Has anyone found a way to get this to work? WIN 10, BIAB WIN2022, Studio One 5, Audient iD4

I clicked on the string in the TAB display (bottom) then clicked on the fret position of that string on the guitar fretboard. I just tried it the other way and that worked too.

But from reading the "Blurb" regarding new features, my understanding is that you should be able to: 1) Click the TAB line (say G string) 2) Insert note at say (C5) 3) The TAB should appear on the third TAB line. However, it appears on the B String, (I know you can rechannel etc) but am I misunderstanding the way the new feature was outlined? There is an easier method of guitar tab entry; click on the string (on the tab), then click on the note (on notation, or on-screen guitar) to get it entered on that string/fret.

Clicking the tab THEN clicking the string just does the same thing because I guess, RB ignores the click on the TAB. Hope that makes sense.

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.
