Buon giorno,

mi diletto con Band-in-a-Box fin dalla versione 6.03. Tanto per rendere l'idea il primo manuale comprendeva le istruzioni per l'installazione con sistema operativo MS-DOS. Nel tempo ho acquistato gli aggiornamenti fino alla versione 2010 su supporto fisico (hard-disk esterno) che, dato il mio personale uso non professionale, ho trovato soddisfacente a sufficienza.
Ora, incuriosito e stimolato dalle novità introdotte, vorrei procedere con l'aggiornamento alla versione attuale, ma c'è un però che mi induce a chiedere consiglio qui. L'ultima volta che acquistai l'aggiornamento direttamente da PG Music, assieme al pacco mi vidi recapitare dal corriere un altro "pacco": la richiesta senza nessun preavviso all'atto della consegna di un ulteriore esborso in denaro pari a circa sessanta euro. Dopo essermi prodotto in svariate quanto misteriose ipotesi legate ai costi della logistica o alle tasse, alla fine tutto contento per l'acquisto effettuato mi misi, come si suol dire, il cuore in pace.
Ora però per me la questione rischia di riproporsi e perciò vorrei chiedere a chi di voi al quale è stata recentemente inoltrata una spedizione in Italia da parte di PG Music di informarmi cortesemente su come stanno andando le cose adesso, in sintesi: una vota effettuato l'acquisto on-line sul sito di PG Music, vi è poi stato chiesto dal corriere un'ulteriore somma? Se si, quanto?

Un cordiale saluto e grazie per l'attenzione

Ciao

purtroppo per noi in Italia i costi doganali sono sempre molto alti, ed a quanto ho capito sono una percentuale del valore dell'oggetto spedito come dichiarato dal venditore. In più, su questa somma così' determinata c'è l'onnipresente IVA, per cui ti lascio immaginare il costo finale.

In sintesi: se hai una connessione ADSL almeno "decente", ti conviene effettuare l'acquisto con la modalità "download", senza alcun HD esterno, in modo da non avere costi aggiuntivi.

Ciao e buona musica

Antonello

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."
