Izotope has still not updated the large majority of its plug-ins for Ventura which was released last October. They haven't even updated their compatibility page since March 22. I decided I was no longer going to wait on buying a new Mac and went ahead and updated to Ventura. This was in the face of a zillion warnings not to do so if you are running a suite of Izotope products. I was so frustrated I had decided I could make do with my large Waves Audio library in the interim even though some pundits said that the non updated Izotope plug-ins could prevent Logic Pro from even loading. Pretty dire.

But ... I loaded Ventura and EVERY Izotope product I own, even legacy plug-ins dating back years all work with zero hitches. What the heck? I've waited six months for nothing? Whatever.

A HUGE disclaimer: I am not recommending that anybody else try this because I have zero ideas of why it all works on my older Mac. But I'm glad it worked out for me.

I have a iMac Retina with Ventura 13.2 OS and Logic 10.7.7 installed with Nectar, Neutron3, Rx5 and Ozone 9 installed.
I use Studio One Pro 6 mostly because of cross platform with my PC. I did not see any crashes when I loaded the effects into Logic though. I tried out Neutron 3 just to see if it did anything unusual but seems to work.

No problems here on either Mac except with some older reverbs that will never be updated. Easy enough not to use them.

I have a 2020 M1 Macbook Air running Ventura, and so far no major problems here. I do video editing on that one and use the Izotope RX plugins in Davinci without any major issues, plus a few other plugins here and there. I've also used a number of DAWs on Ventura for testing the Band-in-a-Box plugin, including the latest versions of Logic, Garage Band, Reaper, Pro Tools, Waveform, Cubase, Nuendo, and Reason, again with no problems - although it should be said that I'm not recording or mixing using those DAWs.

I have a Mac Mini M2 Pro arriving today. Here’s hoping all will function properly.

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."
