Band-in-a-Box 11 for Macintosh OS 9 is Here!

First off, you'll get "guitar styles" styles that play and show strummed and picked guitar parts accurately on the guitar fretboard, using your choice of Pop, Jazz, Country, or Folk guitar chording. These are the best sounding guitar styles ever. And we include many "guitar styles" free with Version 11! Then there's the "Guitar Tutor", which shows you real guitar chords on a guitar fretboard along to any song, and in any style. There's also a chord substitution wizard, which can provide you with a choice of applicable substitutions for any chord progression. And you can automatically generate a Guitar Chord Solo to any melody.

Then there's the "MIDI File Chord Wizard" that reads any MIDI file and interprets the chords for you to be displayed in Band-in-a-Box. There's a new Melody Embellisher that automatically adds life to existing Melodies by adding slurs, grace notes, vibrato, legato changes, extra notes and more, to simulate the varied interpretations that different musicians make when playing a Melody. You can now Change Styles at any bar in the song. There's also a Chord Preview Builder. This feature allows you to hear how a chord sounds before you select it from the popular chord types offered. And many more new features...

Note: Band-in-a-Box version 11 runs under Mac OS X in Classic mode, however OMS and FreeMIDI do not work in the Classic environment. In addition, you may experience timing problems with Quicktime. We recommend that OS X users reboot under OS9 to run Band-in-a-Box, or use the native OS X version of Band-in-a-Box. To learn more, click here...

What is Band-in-a-Box?

Band-in-a-Box is an intelligent automatic accompaniment program for your multimedia computer.

You can hear and play along to many song ideas and go from "nothing" to "something" in a very short period of time with Band-in-a-Box as your "on demand" backup band.

Band-in-a-Box is a powerful and creative music composition tool for exploring and developing musical ideas with near-instantaneous feedback.

Over the years many features have been added to Band-in-a-Box - Notation, Lyrics, Melody Tracks, Harmonization, and a programmable StyleMaker. The Soloist and the Melodist are two major "intelligent" features; the Soloist generates professional quality solos over any chord progression, the Melodist can create songs from scratch with Chords, Melodies, Intros, Solos, and even a Title!

Band-in-a-Box for Windows® can also record an acoustic instrument or voice to add to the composition, with processing through DirectX audio effects.

Its built-in audio harmonies will turn your audio track into multiple harmony parts and even adjust its pitch by tracking the Band-in-a-Box Melody track. The inclusion of digital audio features makes Band-in-a-Box the perfect tool for creating, playing, and recording your music with MIDI, vocals, and acoustic instruments.

You can print out your finished creation with repeats and endings, DC markings and codas, or save it as a graphic file for web publication or to e-mail to a friend. And when you're ready to let others hear your composition, you can burn it directly to an audio CD. Or save your composition as a Windows Media File or in other compressed formats for a file that's "Internet ready."
