Rebuilding the Realtracks in the Picker Dialog doesn't seem to help. How do I make them visible?
What am I doing wrong?

I think this is a bug. I've already talked to support because my new UltraPlusPak tells me (in the "MIDI-What add-ons do I have" window) that I am missing every single RealTrack except for the very first set. In other words, I'm supposedly missing sets 2 - 205.

However, when I open the RealTracks picker I see all the sets listed and can select and load them. It's very difficult to check manually in the BIAB folder because the RealTracks are listed by instruments alphabetically, not by set numbers, so I went through them using this list:

http://www.pgmusic.com/realtracks.all.php?os=mac

As far as I can tell, I have them all, but the "MIDI-What add-ons do I have" window doesn't agree and rebuilding my RealTracks picker does nothing.

You should contact support directly if you haven't done so already.

There is a bug in that what ad dons do I have dialog, that only happens on the USB hard drive, or when the oath name is long. It will be fixed in the next free patch. But for now, just ignore reports on that what ad dons dialog that I have, and look in the real tracks picker to see what Realtracks you have or don't have. Checking the "show n/a Realtracks" in the Realtracks picker will show what ones you don't have.

I would try that again. It isn't going to play a N/A RealTrack. You may be hearing something else, like a different RealTrack that has been substituted.

perhaps i'm looking or doing this correctly:

in the bottom left hand corner of real tracks picker i checked the box "show real tracks that are N/A" to be on

then in the listing section in the right hand side there are the headings "# NA set"

so if there are N/A real tracks available there would be nothing in those 2 columns ?

>>> if there are N/A real tracks available there would be nothing in those 2 columns ?

If there are N/A RealTracks, they will be named "N/A" at the beginning of the name. And if you click on the "NA" column, they will be sorted with the NA at the top.

There is also a "### items in list" that shows up at the bottom, so if the total changes, you could infer how many RT that are NA.

Sorry MR PG, Mr Magoo was looking at REAL DRUMS that appear to be missing some REAL DRUMS. The guy really needs glasses.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe

This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
