We’re proud to offer Band-in-a-Box 2015 for Windows! This version includes over 50 great new features and enhancements.
We’ve enhanced the GUI for an improved look and feel, and many new time-saving features have been added like automatic track labels and video tutorial-help buttons. We’ve added direct support for 64-bit VST plugins (using jBridge available from us for only $10 during the special). Load, play, view and slow down videos that you have already downloaded from YouTube or elsewhere into the Band-in-a-Box Video window to extract the audio and slow it down great audio quality. And much more!

With Band-in-a-Box 2015, we’ve released an amazing amount of new Add-ons. Along with the 101 New RealTracks and 1,000 Modern Loops with Techno, Dubstep, Worldbeat and Top 40, we also have 49 Bonus UNRELEASED RealTracks, 15 MIDI SuperTracks, 46 Artist Performances and 20 Instrumental Studies for Guitar. These Add-ons are only available in our special Bonus PAKs when you purchase Band-in-a-Box before December 31, 2014 (** now extended to January 15, 2015 **).

I'm new to VST plugins. I have a few programs that use VST's. Does that mean we could replace drums in BIAB with a VST program like EZdrummer? Or is it only VST effects like reverb, compression etc that will work?

Hi Paul,

With Band-in-a-Box, if you set the drums track to MIDI you will be able to use EZ drummer.

You can program the drums in Band-in-a-Box either through the notation window or the piano roll and it will send the MIDI data to youVST and play back the drums with EZdrummer.

Having bought the EverythingPak last year, would I have to buy it again this year to get all the upgrades? Seems like I'm paying for stuff I already have if I do that!

If you have the EverythingPAK from last year, the PlusPAK (on DVD and/or download) will keep you up-to-date with everything that's new. You can install that onto your existing hard drive. If you want another hard drive (with full 2015 pre-installed), then you would get the EverythingPAK upgrade from 2014.

In the comparison chart for BiaB packages for different years, for example in the UlltraPlusPack at http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.packages.ultra.htm
the table shows a number of changes from 2014 to 2015.

For example the RealTracks went from 1,500+ to 1,800+. The Loops went from 21 to 1,021. The Midi SuperTracks went from 96 to 150. The Midi Styles went from 1,600+ to 2,000+.

Depending on the details of the + there should be roughly 400ish new midi styles. Where do I find them???

Are any of the basic bugs fixed this year, like some of the unnatural and inconsistent holds, pushes and endings?


Or is it more and more gigabytes of new Real Tracks?

Obviously BIAB does a lot, but the basics can come along and make a song completely unusable.

I hope this is the right place for this.

I upgraded from 2012.5 and I am extremely happy with both BIAB and RB. RB is significantly more stable than before. Both BIAB and RB are easy to use, with basic tasks improved and streamlined. The realtracks work smoothly, and there is significant choice now.

Overall, the upgrade was excellent value to me. I'm having fun again.
