Heya,
Wondering if there's any news that anyone's heard, or if there are any plans to bring BIAB to iPad as a standalone app?
As a musician that's constantly travelling and using my iPad for the majority of my music related needs, it'd be great to be able to have BIAB on the go, and not just on my computer at home - or have to carry a laptop with me as well. Right now I'm using iReal Pro which... I mean, it gets the basics done, but it's no BIAB.
Given that BIAB is now running on Apple Sillicon, sure, there'd be work to make the UI more iPadOS friendly, but the core engine and the really hard work is already done. At least, that's what I'd assume, as an iOS dev myself and a BIAB user.

I guessing about 0 chance, at least in the next 2-4 years.
IPAD/Iphone not really compelling hardware platforms for resource hungry apps like BIAB.
Rendering tracks is CPU and RAM. The ipad/phone just doesn't have it.... yet.
Perhaps one day IOS and MacOS will coalesce.
Perhaps.
Meantime I'm happy if PG Music focus on making the Mac OS product equal (or better) to the Win product. They've got their hands full.
I'm really hoping they don't wander back down the road of the IOS bbServer product again. That really didn't amount to very much. Would have rather spent the time/effort on a native Apple silicon version of the flagship. But thats just my opinion.
I've been wrong before. Might happen again..... today.

I think BiaB is too library and folder based to exist on an iPad. As Sir Geeze pointed out to much going on. I did try the iPad bb server thing a while back yes it worked, just not super well. A lot of work.
One suggestion is save the songs as stems and open then in iOS for GarageBand. Might just work for what you need.
Another idea is a Microsoft surface tablet. The upper levels of those are pretty powerful. Kind of expensive but if it is for your livelihood hey it could be great. Since they are touch controlled it could be a great setup.

Until BIAB becomes Apple Silicon Native, there is no chance that any of it can be ported to iPadOS.

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."
