Zakk Wylde book "Bringing Metal to the Children"

Zakk Wylde promos new heavy metal handbook

Told you the other day about guitarist Zakk Wylde’s new book, “Bringing Metal To The Children.”

Billed as “the handbook to all things heavy metal,” the new book by Wylde, guitar legend and Black Label Society frontman, invites all who dare onto the tour bus for tales of glory, debauchery, and general mayhem. The book is co-authored by Eric Hendrikx.

Wylde shares what really goes on behind tour bus windows and backstage doors. The twenty-five year music veteran of the Ozzy Osbourne band and Black Label Society details his survival techniques for maintaining a life on the road, managing a band of raging vikings, and somehow making it on stage and blowing the crowd away night after night.

Band-in-a-Box Pro 2011 MegaPAK for Windows Vista / 7 / 98 / 2000 / Me / XP

Product Description

Band-in-a-Box 2011 for Windows is here with over 50 great new features! The award winning Band-in-a-Box is so easy to use! Just type in the chords to any song (like C or Fm7b5), choose a musical style from the hundreds available, and click the [Play] button. Band-in-a-Box automatically generates a full backing arrangement including RealDrums and RealTracks. That's right, LIVE audio recordings of actual musicians. Band-in-a-Box includes a "Plug-in" mode, allowing you to simply Drag-n-Drop tracks between Band-in-a-Box and your favorite sequencer (RealBand, Sonar, Reaper, ProTools, FL-Studio, Nuendo and more). There are some exciting new features in Band-in-a-Box 2011. We've made big improvements to the sound of the RealTracks so that they sound more natural over a much (3x) wider range of tempos. And we've made the size of the RealTracks much smaller, so that they now only take up 30% of the space that they used to. The new version will shrink the size of your existing RealTracks too, so that you can free up lots of space on your drive. We've made an iPhone version of Band-in-a-Box, available from the Apple App Store. It connects to your Windows desktop version of Band-in-a-Box 2011, and allows you to generate, play, and save songs on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad - with the same high quality RealTracks sound! We've enhanced RealTracks, so that you can now have RealTracks styles changes within a song, generate Soloist Medleys - solos that play RealTracks instruments during the solos, and more. There's a Scales Wizard for practicing, which generates scales for any chord progression. New StylePicker Filters show you only the styles that match your search criteria. And many more…
