Trev,

You're a mind reader!!!! That's what I was going to suggest if Kevin had 2016.... seriously, LOL!


Kevin,

I agree with Trevor, the freeze track option will speed things up.

When you think about the fact that in the space of a handful seconds, an entire backing is created that uses world-class musicians, it's a pretty spectacular accomplishment! It never ceases to amaze me that I can create something that sounds so good by simply clicking on a BIAB button called 'Generate'.

Regards,
Noel

"in the space of a handful seconds, by simply clicking on a button called 'Generate'".

That makes me laugh in the office.

Yes, since this is so amazing, how could I dare complain it acts like Flash (from Zootopia)?

So, referring to your wording above, you are not just a composer but also a lyrics writer, or that's just a very common expression in English - "in the space of a handful seconds".

Hey Kevin,

LOL.... I write lyrics, too. I didn't realise it until you drew my attention to it but the line "in the space of a handful of seconds" has an excellent rhythm.

wwSwwSwwSw

(w = weak stress, S = strong stress)

The poets would call that anapestic trimeter... now I just need to try and remember it smile

I do not see this Combo button you are talking about on my 2016 version of BIAB. I do not have the Audiophile version.

Where exactly is this located.

jcland,

When I checked the date of Peter's post, it was made on November 25, 2009. BIAB has undergone a few changes in the 5.5 years since.

The Combo option used to be what is now the "Master" option (top left of the tracks). The 'Song has changed...' selection is found there.

Regards,
Noel

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.

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."
