October 31, 2014 User Showcase Song - The Caddy Song

So, I really haven't been writing much recently... busy with other projects and I just needed to write something different.

So I messed around with some things and this kinda came together. The song is about a car..... or, on second thought..... is it about a car? You decide.

October 28, 2014 Video - UserTracks Tutorial

A few years ago, PG Music introduced RealTracks - audio tracks that replace the MIDI track for that instrument, and can be controlled just like the MIDI instrument (volume changes, muting etc.). Now with Band-in-a-Box 2014 you have the ability to create your own RealTracks!

To make your own RealTracks, simply record tracks in any DAW, name your UserTracks, and add them to the UserTracks folder in Band-in-a-Box. They are now ready to use, the same as you use other RealTracks! Watch the YouTube Video: UserTracks Tutorial to learn more!

October 28, 2014 User Showcase Song - Dream That's Gone

I wrote this song when I was 19. It was one of the first songs I wrote when I started playing guitar. Not exactly top notch songwriting in those days, but with Band in a Box in the game and Anne-Marie on backing vocals I can now finally get away with it :-) (almost).

October 23, 2014 User Showcase Song - Come Out and See

This song is about the 70s and what is left of the thing called 'free love'. A big thing those days. But what did it bring exactly, how did it end for some people...

Being a Cat Stevens fan all my life, I wanted to create a song in his typical musical style. This is sort of a tribute to him.
The initial meaning was to use all kinds of phrases of his most famous songs. I finally decided not to do this, but create a lyric from scratch on my own.
Anne-Marie did the background vocals and created the 'retro' video.

I haven't been around for a while, but songwriting and recording are making one of their periodic comebacks (finally!).

Maybe I should have waited until Thursday to post, but this song is old AND new. A bit of mash-up with the resonator guitar.

October 02, 2014 Throwback Thursday! Band-in-a-Box 2004!

Another glimpse into the past... it's hard to believe 10 years has come and gone since Band-in-a-Box 2004 for Windows was released! Here's just a few of the New Features from Version 2004:

✔All New 32-bit Program Engine. Program operations are much faster, including up to 3 times faster notation redraws, song and soloing generation. Playback timing is improved and rock-solid with all versions of Windows, including the newest XP and Media Center operating systems.

✔ DirectX Instrument Synthesizer (DXi plug-in) Support. Software synthesizers allow Band-in-a-Box to play high-quality sounds directly through your computer sound card, without requiring any external MIDI hardware. Connecting Band-in-a-Box to the software synth as a plug-in provides several advantages over the previous method of connecting as a MIDI driver. The plug-in allows Band-in-a-Box to merge/synch in any existing audio file (vocals, etc.) with the synth output. You can also directly render your performance to a .WAV file using the DXi plug-in.

✔ Amazing Audio Vocal Harmony routines! You can apply a harmony to the audio part, allowing you to automatically create up to 4-part vocal harmonies from your singing. Band-in-a-Box generates the harmonies using the world-leading TC-Helicon Vocal Technologies engine.

✔Repeats, first and second endings, DS/DC al Coda symbols and more!

Summary of Changes for Version 2014 Build 386 (Sept 30, 2014):

-Fixed: RealDrums dialog was showing an error message in build 385.
-Improved: Big Piano Window is now size-able. Drag the window to the height, width that you want. This can be useful, for example, when recording a YouTube video, match the size to the size of the piano to a video of a real piano, so that you set the same # of octaves to display - then match the width. There are also preset buttons for 40,40,75,100% of piano size in the big piano options dialog.
-Updated: RealTracks artist bio information updated (to fix outdated url's etc).
-Fixed: (Japanese and Chinese version only). Entry of title was sometimes opening a text entry IME dialog.
