I sincerely hope they don't, enough to work with getting to grips with the GUI in 2014, and as well as that, will make the upgrade a little cheaper at end of year.

On a slightly different note I'm still waiting for the download that was promised "in just a few days time" for the offline demo files of realtracks, and that is almost two months ago.

I would really like just a "100 new styles special" mid-year and the new features at the end of the year..

(even 50 new one will do...)

Mal, Fingers crossed? It could happen. I have a few complaints as of 2014. None have been addressed. Such as: way too many access violations and they removed the ability to access bar numbers in the [Bar Settings/Print Summary] feature. Shame on them.------Leon

Leon:

I agree with Peter on the Bar Numbers.
I just printed out a song yesterday and put the bar numbers where I wanted them, i.e. at the beginning of every row.

You can get to that setting from the "Lead Sheet Options" window" > "Show Bar #s".

I've never gotten an "Access Violation" with 2014.
If you document it and contact Support they can likely help you out.

Good luck!

Frankly, I don't care too much if a year.5 doesn't have too many new features. This is a good opportunity to implement the 'User Wishlist' features. The ones Users have continually requested, including improvements and functions that users really want to have available. There are many worthwhile requests in the Wishlist items

It would be great if the yyyy.5 version resolved some of these requests

(Hope PGM think along the same lines)

I'm wondering if the .5 release for the PC version of BIAB was scrapped in favor of the full release for the Mac.

That would make more sense to me.
After the release of the full PC version before Christmas, PGMusic starts on the upgrade to the Mac version in time for release for Fathers Day.

Then back to work on the PC version.
Seems fair to me <grin>.

Well I finally purchased Cubase 7.5. I wanted it for features not available in most other DAW's, like Chord track, TrackVersions and improved scoring. I was pleased at how well it performs, (I was an ardent hater of the dongle), I lost track, ('scuse pun), at the number of tracks I had going in a project ...... no latency issues, umpteen VSTi's and effects galore. No memory problems whatsoever.

Now just imagine BB 64 bit .... what a field day eh?

Peter Gannon, O.K., here is the deal: In the chord mode, (Right click on any bar), choose bar settings, select the chorus if using more than one, make a change, as in [Mute, Back to normal, Change by - or +, Fade(per bar),Louder(per bar). Now ,after all of the changes are made, or any time from start to finish, all of the above information is immediately available by (right clicking any bar/bar settings/print report. Beginning in 2013 it worked and was one of the best features offered to some one using BIAB to create and or copy or download pre-arranged files, as I do. Bless you. With all of the improvements made in the 2014 version (and there were many), this feature shows some of the changes, but not the bar numbers. So shame on you. The (Access Violations) would be for me, the biggest problem encountered since my first purchase in 2010.5 Everything pak. But that is another story. Otherwise, it is what it is.-----Leon

Leon:

- I opened one of my songs that I knew had some changes similar to your description above.
- I right clicked on another bar and made another change
- Clicked on OK to close the "Edit Settings for Current Bar.." window
- Right clicked on a different bar to open that window again
- Clicked on Print Summary
- I get a "FSReport.txt - Notepad" window

In that window I see all the changes within my song, and at which bar the changes took place.

You mentioned

"and they removed the ability to access bar numbers in the [Bar Settings/Print Summary] feature."

Do you mean that the report you get doesn't show the bar numbers, or that you used to be able to (say) click on the bar number in the report, and make changes there?

Thanks!

Lloyd, Thanks for taking an interest. I do get a summary report as I should, but it does not contain bar numbers as it did in 2013. I have a (Screen Shot of a report) saved, I do not know how or where to send it.-----Leon

Leon:

Not to worry.
We were all beginners at one time.
You have my email address in the PM I sent you.
Just send me a "reply" to that message and then I'll have yours.

From there we can get this straightened out.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply you were a beginner.
I guess I meant, at some point we are all "dummies" on some function of BIAB.

I'll check out the info you sent and get back to you.

Thanks!
