When I ordered RealDrums #24 everything seemed to go well, but the download page has no download link, and has the text:

error_invalid_order_data_response

Anyone know about this error?

Hopefully, this will be fixed Monday Morning.

If not, just call PG Music. You should probably call them anyway, to let them know about this.

By all means try it again today, I noticed that the PGMusic server for this forum was not responding several times during the day yesterday, don't know why.

If you can't download today, by all means contact PGMusic Sales directly, via email, or tollfree telephone line or live chat, they are very good at customer service.

Last night when I ordered Realtracks Set 169, I got the same thing (error_invalid_order_data_response). I sent an e-mail to Sales and today I got a valid download link. The download was sucessful and I was so anxious to try it out but the one track I really wanted (John Jarvis, Piano Soloing) was missing. It was that track that made me order that particular set and I am so disappointed to not find it included as this writeup which I copied from the BAIB page says that it was:

RealTracks Set 169 : Killer Country Soloing Video Demo
One of the best things about Country Music is the killer solos played by killer musicians, and now you can have even more of that in Band-in-a-Box with RealTracks Set 169! This set features four different instruments soloing over four completely different country grooves, ranging from slow ballads to up-tempo train beat. There is a fiddle soloing over a medium even 8ths country groove, a slow swinging 12-8 piano soloist, an up-tempo train beat resonator guitar soloist and a mandolin soloing over a slow country even 8ths ballad. Each one of these is a real Nashville studio musician, and no matter what chord progression you enter into Band-in-a-Box, these killer players will be able to solo over it! The superior stretching features in Band-in-a-Box enable you to use these RealTracks over a wide tempo range, so there are countless combinations of bands when you combine these soloists with other RealTracks styles. Each one is also equipped with RealCharts, so not only do you get these fantastic musicians playing over your songs, you can see exactly what they're playing in notation, TAB, on the on-screen piano keyboard, or on the on-screen guitar fretboard! There's something for everyone in RealTracks Set 169!
Note: This RealTracks Set requires Band-in-a-Box 2011 for Windows or higher.

This RealTrack Set is bundled with the following packages:

RealPAK Country Vol. 8 2012.5 PlusPAK UltraPlusPAK EverythingPAK Audiophile Edition

RealTracks in this Set:
Fiddle, Soloist CountryRob Ev 120 Solo Demo | Band Demo [ Artist: Rob Hajacos ]

Mandolin, Soloist CountryAndy Ev 085 Solo Demo | Band Demo [ Artist: Andy Leftwich ]

I have sent another e-mail to Rachael in sales, hoping something can be done about this.

Hi,

Quote:

It should be there. Check your RealTracks folder for this subfolder:
Piano, Acoustic, Soloist Country12-8John Sw 065

If you have 2012 (**not** 2012.5), and it's not appearing in the RealTracks Picker then you are most likely missing some support file required for it. This patch should help:

Thanks for giving this your attention! I had updated to 2012 (350) quite some time ago, but apparently that required file was still missing.
I checked Realband subfolders and that John J file was there but it is just not showing up in the style picker for some reason. I had done a list rebuild on the style picker but it still isn't getting it. Style picker shows all the other tracks on Set#169, just not that one.
I tried downloading that update once again just now but I got this message:
X Unable to execute file
C:\bb\bbw.exe
Create process failed; code 740
The requested operation requires elevation

Not being particularly computer savvy, I don't know what this means. What do I do now?

That error message would seem to be related to User Account Control, however I have no idea how installing the patch could make it happen. I would try a reboot. FYI you could likely run the program by right-clicking on it and selecting 'Run as admin' however that certainly shouldn't be necessary if everything is working properly.

If you are looking in the StylePicker for styles with that RealTrack, then _C128PNS.STY and _P128PNS.STY have it. Alternatively, just start with a .STY having no soloist, and add the RealTrack yourself via the RealTracks Picker (i.e. Right-click on Soloist track and select Add/Remove RealTracks).

Andrew,
Success! I downloaded the update patch again and this time it took. Re-installed the RealTracks Set#169 and did a rebuild list and now everything is up and working the way it should. By the way I love that Country Piano!!!!I've dreamed of having this sound to back up my old country songs for years. Thank you so much!
I got an e-mail from Will in which he told me that support tech had advised him that some new "stuff" had been added to that update patch just this morning. So whatever they did, it worked. Kudos for your entire staff for the way they work with your customers with such diligence and patience.

There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4).

And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
