 A Great Program, 2008-01-13
Band in a Box has everything my husband needs for the music he uses in different music programs, he really loves it. The only problem he has with it is that it is difficult to learn how to get the combinations of back up tracks he needs. But it has all the equipment for groups and the different back up tracks. After he figures out how to make it do all the things he wants it to do, we will be ordering more up grades for it. He thinks it is a fantstic program for musicians from beginners and professionals.

A Jazz Player, 2007-08-27
Simply put, this is a kickass product. I dig the "big piano" which helps with left hand / right hand position. Since I purchased this item, my playing has improved 10-fold over the last 3-months. Now I realize I went too long playing solo. A backing band is what I needed and now it's what I got when I come home from the old day job and plunk the ebony and ivories.

Great Songwriting Tool, 2007-07-09
I started with Band In A Box in the 90s when it was on DOS Diskettes. It has been my co-writer ever since. Each upgrade has taken it to new levels.
Band In A Box is like having musicians on call 24/7. And now with the "Auto Chord Wizard" I can let Band In A Box figure out the chord changes to any song within minutes.

Excellent backing, 2007-05-30
This is an excellent software, I use it almost dayly as backing for my practice. I play jazz-guitar, and wether I want to practice improvising or comping this is a fantastic resource. I just type in the chords and choose an appropriate style. The program will produce excellent bass and druming, the 2007 version includes "real drummer" with the drums based on recorded playing of real drummers. This is an important improvements over older versions. The piano, guitar and string is OK, while if you add a melody line that is goint to sound very MIDI-like, not like live music, but sometimes it is still useful to have the melody playing.
For soloing and melody playing the comp is very good. I do not buy book/CD with backing tracks anymore. Even when I want to practice comping, it is important to have at least the bass and rythm to get an idea of how the comping sounds with a full band. Also in this respect is this software excellent.
Beware though that this is a rich program, and a such it contains much more features than you are likely to ever apply. With this rich set of possibilities, the downside is that it may be difficult to figure out how to do what you want. On one occation I sent an e-mail to the support, and got a swift and very helpful response.
