When will the release date be? Generally it is released in about the first week of December. Nobody knows for certain at this stage, except for relying on historical data.

I can't help but look forward to the improvements in 2024, including support for VST3, improved compatibility between real audio and MIDI, and the introduction of AI technology.

Have you been given some "insider tips" that none of us know about ? Usually, the beta testers find ways of leaking the goodies. I've not heard anything so am not as confident as some that we'll see BIAB 2024 for Windows before the new year. BIAB for the Mac generally drops sometime between March and September following the Windows release.

I don't care when it comes out. Lets not rush them. Let them get as many bugs out as possible. Peter indicated some suggestions are being applied so if it is a major change then PGM take your time to debug.

In the years I have been using BiaB, I have never identified any information of a future release being published anywhere, except for statements that PG Music themselves might make.

Really? I haven’t noticed that. “Usually”? Do you have examples you can cite? ...We are hoping to address that with years release. Hopefully this will be what you’re looking for. There have been lots of great suggestions, from those in this thread and on the forum, and we hope that we have incorporated many of them.

Musocity, what were you trying to accomplish by quoting me out of context and making it appear as if I said beta testers leak news? And do you consider Peter Gannon a beta tester?

I'm pleased that you clarified the 'funny' side of your perspective even though it is not amusing at all. I genuinely doubt that anyone other than PG Music staff have ever publicized anything in advance of official release statements. That being said, I really think we should all watch this space. Something must surely be getting close by now ?

Well, 2024 is now available.
I still do not appreciate being quoted in such a manner as to make it look like I said the opposite of what I actually said.

Do you have examples you can cite? It is your quote ! you wanted someone to cite times when things were leaked, they could be down the bar having one too many to drink or in a pm. I can read between lines of beta testers as what is being said, I don't need no examples.

Musocity, I think the following line is the line of concern. It was written by Mike, but in your quoted texts had apparently been attributed to Matt. I imagine that the Beta testers are sworn to secrecy, so the apparent attribution may well be awkward. Usually, the beta testers find ways of leaking the goodies... To me the Beta testers seem pretty leak-proof.

Gordon is correct.
I’ve been a beta tester for many companies for many decades. Yes, beta testers are always sworn to secrecy. I took Mike’s slam on their integrity seriously and asked for examples. I’ve heard none cited in response. Then I was quoted out of context and in a faulty way by Musocity to make it appear I was the one who made the slam. I could not let that pass unchallenged, either.

Don't worry Matt.
I think he was just referring to PG's discussions, after dark, when he is available to consider certain projects, like Vst3 for example. No one has questioned your integrity.

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."
