I created manually a Patchmap for Steinbergs Hypersonic 2 Softsynth which includes all my desired patches on higher banks. Using the dialog "choose patches from higher banks" in MIDI Menu I can select all those patches.

I would like to make a DEFAULT ADVANCED PATCHMAP including CC an CC32 to get acces to those Hammer sounds. In the Windows version there seems to be an option to create advanced patchmaps. I couldn't find this in the MAC version.

I would like to have a in depth instruction about "patch name familys" and handling sysex files. The current implemantation semms to use the GM patchnames as familynames....

How to set this up????

Hi,

It sounds like you want to automatically map a patch on the GM bank, to a different patch on a higher bank, without selecting the patch manually? There isn't a way to do this within BB itself, but there could be a third party MIDI utility you could use to accomplish it. I'm not sure if MidiPipe will do it, perhaps someone else knows...?

I think I fixed this Issue, but I'm still stucking with the autoload features of the MAC version. In the previous WIN versions I could select to autoload the latest Song. Now I end up in an empty song after starting biab. I would load my Hypersonic2.pat file as default as well. I'm confused....

It should remember which patch map you are using between sessions - I'm not sure why that wouldn't be the case. In other words when you open the 'Patches on Higher Banks' dialog, your patch map should already be selected.

A quick way to open the last song is to press Shift+F3 (favorite songs dialog) and then <enter> (since the previous song will already be selected).

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.
