The biggie missing in RB for me is Loop Record for comping vocals (singing sections of a song multiple times and have each take automatically put on a different track without me having to stop and rewind after each one). It's a feature I expect in any sequencer these days and something I absolutely need more than any of the existing RB features.
I need to sing a portion of a song through a couple of times before I get into it so, when working in Logic, I would go into Loop Record and sing half a dozen takes of a song section in one go then have them automatically put on separate tracks. I'd like to be able to easily select the best portions then combine them into a single lead vocal track.
I regard this as a really basic and essential function - I had it on simple Atari sequencers in the 1980s. RB has really powerful features yet lacks this elementary one - unless it's there and I'm missing it somewhere (and PG tech support have missed it too)?
I no longer have access to my expensive version of Logic Platinum since Apple bought the company and they stopped supporting it on PC so it's stuck on my old P3 with Windows 98. I use RB on my new Windows Vista laptop and am now having to contemplate buying Sonar just so I can get Loop Record.
But if RB was to include Loop Record...
Don't know if PT had it? I have PT but could never get it to work.
RB often crashes when I press the Stop button. But that's another story...

Frankly, I would not waste my money on Sonar. I have producer 8 issues in Vista. My Rapture synth for Sonar, sold by Cakewalk and touted as totally Vista compatible won't even run. I have been with them for some time but each issue seems to have more config issues than the former. And as a Roland user of several devices, we all know they make the best gear and worst manuals on the planet--and now Cakewalk is Roland.
And the email support is ridiculous. You have to submit a complete new form each time instead of entering into a back and forth dialogue with the support tech--and forget the phone.

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."
