I'm more interested in their updating "BIAB for iPad" to make it an even more useful app to use on our music stands. Top of the list would be the ability to slide to the next song in a folder.
Cheers!

Can I tell? yeah
Is it one of the ones I used today? No
For the record I commented out HTML, CSS, C*, ASP and JS today (that I can think of off the top of my head).
Compiled a couple web apps in Visual Studio, and also spent a little time with MVC, so it was a fun and busy day, but not a ";" day.
And I'm really tired of seeing Lorem Ipsum .. in anything.

Maybe I should say a few things on this 2013.5 forum before it goes down in history. I can't really get involved with the conversation too much since I don't have Band in a Box yet. I am looking forward to writing some great songs and producing some hopefully impressive songs for some online digital albums with it. My skills as a guitar player are limited. So I know with this program I can finally do some great things. My albums might not be grammy award winning in quality with it but I think I can do something great with it. At least it will showcase my talent. Wow I will be great!
I will buy the hard drive version. Why would anyone want to get anything other than the wave files for the real tracks? Don't they want to produce their music in the best quality possible? What is it about 700 dollars? I am sure I will get that value out of all their studio recordings. I don't think they will sound bad. Sure some of the recordings might have some unwanted voices or something that isn't wanted. Hopefully they will try harder with that in the future to make sure they have higher quality real tracks. But I am sure it is far and few between so that isn't going to scare me off. I think this is the only program in the world like this. This is the best you can get. And even if someone else comes out with something I think they will try even harder to be even better. WOW!!

"Why would anyone want to get anything other than the wave files for the real tracks? Don't they want to produce their music in the best quality possible?"
It is often said here; get the best version you can afford. It pays off in the long run.
"Sure some of the recordings might have some unwanted voices or something that isn't wanted."
Show me a 'live' track that doesn't .. PGMusic took it to the next level with Realtracks.

I agree you may hear a little bit of noise occasionally in a RealTrack, but keep in mind if it really is an error, we can report it. On some tracks, noise is right, and desirable, like fret noise. Years ago, I sent in a sound file of a door squeaking in the background of a bass track. PG Music acknowledged it and the fix was released in the next update.

I am also looking forward to heisting chord progressions from my favorite Standards from Sinatra and many more. As you know you can't copyright the chord progression. So it is like a template to writing a great song. Better than the collection of country songs I wrote 20 years back.
So I guess they have never missed a Christmas release of this program right? Well now I am down to owing about 80 bucks on my credit card. So if I save up 300 dollars for it then hit my credit card for only 400 to get the Christmas hard drive I will be set for a long time. I am getting in on this at the right time.
I guess I will be getting all of the real tracks from the previous years at once. I am getting a bargain then. Is this usually available early in December? Or close to Christmas or something? We have all November to wait for this and then December will be here. Let me know when it usually is out. Thank you

Hi SlyRuby
Thanks for your enthusiasm. One thing I can say: "we all hope there's a release in time for Christmas"
Ultimately, PG Music will only provide the next release what they are satisfied it is ready to deliver to the world stage, and satisfactorily undergone exhaustive preliminary testing.
We just have to be patient. But if I can take a guess, it will be worth waiting for!
