During beta testing all I really did with the new style disk 77 was run through it once to check for any obvious glitches etc. I suppose like most folks, I was too busy trying out the 20 new sets of realtracks! But now it's February and I've had a bit more time I've had the chance to audition it in more relaxed times. All I want to say is don't over look it because it's midi only - that would be a loss! There are a lot of really good styles in here, as well as some hidden gems. A good example is UKPWRBAL which has a really excellent embedded piano solo in the demo - think Elton John about Tumbleweed Connection time, as well as really nice brass. UKBIGROK is a chance to impress your grandkids with your best Coldplay impressions. UKBLUE is a nice early 70s MOR/Pop sort of style with a really bright and airy B section. UKGROOVE does a better job at early 80s New Romantic pop than the styles on disk 52.
My only reservation is with the Ska-derived styles - the midi drums (which are the default) are a little bit hesitant (even transferred to Sonar and using EZDrummer) and the Reggae real drums are just too big sounding - the ska tracks are otherwise really good, with good (midi) bass lines and guitar stabs/fills, but they do cry out for a good ska real drums track. I did hear the Police were finished their tour - perhaps Steward Copeland could be persuaded to drop by Victoria for a couple of hours!
Anyway, hats off to PG - this is the music of my youth and it sounds really good. It will be overlooked in the welter of RTs, but that would be a shame.

If you've reviewed our Support page, you've probably noticed the Videos page, which separates our Band-in-a-Box® tutorial videos by category: Overview, VST DAW Plugin, Setup, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and there's even an Archive category to go down memory lane...

His top-three most watched videos include "How to Get Started with Band-in-a-Box," "How I use the Audio Chord Wizard in Band-in-a-Box," and "How to Create An Effective Solo Using Band-in-a-Box" - however he touches on many other topics and also demonstrates his own Band-in-a-Box® songs in the Band-in-a-Box Created Songs playlist!
