What else should I install? Hold on. Let's go back a step. On March 1st, you had 13 Styles missing. You included a screen capture showing exactly that. On March 3rd, you now have 1000 Styles missing. I suggest you redo all of the steps that you took up to March 1st, download and install the files that Andrew suggested, and then stop there. Have you performed a full rebuild of the Style picker? (I think this is a picnic issue): Here is your screen capture from March 1st showing 13 styles missing, not 1000.

If you buy the BIAB2024 Annual Update at the reduced price, you get only the NEW stuff. You need to install this into the same directory as the prior BIAB2023 inorder to have the OLD stuff.

OP swingbabymix Veteran S Joined: Sep 2021 Posts: 2,046	Originally Posted by MoultiPass hahaha. I don't want this either. But the installation did encounter a lot of problems. Let me tell you. You'll understand me. At first, I installed 2024 directly, and after rebuilding, the display is missing 13 styles. I started reinstalling. I installed 2023 and then 2024, and it still shows that I'm missing 13 styles. I don't know what to do, I went to reinstall 2023, then install 2023 V1013, then install 2024, and then nothing more. I thought that was strange, so I asked why, and finally got the answer that RT had been updated. So I reinstalled the new RT. Well, I thought that would eliminate the need to install 2023. So I installed the 2024 and 2024 upgrades. It turns out I'm missing 1,000 patterns. Then, I went to install 2023, then 2024, and finally it all came back. So, I now know that I still need to install 2023. Because in my logic, since it is called 2024, then 2023 and 2022 do not need to be installed, and it is found that it needs to be installed. So, why didn't I see these problems before, because I used to cover them directly. This time it was deleted and re-installed. So, why do I need to reinstall. Because my LOOP function has a problem and does not generate LOOP, someone told me that I need to reinstall. Does LOOP function properly after reinstallation? Not really. It still doesn't generate a LOOP, but sometimes it does. WIN10 20H2, AMD R4800H ,16G , 2T ,FOCUSRITE 2i4 MKII，Studio One,FL STUDIO

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."
