Virtually all the BIAB files you find on the A lot of time and effort was put into creating those files etc., As many of the members were musicians or at least aspiring musicians, who wanted to share with follow musicians, but were very aware of the need for musicians and creators of music to be paid, we put readme’s in the zips and on the site saying: So back to the original question and a rant… eGroups then merged with Onelist which was then bought by Yahoo who merged it with Yahoo Clubs and that became Yahoo groups! During the various transitions, much was lost, and that was one of the reasons I was eventually goaded into moving this group from Yahoo to Groups.io.

It was there that archive of BIAB files really grew. Over time as the, internet grew with the launch of the first browsers, Mosaic etc., the use of BBs declined and so we moved the groups over to eGroups, and in particular a separate group for BIAB users. Other members of the BBs began using BIAB and so we forked a sub-group on BIAB and created a file repository. I think it was through another member, (I’m not sure Peter was a member – probably unlikely coz of the issues of international communication) but certainly he was researching technical aspects of MIDI and MIDI cards etc., and members of the group who worked for some of the early MIDI card makers had emailed/spoken with him etc., and then a while later I got the first release of BIAB running on MSDOS. This helped open up the system to more internationally, and in particular at that time Japan, where a lot of development work was being done.Īround the late 1980’s I became aware of Peter Gannon developing Band-In-A-Box through the BBs.

As BBs used dial-up it was prohibitively expensive dialing up internationally so around mid 80s we had changed the BBs software over to FidoNet as it used a store-and-forward system to exchange messages between the BBSes in the network. After MIDI was launched to the general public, many more people joined, and it grew to include those who had begun performing and composing with MIDI and developed a repository of MIDI files. It was specialist group for those technically minded involved in the development of MIDI and music software that used MIDI and as part of that we had an archive of MIDI files at that time mainly for test purposes. In the early 80’s I was involved in the development of MIDI, as part of that I helped establish a European-based SIG (Special Interest Group) bulletin board (dial-up) focused on MIDI development using Ward Christensen’s CBBS bulletin board software on a CP/M based computer. So where did all these BIAB files come from? Short answer: Well they came from this group and its fore-runners and the members of those groups.

He was one of the early contributors to this group and it’s fore runner. Wesley Dick, that’s a name I haven’t heard for quite a while.
