Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if when you Video Render that any Audio that happens to be in the Band in a Box file is not rendered along with the instruments.
I have sent the following text to PG Music Support.
Would it be possible to add any Audio (that is in the file) to the Video Render (not to show it, but to hear it with the song)
I have a Band in a Box file with audio (me singing) and when I render to video the audio doesn’t play.
I think that would be good as you could upload your song to YouTube, or wherever, and showcase Band in a Box with your audio sounding along with it.
George

The videos include any audio that you normally hear in your song. If you render your song to an audio file, that would be the same audio as the video. So your own audio track should be included, as long as it is not muted in the mixer.
Do you hear your audio track when you play the song?
If you try rendering your song to a WAV file, do you hear your audio track in the WAV file?

Hi Blake,
I have tried your suggestions and this is the result.
The song file exports to wma file with audio - OK
The song file does not export to Video Render with audio - Fail
It does not show any errors.
The audio resides in the song file as a wav.
The audio is not mute.
I will send the file(s) to the support for you to check.

George, if not already undertaken, do check Help > Utilities > Display Log file of text messages
Note that the date order is latest to oldest.
Check for any messages in that file relating to video, rendering etc. This could also assist the Support team.

HI George Yes I get the same results ,  I notice that the audio track does not appear in the video render screen where you select what you want to render. So I guess that is why .  All other parts tracks are available even if they don’t contain video. As in the case if you just substituted video drums for non video drums in any style if it fits. You can have a video of the drummer playing but you still hear all the non video parts from the original style, in the finished video. But like you I see no way of including the audio track. Mike

I have a similar problem, despite the recommended version of Quick Time (7.7.1), BIAB report error and say QuickTime is not installed, then the audio is apparently re-rendered using an alternate method and get frozen, or sometimes it step to "Rendering video 1 of 1" and still that way forever, finally I have to close BIAB. the problem is present in windows xp (sp3) and the same in Windows 7 SP1. I hope that next build fix it.

On Windows 7, you should not need QuickTime. Have you installed the latest update patch for Band-in-a-Box 2018?
When it is stuck on "Rendering video 1 of 1" does the progress bar move at all, or is it stuck at zero percent?
Can you give an example name of the RealTrack you are trying to make a video out of?

Hi Blake,
Thank you for checking and fixing the problem, but it isn't fixed in 506 release 1, perhaps you mean the next update?

Hi Blake,
I can verify that the render to video now includs the audio in 2018 version 507.

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."
