I agree with you on that point, very nice.

But I'll bet the PG staffing folks are not taking many
days off at a crucial time like this....

I've lived a sheltered life and have not used BIAB yet. I AM going to purchase BIAB 2014! I've waited over 60 years for this product and I can easily wait a few more weeks before it's available...

THE HECK I CAN!

Wally,

I do not know how you can wait for your first one as I cannot wait for my upgrade!!!

My patience is now wearing thin and I keep popping in on the site hoping against hope that they are releasing 2014 early. I am taking my holiday during early December this year and am hoping that I could have my hands on it to spend some quality daylight time on it for a change .....


I'm doing allright for Country Trash ....

I just wonder if I'll be able to afford it when it is finally released. Not having the midyear upgrade is PG Music going to have to up its prices to cover the newest version?

History of it says, "No".

Matter of fact, the history of releases has more times where there wasn't any X.5 midyear release than there are such releases.

And I suppose that I have been waiting over 60 year for me to first get my first BIAB program as well.

I will admit it is getting harder and harder to wait......

But what is it that they say...good thing come to those who wait....

"Historically", the 20nn version would be released in December. Is the announcement usually made on November 30th? Friday the 29th?

Not that I'm in a hurry to get it....

I don't ever remember having the new version announced or released before December.

Well I reckon if its going to be a "big one" with all the changes such as 64 bit and GUI changes that a lot of people have been asking for, I think we will have an early release, and a lot of happy people.


If on the the other hand things remain the same with biab with 50 extra features and the usual upgrade of realtracks and other things, then maybe it will be a late release, it will be getting nearer to Christmas and people won't have time to be unhappy, and will treat themselves to the upgrade anyways!

Of course you can consume the above with a large pinch of salt!

Actually I'm very patient and not thinking about it much. BTW which week in December? :-)

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."
