I have BiaB 2021 Audiophile on Windows 10 with the latest update 804

When right-clicking on the master button top-left of page we have the options: "Freeze all tracks" "Un-freeze all tracks". These don't work for me.

Could someone please try the above to see if you have the same result?

Thanks.

I used the style _Sensual.STY that I had loaded from another forum topic so I decided to use it as a test.

When I click on the master with the mouse and hold it, I get the universal symbol of 'no you can't do this', but I can drag it down to the MP3 choice and it generates all the tracks in the drag-drop folder. All the the other track choices to click, seem to work just fine as they change state on the screen.

However I did find another problem, the master track was created as an MP3 file but all the other individual tracks were created as WAV files, not what I expected to happen if I dragged the master choice to the MP3. I had to go into preferences and change Drag Audio As to MP3 in the DAW options.

Question for PGMUSIC: Why do I have to change the DAW option when you have the MP3 box as a choice on the main screen. Looks like the settings in the DAW options are overwriting the action of dragging into the MP3 box in the main screen.

Thanks for replying.

When I right-click on the "Master" button I do get a menu with the options to freeze or unfreeze all tracks. However, when I select either of these, they don't work.

When you click for example, the bass track, you have to also go into Track Settings and there you can freeze or un-freeze the track. Look like anything other then the Master button, you have to go in one deeper into the menu.

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."
