Tip:

1. Create a directory called "Songs" in your main bb folder.

2. Put these files in there & organize to your liking.

3. Select File "Open" on top in your main window & select anyone of your song files.

4. Viola, play & sing along to your hearts content. All the hard work has been done for you.

5. Make any changes you want as save as a new song file.

There are thousands more style demos. However, what follows now are backtracks made by ordinary users - freely available for public use. This will demonstrate what can be created by yourself at home, in your living room with BiaB alone:

Hi Henni

All good stuff. Life got in the way, but I will get back to you soon.

Also, as you use BiaB more, everything becomes easier. The full production of my versions of Tears in Heaven by Henni & Hey Jude by Henni took less than a half day each to create. I suspect that soon I would be able to create a FULL song with all its parts in a few hours only.

Thus it will not take all that long to create a full repertoire with all the songs for your live performances. Remember that if you make a backtrack only you do not even need to bother with fine tuning a midi style which takes up most of the work. Also - a lot of backtracks have already been created for you (see all my links to this). So all you have to do is to taylor it slightly for your specific renderings (should you even want to do this).

Should you bother at all to re-master your creations:

Imagine

1976 Alan Jackson

Speed Of The Sound Of Lonliness

Pride and Joy

you will really end up by leaving a good impression.

BiaB and the TyRUS midi output module makes for a GREAT!!! combination.

This is truly AMAZING!!! Only discovered this today:

I've been using BIAB since its early DOS days and bought every version since then. I use it for songwriting. I also collected all the TOTL arrangers with the intention to use them for songwriting, but have never found them as productive as BIAB for songwriting. The Korg PA5x, with its dual players and chord sequence function, is the first arranger that lets me work like I do in BIAB. Play in the chords into a PA5x chord sequence (vs typing them in in BIAB), try different styles to find the right one, mix and match parts of styles using the dual players (as shown in the Qui Robinez video), and then generate the tracks in the PA5X. I can do the same thing on BIAB using its real audio tracks and have the best of BIAB audio and Korg midi to mix and match in my DAW. I'm just getting started with the PA5x, but BIAB and PA5x make a great combination.

Hi Ric4001,

Interesting indeed - I never knew the Korg could do that. I am really happy for your killer combination. You are welcome to post links of snippets/full versions of your creations over here should you wish.

Keep well my friend,

Henni
