group of folks I've encountered in this business. Congrats to all the other winners - now let's get busy writing and recording!
Regards,
Bob

Peter and the folks at PG Music... it's an honor to be a part of this group of extremely talented folks.....
Thank you for all you do behind the scenes to make this software the absolutely most amazing software ever for the musicians like me and many others who can not play all the instruments we need to complete our musical projects.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
