Band In A Box

The award winning Band In A Box with it’s World wide following of fans is now released as version 12. What makes Band In A Box so successful? Simplicity!

Anyone with just a little knowledge of computers and music can create their very own songs or backing tracks. How can it be so simple? Because, Band In A Box does all the hard work.

To create a song, all you need do is type in the chord sequence on the blank page placing the chord changes on the appropriate bars (any type of chord like C, Fm7 or complex chords such as C13b9) then select a style from the hundreds provided. Press play and your backing is complete. If the style you chose does not suit your song, select another, with so many to choose from there’s almost certain to be one that fits the bill. If you wish, you can create your own style from scratch or use the “Wizard” to convert a MIDI file to a style.

Once the backing has been created you can record your own melody or counter melody parts. You can even let Band In A Box create an automatic solo from one of 100 soloists included in the program to let you hear how your backing sounds with a choice of instruments improvising the melody. Add lyrics and your song is complete. Many printing options are included such as the popular ‘leadsheet’ with notation, chords, guitar tab and lyrics to give a professional looking musical presentation of your song.

Your song can be saved in a variety of formats such as MIDI file for use in another program or keyboard, save as a .WAV audio file, or even burn the song to a CD for use on a standard CD player. With all these features and far too many more to fit in this web page, it’s no wonder Band In A Box has won such a host of international acclaim and loyal following.

The UK’s leading Music Production magazine, Sound On Sound, dubbed Band In A Box as “...one of few music products that sits in the ‘must-have’ category.” Praise indeed!

Band In A Box is available as either the PowerPAK, or the MegaPAK. The program’s the same but you can choose which extra goodies suit you best.
