A big effort went into that. The songs even allow transposing to any key signature. Impressive.

Checking further, it opened for me using Chrome also.

No problems here. This is something new. I have never seen the .site extension in the past. The charts are drawn from the original pages of the Real Book. You can adjust the key up or down and the chart changes. But the charts do not play. There is no midi or audio. Instead there is in many of the ones i have looked at a youtube link to a recording video of the song. But there is no file to download.

You can "join" and you can "uplode" or you can "donate$".

My first impression is positive.

I get the impression that the site may be from Russia somewhere. The 'Donate' tab displays in Russian text.

It opened fine here in Chrome.

I just tested to print a few files to PDF.

The PDFs are structured (not graphical) so I dropped it into "PDFtoMusic" and it could read the score and play the music correct.

Then I tried to export it from PDFtoMusic to midi and then loaded it into MuseScore4 and GuitarPro8, but here it got a bit messed up and will need some editing.

Here is the anti-malware message I get. Note that I have the paid version of Malwarebytes.
{edit} -if Malwarebytes says don't go there I don't go there. Why take a chance?

Thanks,
I also have an extensive virus protection software om my PC, but it did not give any warnings. Scanning the downloaded PDFs for virus does not show anything. But I think I leave this site anyway.

I'm wondering if Muse Group will be able to shut this down now that they own The Real Book as of a couple months ago and administer all the copyrights contained.

Being a copyright troll site, it surely must be on their radar.

Good point. I wondered about the copyright thing also but I don't have the knowledge or the desire to dig deeper into it.

Understandable. US Copyrights, being public records, are easy to look up. Still, it can be time consuming even for someone as experienced as me. In this case, these pages are scans of pages from The Real Book, so called because the proper Copyright licenses have been obtained.

Muse Group has an ambitious plan to remake the world of music as we know it and they may just have to money to pull it off. None of this can happen without the rights holders being paid. Enter Hal Leonard, largest sheet music publisher in the world but, more importantly, they've been at this 'licensing music and getting people paid' routine for a very long time. There's a detailed article in Scoring Notes that gets into Muse Group, their plans and how Hal Leonard fits into this. As a content creator yourself, you'll be surprised by what's going on and may see some opportunities down the road.

Leave it to the Russians.

I remember a site boogiewoogie.ru from a few years ago.
They had pdf versions of much sheet music available to download at no cost.
Hundreds, perhaps thousands of titles.
Just about every real book. Lots of popular music. Classical stuff also.

No regard for who owned the rights.

These aren't direct scans of the pages - the notation is rendered using the free Verivio music notation rendering library. They're using the free Petaluma jazz music notation font, which is why it looks like like it's scanned from the RealBook.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

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!

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."
