My new Realtracks show up in the Style Picker below "Odd Time Signatures", as RT 127 etc. Is there away to move them into the Jazz Category? And why are they not in there first hand? The old Gypsy RTs are in there, why not the new ones?

It's one of the new features. I think it gets taken out and put back in when there are only 49 ... (never mind it was a joke)
We all have them there, I found it easier to test them, I don't know if they are going to move, but there is work going on regarding the styles/stylepicker for an 'update'.

There is a mistake in the latest update and the new styles are not included in the general styles lists. PG have said this will be corrected in the next issue.

Mine show up in the jazz list. As stated, we are planning a patch update that has all of the latest files, my BBW.LST file is July 15 for example.

Well speak of the devil! Just released.... There is a patch for 2011.5 (build 325). It requires 2011.5 to be already installed. There actually isn't a new build of bbw.exe, but other files are updated. http://www.pgmusic.com/support_windowsupdates.htm General maintenance patch. Miscellaneous fixes related to RealTracks Sets 122-136. Added: Band-in-a-Box 2011.5 full User Guide. ***** Updated: StylePicker list updated. ***** Fixed: Some organ shots and holds didn't work. Updated: A couple of styles in the RealDrums Picker didn't display properly.
Have Fun! Peter Gannon PG Music Inc.

Peter,
First when auditioning RT the sound is/was fantastic. When using them as a patch, was less than enthusiastic.
Not sure if my head injury healed or what. But with the new stylepicker listings am easily able to audition the real styles.
And they sound great, a few of them are missing drum sets, but probably just dont own them.
Anyway, me not paying attention, or your new changes. Gail's input during our recent phone conversation helped a great deal.
Very happy with results.

"Web Demo" button top right of style picker window. Cats Pajama's it is.
Just got my hi-speed bout month ago, so reveling in goodies like this. Your demo's give a real feeling of how the style is used and sounds.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
