Last night I installed BIAB 2016 for windows. Unfortunately, NONE of my STYLES are working. I have tried many styles from each of the categories. When I play a "premade demo of the style", it plays fine. Unfortunately, when I then click OK, then try to play MY chords using the chosen style, I get no sound and this message; "Not found. This means you do not have the real track that is required for this style or solo. Help!

What pack have you bought please?
If you only installed the BB2016 prog itself then maybe it's waiting for you to install the Styles you got.

Band-in-a-Box® for Windows
Version 2016 (432)
I'm fairly certain that I installed the Styles.
Any suggestions?

Ralph,
In addition to Ian's question....
I notice that you registered with the forum in 2013. Does this mean that you've been using an older version of BIAB that worked fine and now, after the 2016 installation, BIAB is not working?
Also, if you did own an older version, did you do the install of 2016 directly on top of the previous version or did you set it up in a new directoy/folder?
Regards,
Noel

Ian and Noah,
My version is "Plus Pak". Also, I had BIAB 2011 on a laptop which is no longer working. That is why I've been on the Forum since 2013. Unfortunately, the discs associated with 2011 BIAB were stolen. Therefore, 2016 is a new install for this PC. Thanks.

Ralph, If by "Plus Pak" you mean the Plus Pak at $129, then you need to contact PG Music and talk to experienced staff. As you can see at the below webpage, the Plus Pak must be installed over BIAB 2015 and not BIAB 2011. http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.packages.htm Contact phone numbers can be found under the "Support" tab at the top of this webpage. Regards, Noel

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!

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."
