I sing in a mixed Gospel quartet, and I hope to use BIAB and RealBand to help generate tracks for us to sing along with. These days, we're doing a lot of Cathedrals and Gaither Vocal Band stuff. I just got the Southern Gospel style set (#20), but I wish there was a set of RealTracks I could use in addition.

I am not sure, but I was requesting for deepsoul, isn't that in the same style? If so, then I also add my voice here...

There are certain RealTracks that can be mixed in with the Southern Gospel all-MIDI styles.

Experiment.

You could add a slide guitarist, guitar player, fiddle player, mandolin, even dirty B3 organ to the existing MIDI tracks.

In other words, don't view this as having to have a specified "RealTracks Style"...

I was experimenting a little last night and coming up with some good stuff. (I just got started with BIAB a few days ago, so I'm still in learning mode.) Being a novice at it, I just find it easier to find things that work well together if they are already bundled as a style.

I still have some more RealTracks sets I want to buy. This is fun and addictive and will probably eat up my budget.

Sure thing, and I also did that from the first day I got BiaB, but more variation and dedicated styled realtracks wouldn't hurt. The other realtracks to combine for my ideas are pretty much limited as for one I don't want to use the violin or steelguitars, since I don't like to mix that with the sound I have in mind. In matter of fact I allready use gospel as a compromising style so even other styles of instruments playing around is a bit too much of a difference)The strumming accoustic I use yes, but that is about it. What I would like is some mellow (Ihope that is the right wordchoice) guitar picking slowly over the chords as you often hear in deepsoul. And besides, there are also plenty of jazz and country tracks, so why not add some other styles a bit more as well?

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."
