Hi, I`ve downloaded the RealTracks Set 146 now. Installed it, pointed to my C drive and to the Realtracksfolder on another drive.
I rebuilt the stylepicker, but it doesn`t show up. The "What AddOns do I have" option also tells me I`m not having it. When I try to load it to an instrument slot manually, it shows up as N/A.
BUT:My Realtracksfolder has them; There is a folder called "Guitar, Electric, Soloist JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110" in there. So why can`t BIAB load that style?
Am I doing something wrong here?

I just went back and did style rebuild, looked at Pref > what do I have and the 146 shows up down below I dont have it. Went thru "re-install", then via styles found it, albeit the what do I have does not show 146 alive. Some kinda glitch ? Took the Style demo added JazzFunkGoovin Alto and got this. http://igig.mobi/FunkyGroove.mp3Not big into Jazz, but built a great song.

I reinstalled several times. Still don`t show up. Not in the style picker, not in the realtracks picker, not in the "What do I have".

bloc-head,
My father called me that a few times 50 years plus ago.
Yes I did receive an email. Not sure what Package 146 is part of.

I've re-installed RT143-148 about 3 times now, and no luck so far. I need a link to just RT 146.

Harvey, I just got my email with the link to RT 146 just a couple hours ago so I'm sure you will be getting your link shortly. There are only 2 files in the set 146 so far with more to follow per the PG email.

. I got the email and downloaded. Set 146 shows up in the style picker as 'not available" -(NA)
Check the box in the Style picker that says: "Show Realtracks that are NA" to see this.
I have gotten a few yellow messages that indicate the reason they are NA is not that the tracks are missing, but that the associated *.st files are missing. I don't think there is anything you can do about this. Just wait for the PG folks to get wind of this and they will provide a fix.
Give them a break - they have been losing sleep over the 2012 release, and it is the weekend over here. It wont take them long.

Carlos has been around here for a long time. And if you NEVER heard his stuff, done with band in a box, you really should check it out.
There still is confusion between styles and soloists, they show up too much together. They need a different font colour in something perceived as cutting edge graphics. That would be good for those who complain about the 'old' look all the time.
If someone could define a new look vrs. old look, we could have buttons on robots or something to play when we want to start the playback. That would be way better than going with the sex sells thing and clicking on playboy models to launch things. The latter is politically incorrect, just like my life. (Oh well.)

RealTracks 146 will come in 2 patches. The first was sent yesterday, and included RealTracks #1650 Guitar, Electric, Soloist JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110.
You need to have a folder called RealTracks\Guitar, Electric, Soloist JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110 as well as a file called c:\bb\rElGt238.st2. If you have those 2, then 1650 and 1651 will show up, if you don't it will show up as N/A.
The other 2 will come within a week.
Sorry about the delay. BTW, they are worth the wait!
Have Fun! Peter Gannon PG Music Inc.

Aha. This file is missing. Now the question is: HOW do I get this missing file, Peter?

Correction: rElGt238.st2 does indeed shows up, but it`s in the BB/Soloists folder. Does that make any differnce?
