Need to enter a medley of Patriotic songs for an up-coming show. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine's, etc. Are there any Marching Band styles in BIAB. I can't seem to be able to find any. I do remember someone looking here for a Marching Band style but that was a long time ago.

Turn your Stylepicker filters off, set it for ALL styles. then hit the Search button and type in "March". Use the Alt-G to toggle through the found styles, I think there are two that are available for military March stuff. Others have to do with Wedding Marches and such.

BUT -- Just looked into my gig folders for my own version of the Armed Forces Medley and found that I've chosen the style, Z3ETHNIC.STY for this one. Works well, especially for those playing electric pianos or guitars along with this number.

PM me if you want the songfile in full...

OK Mac,

Thanks. Not bad but not good either. I hope they come out with better Marching styles soon.

Hey there.

It sounds a bit hokey but PADDY.STY worked OK for a song I wrote for my buddy in the Canadian Forces.
I think it is MIDI, but it gave that military march sensation.
Hope it works for you.

Hi T2T

Thanks for chipping in, and your input is appreciated, but you just answered a post that hasn't been active since 2009. I'm kinda guessing that the O/P would have sorted this out by now. wink

Regardless, your efforts are noted. smile

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."
