I have ordered and I'm waiting on my hard drive to arrive. When it gets here I want to install onto a laptop and run it from the HD. Will I need to u/l and install each of my xtra paks to get it all to work right?

Yes. The XtraPAKs are add-ons and are not part of the normal UltraPAK or Audiophile hard drive content.

Presuming 'u/l' refers to downloading, yes, unless you have already downloaded and saved the distribution files, you would need to download and install any updates.

I, as well, would like to upgrade to the 2022 upgrade plus Ultra Pak. I will download and install all the files that come with the upgrade and Ultra Pak. Do I need to re-install any of my previous downloads: 2021 Bonus 49 Pak, 2021 Bonus 0-PAK (Windows), 2020 Bonus 0-PAK, MultiStyles PAK 1, any of the RealTracks Held Chords and Loops, Pro RealTracks, Mega RealTracks, RealDrums Set, that are already installed. I'm thinking after reading your answers to the original post, that I should reinstall the Paks. I'm looking for clarification on existing Real and Midi tracks.

Thanks in advance,

Steve McDonald

Steve, no. As long as you install the 2022 upgrade over your existing BIAB, that’s all you need to do.

I keep the installs of my bonus Paks only in the event I had to go back to my first full install and reconstruct. Even keeping those isn’t required, because I could always get them from my account at PG Music. As long as you buy from them, they have a record of all you have purchased and you can get those files again.

But the short answer is still No.
