Så fik jeg endeligt mit eksemplar af Band-in-a-Box 2014. Husk at læse ReadMe filen, før du begynder at downloade. Det anbefales at man bruger en Download manager. Det betyder der er mindre chance for, at der skal gå noget galt under download. Endvidere behøver man ikke sidde ved maskinen hele tiden. Efter installation af hovedprogrammet (Band-in-a-Box.exe skal man installere alle RealTracks. Der er nu kommet en Master installer, som installerer alle RealTracks, hvis de ligger i samme mapppe.
Efter en vellykket installation kan man endelig komme i gang. Band-in-a-Box skal nu aktiveres med et serienummer. Aktiver med det medfølgende serienummer fra Hjælp menuen.
Et første blik på den nye brugerflade afslører at BIAB har fået et meget mere velordnet udseende. Ikonerne er ordnet i logiske grupper og en del ikoner er forsvundet. De funktioner de repræsenterede findes nu som undermenuer i andre ikoner.
Mixeren er fastgjort i højre hjørne og har fået en masterfader. Jeg må indrømme, det irriterer mig at mixeren ligger ned og ikke vender som en ”almindelig” mixer. Man kan nu fryse enkelte spor direkte fra mixeren.
Dropboksen er forbedret, så den nu er delt i fire og man kan umiddelbart se, hvor man skal droppe.
Stilartvælgeren (Style Picker) har fået en forbedring som gør, at man lynhurtigt kan høre en stilart. Man skal blot dobbeltklikke på stilartnavnet. Dette er enormt tidsbesparende, da man ofte bruger rigtig meget tid til at finde den helt rigtige stilart.
Akkordarket har fået en ny font, som ser rigtig godt ud. Alt i alt er brugerfladen mere velordnet og mere moderne at se på.
Der er kommet mange rigtig lækre RealTracks. Det er som om deres RealTraks bliver bedre og bedre!. Der er også kommet flere HiQ lyde samt masser af Super Midi Tracks.
En anden større ny funktion er UserTracks, Det er hjemmelaved RealTracks. Jeg har endnu ikke prøvet at lave nogle, men det ser ud til at være ret overkommeligt.
Endvidere er der kommet en Vocal synth som kan synge (en japansk sangerinde!) BIAB sange hvis de indeholder tekst. Det er vist mest pjat! Alt i alt er det en af de større opgraderinger, som absolut er pengene værd. Se nedenstående billede af brugerfladen.

Musiker. Har lille musikproduktions virksomhed (nodeskrivning, undervisning, studie, oversættelse af bl.a. BIAB). Hvis du synes Band-in-a-Box er vanskelig at komme i gang med, kan jeg tilbyde undervisning via Skype, - også i Cubase. Se min Facebook profil Lindbjerg Musikproduktion

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."
