Thanks to Google Translate: "Currently, except for an error on my part, I cannot edit Real track in BIAB. currently I can edit midi in BIAB WISH Able to edit a Real track (cut .... etc) at least it works set chord (silence in a part of the compass ... etc) OUTCOME Being able to delete one or more parts of the compass that does not look good in the accompaniments and in the solos"
My response effort to help: "RealTracks are Audio recordings of real musicians. Many RealTracks have notation 'transcriptions' which closely resemble the musician's recording, but may not be perfectly accurate.
You can change RealTracks at specific bars to either silence the part or select a different instrument for any number of bars. Choose the bar where you wish to make the change and press Function Key <F5>. Hopefully this assists a little bit."

Puede guardar la pista en un archivo de rendimiento y luego moverla a la pista de audio para editarla. Luego puede volver a moverlo a la pista de rendimiento.
You can save the track to a Performance file then move it to the Audio track to edit it. Then you can move it back to Performance track.
Muchas gracias. Buen truco He pasado una pista de piano a wav Después la he abierto en edición de audio y la he modificado. Todo bien NO SE HACER el ultimo paso: volver el audio modificado por ejemplo a la pista de guitarra que esta libre ¿Me lo puede decir, por favor?
Translated: Thank you very much. Good trick I have passed a piano track to wav Later I have opened it in audio edition and I have modified it. All good I DON'T DO the last step: return the modified audio for example to the free guitar track Can you tell me, please?
Thank you

Esto ocurre: Cuando edito la pista (por ejemplo borrar un compás) y la devuelvo a la misma pista de donde la tomé, vuelve a sonar igual, con el compás sin borrar.
Pero si la devuelvo a una pista que no esté utilizada SÍ suena con el compás borrado.....¿?
Hello Thank you very much I do something wrong, I will repeat.
This happens: When I edit the track (for example erase a measure) and return it to the same track I took it from, it sounds the same again, with the measure not erased.
But if I return it to an unused track it DOES sound with the beat erased.....?
i will try again Thank you
No puedo hacer que funcione correctamente en 2020 ver724. La pista de batería no cambia de color a naranja. Después de eliminar las barras de la pista en la Edición de audio, la moví hacia atrás pero aún se reproduce. Lo mismo con las otras pistas.
I can't get it to work correctly in 2020 ver724. The Drums track does not change color to orange. After removing bars from the track in the Audio Edit I moved it back but still plays. The same with the other tracks.
Puede guardar la pista en un archivo de rendimiento y luego moverla a la pista de audio para editarla. Luego puede volver a moverlo a la pista de rendimiento.
You can save the track to a Performance file then move it to the Audio track to edit it. Then you can move it back to Performance track.
You can save the track to a Performance file then move it to the Audio track to edit it, but you can't move it back to the same Channel you converted to a Performance Track without completing additional steps because there's been two Performance Tracks created, an original performance of the track and an edited version of the track.
Because you converted the Channel to a Performance Track, the original RealTrack performance has automatically been saved to a Performance Track and your editing process results in creating an additional Performance Track in the same folder. When a Performance Track is created, a WAV (or WMA) file is automatically saved and a bt1 file is also created.
I can get your instructions to work if I unfreeze the track and regenerate the file rather than play it after the new, edited Performance Track has been moved back to the original Channel.
This issue is eliminated if rather than convert the track to a Performance Track, you either save the track to WAV or render it and import that audio and convert it to a first generation Performance Track ensuring there are no remnants remaining from the first Performance Track as you've described in your instructions.
When I create a Performance on drums it does not change to orange Artist, but when I create one with the other tracks it does change to orange Artist. When it "Moves" the Performance track _JAZFRED Drums.WAV to Audio track _JAZFRED.WAV _JAZFRED.bt1 back to Performance _JAZFRED Drums.WAV _JAZFRED.bt1
the beat file should be renamed also _JAZFRED Drums.WAV _JAZFRED Drums.bt1
and then loaded in the track (as you see the freeze is removed) so that track should play without having to open the session again. If you erase the track it says there is _JAZFRED Drums.WAV so one would think that when you Move the Audio back to Performance track it will play that. When you re-open the session then it create the beat file, makes the drum track orange and plays, but if you stop and play again it will go back to green. When I move the Bass back from Audio Edit to Performance track on Bass it turns orange and says "Artist" but don't play unless I re-open the session.
Cuando creo una interpretación en batería, no cambia a artista naranja, pero cuando creo una con las otras pistas, cambia a Artista naranja. Cuando "mueve" la pista de rendimiento _JAZFRED Drums.WAV a la pista de audio _JAZFRED.WAV _JAZFRED.bt1 volver al rendimiento _JAZFRED Drums.WAV _JAZFRED.bt1
el archivo beat también debe renombrarse _JAZFRED Drums.WAV _JAZFRED Drums.bt1
y luego se carga en la pista (como ve, se elimina el congelamiento) para que esa pista se reproduzca sin tener que abrir la sesión nuevamente. Si borras la pista, dice que hay _JAZFRED Drums.WAV entonces uno pensaría que cuando mueva el audio nuevamente a la pista de rendimiento, reproducirá eso. Cuando vuelve a abrir la sesión, crea el archivo de ritmo, hace que la pista de batería sea naranja y se reproduce, pero si se detiene y vuelve a tocar, volverá a verde. Cuando muevo el bajo de Audio Edit a la pista Performance en Bass, se vuelve naranja y dice "Artista", pero no toco a menos que vuelva a abrir la sesión.
I get similar results for drum track but I only have to regenerate for the edited Performance Track to play correctly.
One thing you don't mention but I do when I'm using Performance Tracks is I Save the project and update the Saves through the various levels of the conversion. When I reopen the file, the track shows -Realdrums but the Performance Track plays correctly activating both Play and Play/Generate buttons.
It's a simple fix to Play the Performance track once it is "Moved" from the Audio track, once they do that users shouldn't have any issues. It's like if I collab with artist to record a bass track because as you know the bass RTs don't always play the correct notes for more complex chords and I import that artist track into Biab and "Move" it to the Bass track, when I listen to it it will be still playing the wrong notes, so we don't need that confusion, we just need it to play when "Moved" there and the drum track to stay orange Artist.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). 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). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). 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.
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. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! 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.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
