I clicked on the link to demo the new RealTracks and it seems to list only the ones included in the 2016 Bonus Pack, is there a list of the new RealTracks that comes with 2017 that I'm somehow missing?

Thanks

I don't think you're missing anything... it usually takes a while after a new release to get all the pertinent information posted on the PGMusic web site. But keep watchin' because it's definitely coming soon!

Pat is right; there will be a few things coming that you may not have yet. The good news is that there is plenty that you do have to explore right now. I am very impressed with the new tracks and features.

ZOWIE!

Thanks for the list Andrew!

The Modern Steel and new Nylon Guitar tracks are awesome.

The new Shannon Forrest Drums are killer! Country Pop and Rock! It sounds like they were recorded with more SNAP to the SNARE... YES!!!

The "More Blues" and "Smooth Soul" - cool, cool, cool!!!

That's just for starters.

holy moly
Posted By: colly Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/01/16 05:38 PM
some seriously good styles .

They sound brilliant.

This might well be the best so far.
Posted By: Pat Marr Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/01/16 06:08 PM
not only are the tracks themselves good, but they did something to make the RT "stitching" better. In other words, Transitions between the generated snippets is more natural sounding. So what might have taken multiple regenerations to get a natural flow in the past should be closer now on the first generation.

Oh.. and did I say 202 real tracks? There are also 24 bonus RTs for anybody who buys in December
Posted By: Mark Money Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/01/16 08:47 PM
Dam*!
I've only installed the 49 bonus so far and I am LOVING *Burbank Simple Solo Hard Rock*
These style packs just keep on getting better and better!
The best thing is the inspiration the packs will give me for my song writing.
They quality sounds fantastic - once again I am blown away guys! The drums sound improved and just the different guitar styles are so eclectic... wow! laugh So glad I didn't resist lol

Which ones? I can't find that information on the web.

But is it 64-bit???
Posted By: Matt Finley Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/02/16 11:57 AM
LtKojak, it is not. While there has been much support for 64-bit, as of yet no one has provided a convincing need. Addressing additional memory is not needed at this time, and JBridge allows access to 64-bit plugins.
Posted By: J. Larry Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/02/16 01:04 PM
Yes, the new real tracks are amazingly better sounding. Maybe PG Music sneaked in some professional recording engineers, along with all the pro players creating the tracks. I think it takes both to create that radio-ready, polished sound they’re now beginning to get.
Posted By: Pat Marr Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/02/16 01:06 PM
2017 is kind of an "infrastructure release" in the sense that a lot of small changes have been made that improve performance.

...all that plus more than twice the usual number of real tracks! and all the usual new features!

There's good stuff happenin' in PGMusic land!


Think the 201 realtracks was available in biab 16 as well, so maybe not a new thing.

I based that on an actual quote from one of the write-ups on the new version that was part of the beta test... but the version comparison shows that about 200 new RT has been the norm for the past few years..
http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.packages.ultra.htm

Sorry for the confusion. The blurb in the beta document might not have made it to the live ads... but I'll start reading thru the live ads to see if this has been reported correctly. Thanks for pointing that out to me.. I don't want to make false claims.

the same statement appears in the quick start video

I can attest that I read what Pat read. Yes, post when you've researched that. Maybe use the Internet archive to see last year's announcement.

I tried to check out last year's pages about a different issue and found that PG has set their website to not allow archiving by the internet archive (https://web.archive.org/). That is disappointing!
Posted By: Matt Finley Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/02/16 04:28 PM
That's something new. I used it this summer to answer a forum question.

EDIT: Ah, yes, robots.txt Too bad. I will ask about this.
Posted By: PeterGannon Re: RealTracks in BIAB 2017? - 12/02/16 05:35 PM
There are 202 new ones this release. There were 201 new ones last year. All years before that there 101 new ones. (Some of those years had a .5 release with more Realtracks.

So the usual number with the December release is 101. So this year release of 202 is double the usual number.

Peter, can you share the reasoning behind changing the website so the archiving no longer works? It has been helpful to many in the past to be able to see older pages from prior years.

Presenting BIAB as a plug-in would be a better solution for my needs and my workflow, being used to work with EZDrummer and EZKeys THEN maybe PG Music could take the plunge into uncharted 64-bit territory.

One can dream, isn't it? wink

That would be really nice, agreed. Yeah, I missed the meaning on the other thing. We are a little punchy after testing so hard.
