We need more info please. Which part of Biab is listing 0? Have you tried re-building your style list? Maybe biab needs to find the file path again or something.

When I click on Style, all the Styles show up, & right under RT 154, it says TexasBluesRock-Ev8ths (0).. Running 2012. Windows 7..

I have the same problem. It's in the Style Picker window at the bottom of the New RTs list on the left side. I think it's supposed to be a part of the "Bonus 10 Pak". Read Me for the Pak says it needs a separate install, but there is no install program for it (like there is for Loops). Was going to ask the same question or email support, but never got around to it. Had to Christmas shop.

Hi Ralph,
To install the Realtrack, all you need to do is close down BIAB and RB and then double-click on the downloaded Realtrack file. The file I downloaded was self-executing and self-installing.
Hope this helps, Noel

Hi Johnny, I don't follow what you mean. I have all the Realtracks and there is no RT 154. There is a RT set #154 but this is a Brent Mason set. The Texas Blues that I have are part of set #140. Are you meaning when you click on the Texas Blues / Rock / Shuffle the "New Real Styles" section of style-picker (as shown below in the image)?  When I click on the Texas #140 as shown, I get the following five styles.  Hope this helps, Noel

I have the same thing - show 0 in the Style picker although the plus 10 pak says it should include 6 new styles. I have some RT for Texas blues, so maybe the 'styles' mentioned in the Plus 10 pak readme is referencing the RT styles rather than actual Styles as BIAB uses the word. Kind of a mystery.

I have the bonus pack installed and I show four instead of six. They're listed under TexasBluesRock and are different than the five I have listed under RT140(TaxasBlzRock).

Hi Johnny, Thanks for the email. I see what you mean, now. Where I have ...  ... you have ...  Have you run and installed the "realtracksbonus1.exe" file that came with the Bonus 10 Pak? This is where those particular Realtracks were obtained. Also, have you installed the build #349 update? This included some style files. Whether or not these are the four missing files, I don't know. It's worth a try, though, if you haven't installed this update. Regards, Noel

Exact filename for the 10-pack installer here is, "2012_10pak_bb_addons.exe" and for the 20 is "2012_20pak_bb_addons.exe"
Try using Windows Search/Find to see if they are on the disks somewhere.

Couldn't find any of the installers mentioned above on my USB drive. However, I see what my problem is. I never noticed an email from PGMusic with a link to download the Bonus Set that came just before my order acknowledgment email. I ordered on Dec 5 and maybe the Bonus Set wasn't on the USB drives at that time. I tried the link and it's dead now, so I requested a new one.
Thanks for helping solve the problem.

I love happy endings. As I age I cry even over minor stuff like this. I think it happens when your third gets flattened.
Now if you need an Ab min, drop a piano down a mine shaft.

Or I read somewhere a B@njer into a Trash bin. lol... Well I'm not the brightest bulb in a string of lights, & I installed everything right, but this kept missing, & it actually made me feel good to find out that it weren't sumptin I did.. I do have another minor (pun intended) problem, & I guess I should start another thread on it, but in my Other Styles Found I have 98 Styles, bu it looks like 49 are duplicated..

Yep, glad you got it sorted!
Did you come up with six styles or four like the rest of us? I guess it could be an error in the ad. Looking at the four styles, it looks like what we got is one rhythm, one Brent solo, one Sol solo, and one Brent and Sol trading solos. That may be all that was intended, and if so I'm not going to cry over it lol. I'm really lovin' this upgrade. The direct input files alone are a lot of gravy for me because it makes the tracks more usable.
.....Get ready to rock your socks off with our TexasBluesRock – Straight-8ths RealTracks Set! This set features 6 RealTracks styles forming a full rockin’ even-8ths blues band of electric bass, 2 electric guitars & drums, along with two separate and unique electric guitar soloists recorded by Nashville legend Brent Mason and blues prodigy Sol Philcox.....
