The Mac version of Band-in-a-Box is already close to the Windows version. This is something that's happened over the last few years. It has always had identical musical content, so musically sounded the same, this was just adding in some features that were missing.

About 5 years ago, the BiaB Mac version was signifcantly behind the Windows version. Since then, we have worked hard and made them close to equal*, and in some respects the Mac version is better**

* the Mac version was lacking some things that are now present, and identical to the Windows version, such as
- notation and lead sheet window
- audio edit window
- modern chord sheet window
- VST and AU plugins
- SFZ Sforzando synth and custom sounds
..... these are all the major functions added/improved over the last few years, and they are now identical on Mac and Windows
FYI, they are the same code base. Note that the content (Realtracks, styles, songs etc) have always been the same in Mac and Windows versions.

- the Mac version still lacks a piano roll window. This isn’t that popular on the Windows version, and we do plan to add it to Mac in future.

** Mac version is better than Windows version for plugins (simpler system with more features) and MIDI and audio drivers (one simple low latency system that works well, instead of Windows which has 3 systems MME,WAS,ASIO that work best in different interfaces/systems)


Have Fun!
