Hi Folks,
Just wondering does the BONUS RealTracks John Jarvis Country Piano not come on the standard ultra pak 2012 and only way to get it is to buy the Bonus 20 pak at $25?
Thanks
Martin

Yes, there are bonus RealTracks sets (aside from the 101 new ones), and the only way to get them is:
In the 10 PAK bonus(free with upgrade) there is the Blues bonus set (Brent Mason, Sol Philcox, even 8ths)
In the 20 PAK upgrade, $25, there is the John Jarvis Country Piano set. This is separate from the John Jarvis Rock piano set that comes with the 101 new RealTracks.
Have Fun!

Peter... I ordered the Ultrapak upgrade from BIAB 2011 last night, but didn't order the Bonus 20 pack option for $25. After seeing more detail on what's included, can I still seperately order the extra Bonus Pack?

I am thinking of upgrading very soon, but I would like to see a demo of the country piano in the bonus pak for $25 as this particular realtrack is the only reason I would buy the bonus pak.
I know its very early days yet for 2012 but just wondering if PGMusic will make a demo available of the country piano realtrack?
Thanks
Regards
Jan

I downloaded them yesterday, and Wow! I have tossed them in a few songs already, and they bring the songs to life.

Jan, I'm a pianist and in spite of my username I've done quite a bit of Nashville piano and this guy is good, I was playing with his RT's last night. These tracks really work well with country/rock stuff.

I know its very early days yet for 2012 but just wondering if PGMusic will make a demo available of the country piano realtrack? Right, we don't have the official demos page with these demos, but I've posted links to samples below. AVaialble only in the Bonus-20 Pak ($25 when purchased with a Band-in-a-Box upgrade or first-tome purchase during the month of December 2011 only). Note: If you ordered the upgrade or program, and didn't order the bonus 25-Pak, you can still do that anytime during December 2011. Just email sales@pgmusic.com (or chat or phone) and request the 25-Pak. 11. Unreleased - RealTracks Bonus Set 2: John Jarvis Country Piano Only available in the Bonus 20-PAK until December 31, 2011! Nashville piano legend John Jarvis returns with a collection of country piano styles! This set features 3 RealTracks styles, including : 1. Slow country ballad Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryBalladJohn Ev 065 http://64.40.99.154/pgfiles/audio/realtracksdemos/1928band.m4aThe country ballad style works great with a full rhythm section, and also sounds beautiful as a solo-accompaniment style, and there are Band-in-a-Box RealStyles that treat it in both ways. 2. a honky-tonk style Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm HonkyTonkJohn Ev 120 http://64.40.99.154/pgfiles/audio/realtracksdemos/1932band.m4aThe honky-tonk style is a raucous even-8ths groove with lots of rockin’, bluesy licks 3. and an up-tempo train-beat groove. Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm TrainBeatJohn Ev 130 http://64.40.99.154/pgfiles/audio/realtracksdemos/1933band.m4a . The train-beat is a 16th-based groove that chugs along! Every one of these styles is equipped with RealCharts, making them essential tools for piano players who want to learn. Simply slow it down and play along while watching in notation or on the on-screen piano keyboard, and gradually speed it up until you’ve got these killer licks under your belt!
Have Fun!

Hi Peter, so we can actually email & order the $25 pak ? I sent a message yesterdy thru Live Help ( after I realized I should have ordered the pak ) & received an email back telling me I'd have to phone & order it. Unfortunately I'm in Australia, phone call might cost me more than the pak, apart from which, time differences can be messy. One thing at least, it might teach me to read up before ordering. haahaa Quote:

Hi Peter, thank you. I emailed sales, they got back to me immediately. Overnight I received my download. Brilliant. For me, the Jarvis Country Piano was worth buying the Bonus Pak 20. best wishes Rikki Quote:
