A Build 7 Update is available for RealBand Version 2017Download the build 7 updateThis is a cumulative update, that works from any previous 2017 build. Summary of Changes for Build 7 (April 6, 2017)- Potential access violation during ASIO playback.
- Always On ASIO is now automatically restarted after suspend to prevent issues with it not working properly afterward.
- Title of the program sometimes changed to "file converter" after importing a WAV file. This would be noticeable in the Windows Task Bar, or when alt-tabbing, etc.
- Errors when recording multiple tracks at once with build 6.
Summary of Changes for Build 6 (Mar 27, 2017)- Fixed: RealTracks generation failed in certain cases with build 5, if using MME drivers and 'Output Always On' was selected.
Summary of Changes for Build 5 (Mar 15, 2017)- Fixed: Improved support for the Vielklang VST instant harmonies plugin.
- Added: Always on MME added (checkbox setting).
- Improved: Much faster initialization of accompaniment functions (e.g. StylePicker and RealTracks Picker).
- Fixed: The time location of time-based VSTi plugins was being continually advanced when RB was stopped. This has been fixed so that the VSTi time location now gets set to RB's current time location when playback is not happening.
- Added: Drag and drop from the drop station to VSTi plugins that support this, is now implemented
- Added: In the PDF manual, clicking on the Bookmarks navigation pane, Table of Contents, or Index will jump to the corresponding page. (Note: To use the navigational elements, you need to open the PDF manual in Adobe Reader.)
Summary of Changes for Build 4 (Feb 20, 2017)- FIXED - Program title was changed to 'file converter' if a conversion needed to be done such as after recording (this affected the title shown when alt-tabbing or hovering over the icon on the task bar, etc.).
- FIXED - Spurious warning about rebuilding style picker when not needed has been removed.
- FIXED - FX button now correctly turns blue if MIDI track is actually using a VSTi or DXi synth.
- FIXED - the choose note dialog in Notation Window had garbled text.
- FIXED - saving to XML would result in the timing being wrong, if the song's PPQ was not 120.
- FIXED - when drawing a slur in the situation of notes being extremely close together, program could potentially slow down or freeze.
- FIXED - a few miscellaneous minor localization and help-topic link issues
Summary of Changes for Build 3 (Dec 9, 2016)- FIXED - Issue with the program freezing when non-realtime transposing a song with audio, or when doing a non-realtime time stretch or pitch shift on a track.
- UPDATED - Help files, manuals, tip files.
Summary of Changes for Build 2 (Dec 7, 2016)- ADDED - RealScore and BigBand added to the Staff Options Chord Font selection combo box.
- ADDED - in note edit dialog, forced accidentals and note types (invisible, bend, hammer on, pull off, etc.) are now easier to select via listboxes that are always visible, rather than pull down combos.
- ADDED - Quarter Step checkbox in note edit dialog shown when the current note type is Bend.
- FIXED - when running Build 1 for the first time without any RB.CFG present, the Lead Sheet would display the stave lines extremely close together, unless Print Preview was visited at least once after running it for the first time.
- FIXED - when printing, or displaying just just the bass clef (no tab) in leadsheet, the note numbers were drawn above the clef which was interfering with chords symbols.
- ADDED - new setting adjust the vertical height of Bar Numbers in the Print Options dialog.
- ADDED - when saving notation to a jpg, in Print Preview, width and height settings are remembered.
- ADDED - checkbox to keep the ratio the same when changing width or height in Print Preview, and when saving to a jpg
- FIXED - In Staff Roll mode, the staff window wasn't showing notes that are at the start of a row.

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."
