but now you need an option for the notation mode to show a whole lot more then 4 bars Always have had it, Notation View -> Options -> Bars/Screen at top center. --Mac What I meant is more rows of measures.Yes you could have 12 bars across why not more rows. Lot of empty real estate there.

but I don't read so am not an expert on how many bars you'd want to be able to look ahead.

There is a Build 379 update available, which includes significant updates to the shots and holds files.
Added: Additional shots and holds files for new RealTracks are added.
There just seems to be wma files, no wav files for the Audiophile version, SH2xxx.wma ?

There just seems to be wma files, no wav files for the Audiophile version, SH2xxx.wma ? I wrote Support about this question. An audiophile version of the patch is coming. Of course, the styles will still work in the meantime using the .WMA files. In general, patches involving the audiophile version are released following some delay after the patch.

EDIT: This is the 380 2gig Audiophile update. Before installing 380 I noticed there were Holds folders 269,270,275 in the root of the Direct Input/Library folder "G:\bb\RealTracks\Direct Input\Library\" they have the wav files only in them then after installing 380 the same folders in G:\bb\RealTracks\Direct Input\Library\Holds have the wma, bt1, xm2 etc.. in them.

If you have the Audiophile edition of Band-in-a-Box 2014, you can download this complete audiophile patch (2 GB) instead

Andrew,
After I applied the update patch I was unable to load songs that used Soundtank or Amplitude. It gave me messages about Registration error or unregistered product and then the whole program would freeze.
I re-installed the plug ins thinking something had become corrupted - problem persisted. After a bit of research I modified my BIAB shortcut to run the program as Administrator - BINGO - no problems.
It is possible that the UPpate had nothing to do with the problem. Just the same, this information might be helpful if someone else has a similar issue.

We've encountered the Run as Administrator problem quite a few times for the IKMultimedia plugins, seems to be OS dependent for some as well.
As for the when or why of it, IIRC some have indeed encountered the problem after a program update, but others haven't. ?
I think it is good of you to report these things as more data can only lead to more insight for the development team.

Makes me wonder if Windows saw the update file as a new file (even with the same file name) and the administrator setting had to be reapplied.

Hi,
Just installed 381 two days ago which is only 26MB.
Do I just install the new 40MB 381 on top?
or do I need to remove the previous one?
Thanks.
Lee

Hi Lee, and welcome to the forum.
To answer your question, we need to know which version of BIAB you had before the update.
In general, running updates from PG Music seems to be safe, because the updates appear to overwrite only the files that need changing.

Thanks Matt.
Biab 2014 build 380 before the 26MB 381 update which doesn't include the 2014 user guide.

As I understand it, if you had build 380, the smaller 40 MB 381 update is all you need. The larger 240 MB one is for those who had builds older than 380.
To my knowledge, the complete 2014 manual is not yet available and has nothing to do with this update (unless I missed an announcement in the last two days).

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."
