I do hope it's OK to post this here. Note to moderator, if this post is out of line, please feel free to delete it and e-mail me so I know not to post articles of this nature anymore.
But since a number of people with arranger keyboards also use Band-in-a-Box, I guessed the following post would be of interest to some (even though it of a self-serving commercial nature).
Announcing -- new Band-in-a-Box FUN-ware!!!
(1.) One, GREAT, NEW Style Disk
plus a FREE MIDI intro/ending disk *
---
(2.) One NEW Fake Disk
---
(3.) One NEW Jim Wedd Disk

(4.) updates to a couple of your old favorites.
------------------------------------------------------
(1.) Norton Music's User Style Disk #18 for Band-in-a-BoxEver since I released disks #4 and #5 for Band-in-a-Box, (styles inspired by the Korg i3 keyboard), people have been asking me to write more styles inspired by those great auto-arrangement keyboards. By far the keyboard requested most often is the Korg PA80. -- Put the styles from a $4,300.00 Korg PA80 in your Box for around 30 bucks!
* Purchase Style Disk #18 and get a FREE intro/ending disk. Over 50 fantastic MIDI file intros and endings. You can export your BiaB file as a MIDI file, import it into a sequencer, and add these fantastic intros and endings. Whether you use it on BiaB files or your own MIDI sequences, you get Norton Music's Intro/Ending disk #5 FREE. This offer is limited, so order today.
Go to
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style18.html for details and to listen to mp3 demo files for both Style Disk 18 and the FREE intro/ending disk.
These are ALL MIDI styles, (but if you prefer, you can use RealDrums with them).
