Thanks for the request. Can you put in some youtube samples of the types of grooves/styles you had in mind?

Tobin, one example of a cut-time style would be almost any samba. BIAB expects sambas to be written in the range of quarter note = 190. I hear them instead at half-note = 80 to 114 or so. Most sambas in sheet music and fakebooks, including songs by the original Brazilian composers, are written in cut time.

For others reading, the easiest way to determine is to ask yourself, how do you count off a song? If it's 1 & 2 & 1, 2 then it's a samba in cut time. If you feel the beat as 1,2 1,2 (instead of 1,2 1234) then it's cut time.

Why is this important, when BIAB can just adjust tempos from 190 to 95? Two reasons: 1) It looks wrong, and 2) although you can adjust RealTracks to half or double time when needed, there is no such setting (to my knowledge) for RealDrums.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the clarification. So presumably the best solution would be to add the half-time/double-time feature to the RealDrums, yes?

thanks,
Tobin

Yes! Exactly.

Please note, I'm not speaking for the original poster Islansoul. He/she may have some other intent.

And if I could wave my magic wand and get all that I want, I would like the ability to use that half/double time option after pressing F5. Currently, I can change to another RealTrack within the song, but the picker does not give me these options.

Then do the same for RealDrums.

Now THAT would be powerful.

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."
