I would like to have real tracks that feature vocies both male and female singing ooh and awes, doo-wops, and other non specific vocal phrases for chourses and bridges. I think it would add a nice touch to a song I would be performing on my steel pan by adding some extra human elements to songs with the possiblilty that in the feature if I do learn to sing and write a song, I could use them in an original tune.

Loops can often help with fill in parts such as oohs and awwwws, as well as some intros and endings. I would love to see PG incorporate intros and endings sets that can be used with like realtracks.

+1 for the oohs and ahhs

I would think it would fit perfectly as a rythm type instrument (akin to the organ sounds used in some of the bluesy type syles)

They'd fit in beautifully with any type of ballad, classical, Celtic etc....

It's been a popular request for some time now

Every year I'm hoping vocal backings realtracks or midi tracks will be included in the upgrade, but untill now in vain.
Maybe this time..........

Not to highjack this thread but you can take simple piano or string BIAB MIDI tracks and use a good sounding vocal synth to get excellent oohs, awes, etc.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Yes a vocal synth would be a good way now, you could use the BB Chord Output, as unless you have "Don't Transpose RealTracks" checked in Song Settings, you will get Barry White or a choir boy as it transposes.

PG need to add "Don't Transpose UserTracks"

You can see here http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=245885#Post245885
listen to the Love Again demo down the page.

BB Chord Output will also save in the Midi file "MID" File on Disk, Biab > File > Import > Melody from MIDI file > 9 only, then load the vocal VSTi in the Melody track.
In Realband you will see the BB Chord Output track.
You can transpose the octave of the BB Chord Output midi up or down to suite the range.

It's something the team should be working on as it's been asked for frequently over the years

I second this. Will be a great addition to RealTracks.

At the mean time, if I may share a free plugins featuring real singers that may suite your need:

I think it's a great companion to RealTracks. Perhaps someone can compose/design Usertrack from it in the future.

Happy Songwriting!

Now that I think about, I just started taking vocals lessons and I feel having these generic back up vocals would benefit us all in any style and make our vocals shine without having to pay backup singers.

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."
