Noel96 Veteran Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 18,920 Australia	John, Have you installed update #429? This update seemed to solve the issue of those who could not access the Display Options. From what I recall, the Display Options problem was related to (a) screen resolution (higher resolutions seemed to work ok) and (b) 16 bit graphics (32 bit graphic settings worked ok). If you are not sure if #429 is installed, have a look at "Help \| About Band In A Box", it should say 2016(429) for the version. Update #429 can be downloaded from the below url and installed manually. http://www.pgmusic.com/support_windowsupdates.htm Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

It's afternoon here in Australia so if you come back after the reboot, I'll see if I can help solve the problem (if it still exists). In the meantime... Tell me a little more about your set up. Is BIAB connected to an external keyboard, etc. Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

OP jt3 Apprentice J Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 178	thanks the reboot didn't get the sound working. I di a full down load for biab and realtracks on my pc. a smaller window came up and said I was set at 48000 and I needed to be 44100 or something like that. I can use the external drive with everything on it for tomorrows gig it works fine I wonder if the update 429 had anything to do with this?

Noel96 Veteran Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 18,920 Australia	The 429 update hasn't been known to create a problem with the sound. It's always possible to return to 427. Simply go to the update page, download 427 and install it. The 44,100/48,000 should be fine set at 48,000 if you have the option selected for the program to take control. It's strange that you have sound using the external drive but no sound using the hard drive. Do you have BIAB fully installed on you internal hard drive? MY SONGS...

Noel96 Veteran Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 18,920 Australia	Is it possible to take a screenshot of your audio set up under 'Midi driver' and upload it with your post? This waveform message you are getting is a new one on me. A thought... After installing 429, did you open up stylepicker so that the computer can rebuild the style list? MY SONGS...

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."
