As I have problem with realband, I have tried to re-install everything.
I have the full Biab2009 pack with all the styles, realtracks and realdrums.

I have:
1) (Using install-unistall from Vista64 Control panel) unistalled Bandinabox.
2) I have erased the few remaining files in the BB folder except for RealTraks and Drums (and their 2 Demo Folders)
3) I have re-installed Biab2009
4) updated to build 282.
5) pressed Rebuild in the stylepicker

now I have:
0 RealStyles
0 Styles with Realtracks
80 Styles with Realdrums style
there is NO filter in the Stylepicker
Enable realtracks is checkedin the preferences

Hello Sergino,

The RealStyles are installed with the RealTracks, and are located in the bb folder. Uninstalling the Band-in-a-Box program in Add/Remove Programs would not have removed them, but if you had deleted all the files in the bb folder, that would have done it.

Hi Sergino,

Have you tried installing one of the disks of RealTracks and starting BIAB to see if it registered?

If you have installed to c:\bb then BB will look in c:\bb\RealTracks and c:\bb\Drums for your RealTracks and RealDrums.
If they are not there, then you will need to tell BB where they are...

[menu] Edit-Prefs-RealTracks settings (and then type in the location of your realTracks folder e.g. h:\MyMusic\RealTracks

[menu] Edit-Prefs-RealDrums settings (and then type in the location of your realDrums folder e.g. h:\MyMusic\Drums


Have Fun!

If the .STY and .ST2/.STX files aren't located in the recycle bin or anywhere else on your hard drive, you will need to reinstall the RealTracks. First, you could try a search for *_.sty or *.stx just to make sure you don't have them in another folder for some reason.

They still where in the dustbin.
I have restored them and now I have:

All Style: 1753
Other Style Found:28

RealStyles: 101
Styles with Realtracks:(all) 523
Styles with Realdrums style: 81

Is it correct?

Thanks
Sergino
