In the beginning band lab was so freaking awesome. You had access to A+ recording software. The applications really was geared to new and growing artists with a great community of fellow artist to share your work with and grow. Now, just like Facebook, MySpace, eBay, and every other corporate tainted “machine” is slowly being geared twords a paid premium service. The day is fast approaching where bandlab is more concerned with revenue and how to leach money from the user to grow their company and software to which really needed none of that to begin with. The day is probably already here. So instead of downloading this app, go to guitar center or sweet water and buy a multi track recorded that comes with a lifetime subscription to software and put your stuff out on SoundCloud or reverb cuz really no one ever gets famous off this app anyway. It’s now just a way for some corporate slime ball to line their pockets while making an aspiring artist gain hope of something that has never happened and will never happen from using this app. Yea it’s cool and fun but not worth putting any dollars in at all. Also there are a lot of scammers out there trying to message people saying they want to sign them blah blah blah, just to get their bank account information to take their money or use their information to fraud other people.

I utilized BandLab to get two publishing deals and I did it all from my phone and a tablet. One publishing deal for being an artist and the second one was for producing. after a break up where it was dire I needed the money for what I produced at that time, some people said the software isn’t up to par with the more notable programs that producers and artist or engineers may use. But I figured sound is really how you been the wavelength. I don’t know if it’s the best software, but I know I can use it to get the sound that I want for the most part. I’m not a professional engineer. I am an artist who spent hours and hours learning mixing with presets and vocal inflections etc. I am still learning. Before BandLab entered my life, music creation was a constant struggle against technical limitations and geographical isolation. The dream of producing my own music seemed distant, a vision blurred by the lack of accessible tools and platforms. Then came BandLab, a beacon of innovation in the digital audio workstation (DAW) landscape. With its user-friendly interface and a plethora of built-in presets, BandLab redefined what it meant to be a musician on the go. It wasn’t just a software; it was a revolution that turned my smartphone into a powerful studio. The impact was immediate and profound. BandLab’s integrated MIDI editor, vast library of loops, and virtual instruments unlocked a world of creativity that I never knew existed within me.

I’m gonna keep this quick, also I’m focusing on pc BandLabs lacks many features that other companies have. These features would be very useful for me, and many other artists. We need more presets (not talking about the fx stuff necessarily, more mean stuff like Lofi) We need more utility. We have some, such as the background noise filter, but things such as a declipper would be very useful. And finally some things to make BandLabs more convenient. On pc at least, there is no way to make your music go in and out of frequencies. you can’t move and place individual sounds for beat making, it all needs to be in one go (which is very annoying). No button to go all the way back to the beginning on the song, you need to swipe/drag the bar. And other things I’m not including TLDR: needs more utility, presets, and convenience features. Ps: something that would be very nice is a guide for beat making, like where it shows outlines of what beats would go well with it. FL Studios has a great system like this, and of course BandLabs won’t be able to be equal to/better than FL, but it would still be great to see some of these futures down the road.
