I want a completely clean slate to start a song, but even when I click on new, whatever RT/MIDI tracks are selected in the Mixer Window (top right) stay there. Is there a way to select New, and have those cleared as well?
Thanks
edit: Oh and when I ask BIAB to erase the real track, nothing happens - it just stays there...hence the need for the "New" question above. I mean , if BIAB actually removed the RT's there'd be no need.
Without details this is just a guess, but you probably have a style loaded, and the style loads that RealTrack. You could try removing the RealTrack and saving the style as a new name.

Thanks, but what I am after is building a song without first needing to choose a style. I want to enter my chords and then select RTs from the RT Picker dialogue with no pre-determined style,if that makes sense?
@Matt...yes exactly, but I don't want the previous RTs already loaded and the previous style already loaded (from the last song worked on) to be present. In other words a totalyl clean slate, sorry if I am not explaining it very well.
I found a "At Program Boot-Up" option (Don't open song or style) that does indeed give a clean slate (sorta, as there are still RDs loaded), but I cannot get it to do this from the New Song command.
I have never put the "last loaded style" in question. The slate for me is clean enough when I open BIAB and the style loads. I do know that I can change that style within a couple of seconds.
I also do know that this style doesn't do anything besides showing me that it is there. Only if I hit "Play" it springs into action. But I can choose another one before I do that.
Thanks Charlie! I did this and now get a blank style to start with!!
But, I have a question. When I do this why does BIAB show most tracks as blank, one track (Bass) as "Instrument: 0 < No Patch Change >" and one track (Drums) as "Instrument: 1 Standard Drum Kit"?
Shouldn't they all be blank? These little inconsistencies really add up to making it more confusing than it should be!

I don't know the answer but assume this is as close to 'blank' as BIAB can give us.

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.

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."
