Put A Better Band In Your Box With Norton Music's User Style Disk #3 For Band-in-a-Box

An all-request disk! What kind of styles are on this all new disk? The most requested styles from the owners of Disk #1 and #2, in about the same ratio as the requests. Many of them are versatile, cross-over styles that would work well for more than one type of music. Let me elaborate; the lines between the rhythms of different kinds of popular music are getting fuzzy - I hear C&W songs that have a very similar rhythm to a Rock song I once played, which had a rhythm taken verbatim from a R&B song, which had its roots in Gospel - Also, Jazz, Fusion, Latin, Rock, Disco and Dance music share many common rhythms. Disk #3 contains the following styles (note: most of the styles are good for more than one type of music, but I had to give them a title.): Norton Music's User Style Disk #3 is optimized for Version 6.0 or higher of Band-In-A-Box, but it also works on Version 5 of band-in-a-box at about 90% of the capacity that it does on Version 6. Norton Music Style Disks have been recommended in Keyboard Magazine, Electronic Musician Magazine, The Micro Computer Journal, Music & Computers Magazine, Jazz Times Magazine, on the internet , the McGraw-Hill textbook, Multimedia Literacy by Dr. Fred T. Hoffstetter, and by word of mouth in over 75 different countries by musicians like you. The best way to describe what is on this disk is to list the styles and post the demo songs. So here we go: Click the Demo link to listen to the MP3 demo. Note: The audio MP3 files were recorded using Band-in-a-Box and the Edirol VSC3 Virtual Sound Canvas synthesizer. They were encoded at a low bit-rate and in mono so they will download fast, even for those with a dial-up connection. The low bit-rate results in low fidelity, but you will still be able to hear all the parts, and you won't have to wait long for the music to start. In most cases the demo plays only a few bars of the A section, a few bars of the B section, and the ending. In other words, what you hear is only a fraction of what you get.

"...I must say I am really impressed by the quality of your Band-in-a-Box styles and I am looking forward to using your fake disk and book by playing the 'oldies' on my guitar accompanied by the computer band...your disk will certainly add a lot ! - J.P. de Hoog - The Netherlands

Just a note to say thank you very much. I received the User Style disks this morning, installed them into BB and WOW! What an improvement on PG Music's styles, especially connected to the Roland JV 1080 sound module. I'm really itching to work with it, but it will have to wait 'till tomorrow. And from next week I'm on leave, so you'll know where to find me.   Thank's once again for your prompt service. Give me time to work through this lot and then I'll place an order for the other disks. - eddie.goldberg.recording.studio@[domain omitted to avoid spam]
