Hello all! I usually write my melodies in Encore, save them as midi, then import them into BIAB. This has worked for years. I have BIAB 2015 now and have a new problem with them not playing correctly. They "stutter" and "skip" especially on "swing" melodies. But, the musical readouts in notation are perfect. Thanks! JZ
Having fun!

Johnny, A couple of thoughts spring to mind. 1. Is there a Realtrack using the Melody track? This might be interfering. 2. I wonder if it's something to do with note length when the file is created in Encore. Go to the Piano Roll mode and you'll be able to see if the notes are long enough. Each note should pretty much extend to the next note. The red notes I've highlighted below are are very short and won't sound correct when played. Regards, Noel

I can't believe what happened, Noel. I worked on this for 3 hours yesterday. Got tired, finally shut everything down. This morning, brought everything up and it plays wonderfully! Who woulda thunk? BTW, and listening to your "Always There". Love it, and the suspended 4ths in the melody bridge are so neat. Also in that bridge, you've got a wonderful couple of chord changes that add a lot of class to your chart. Just thought I'd let you know. JZ

Also, I'm glad all is back to working again for you. Sometimes with Windows, a reboot is the best way to resolve issues. It's a good first step in the problem-solving process. All the best, Noel

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

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!

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."
