Welcome back! I hope your absence was only because you've been "busy" and not something more serious. I always enjoyed your posts in the past and look forward to more of them now.
There have been so many improvements and additions to the programs, styles, and RealTracks, you are going to have a lot of fun absorbing it all.
Again, welcome back!

Richard, It's good to see you back in the forums again! Version 2018 is incredible software! By jumping from 2012.5 to the current version, I'm pretty sure that you'll be amazed. Enjoy! Noel

I didn’t upgrade to Windows 10 because I have $400 worth of perfectly good—but unusable—interfaces from the last two changes, because the mfrs failed to write new drivers. It might have been shortsighted, but I didn’t feel like paying for new hardware. (Present device is PreSonus AudioBox USB from 2010.)

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."
