So today, when I click on a particular forum discussion area (which is highlighted yellow to indicate that there are unread messages), as soon as that forum discussion area displays, all the messages in the list shows having been read (the yellow highlight turns white), so I can't see what I have and haven't read.

I rarely pay attention to that. Although I did ask about this many years ago, coming from the old Cakewalk forum where, it was easy to see what post you had read, and if someone else had posted something new since you were there last....
I had given up on waiting for this forum to adopt something like that so I stopped looking and have relied mainly on my memory to determine where I have visited before..... and that's not always a very accurate way of doing it.
I think that the little GREEN DOT signifies that I have posted in the thread. Some of the folders are yellow..... and some are white..... and in some of the topics, they're ALL white and I know I haven't even peeked into some of the threads.... hmmmmmm....
Also.... "new" posts are BOLD and the folder is yellow..... But when I peek in the folder turns white and the BOLD goes to normal. Not exactly sure what that's supposed to let me know. Further down they are all white folders and regular font...... I'm guessing that means there's been activity in that thread since my last visit. And a visit from me is indicated by it being white when I leave. THe green dot remains to let me know I posted there.
OK I think I get it.
The one thing I would still like to see is some sort of indication even when the thread is normal font, white folder, and down the list a bit, and without a green dot to tell me I posted in it..... some sort of indicator that I have visited the post previously. Something as simple as having the dot turn yellow for a visit without a comment, and green for a visit with a comment. That would make searching the forums so much easier.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.
The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Why not just go to: My Stuff/Posts? It shows every thread you've posted in.

FWIW, I sometimes see the "post-it" notes for unread posts get out of step. I've tried logging out and logging in again, and thet has so far sorted it.
Jazz relative beginner, starting at a much older age than was helpful. Kawai MP6, Korg M50, Ui24R, Saffire Pro 40. AVL:MXE Linux; Windows 11; Win8.1: Scarletts BIAB2022 UltraPAK, Reaper, a bunch of stuff.
FWIW using the Back button will not refresh for the thread you were just in. The list needs to refresh with a fresh page load, whereas the Back button uses the cache. Just a thought
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
User Video: Next-Level AI Music Editing with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box®
The Bob Doyle Media YouTube channel is known for demonstrating how you can creatively incorporate AI into your projects - from your song projects to avatar building to face swapping, and more!
His latest video, Next-Level AI Music Editing with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box, he explains in detail how you can use the Melodist feature in Band-in-a-Box with ACE Studio. Follow along as he goes from "nothing" to "something" with his Band-in-a-Box MIDI Melodist track, using ACE Studio to turn it into a vocal track (or tracks, you'll see) by adding lyrics for those notes that will trigger some amazing AI vocals!
Wir waren fleißig und haben über 50 neue Funktionen und eine erstaunliche Sammlung neuer Inhalte hinzugefügt, darunter 222 RealTracks, neue RealStyles, MIDI SuperTracks, Instrumental Studies, "Songs with Vocals" Artist Performance Sets, abspielbare RealTracks Set 3, abspielbare RealDrums Set 2, zwei neue Sets von "RealDrums Stems", XPro Styles PAK 6, Xtra Styles PAK 17 und mehr!
Add updated printing options, enhanced tracks settings, smoother use of MGU and SGU (BB files) within PowerTracks, and more with the latest PowerTracks Pro Audio 2024 update!
Download and install this to your RealBand 2024 for updated print options, streamlined loading and saving of .SGU & MGU (BB) files, and to add a number of program adjustments that address user-reported bugs and concerns.
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.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
