All,
I've ordered the Everything pack, which includes an HD packed with all the realtracks and realdrums.

I have BiaB version 2007 installed, so I should first update it to 2010.

At the moment, BiaB is installed on my pc HD, on c:\bb.

How should I use the BiaB HD that will be shipped ? Should I copy all the content into the c:\bb folder ?
Or should I use the HD as external source, in order to use the realtracks ? In this case, how can I inform BiaB that it should get the realtracks from that external device ?

I'm a bit confused. Can someone shear a bit of light ?

Thanks in advance,
Sergio.

when you get the 2010 HD there is a read me file which gives you quite a few options. Read this first
2010 is not un upgrade per se. It is a brand new install with everything on it

Yes, by all means please take the time to locate the 'readmefirst' text file and read it first. Understand what the possibilities are before doing anything.

If you have a previous version of BB and have your own songs and settings there, etc. -- an easy way to retain everything you have already plus add the new is to simply install BB right overtop of the old version in the same folder. It will not overwrite your own songs that are there, or previous add-ons or extra styles, etc. and it will also retain your familiar settings for you.

Okay to install "just" the bb program to your internal hard drive, pointing the RealDrums and RealTracks to the new external drive. Read about that in the readmefirst file.

If more people would read the 'readmefirst' file first, and pay heed, there would be a lot less posts here with problems that did not need to be experienced...

Ok, thanks. The package is not yet there, I did not know that there's a readme file, that's why I asked.
