Hello,
I have a very old (like version 10 old!) BBiaB which I inherited and played with a bit a few years ago. Recently I dusted it off to create a drum track, but found I couldn't turn off any of the other instruments. It was all or nothing.
Would a newer version of BBiaB allow me to JUST have a drum track? Or to solo out any other instrument for exporting?
I'd try myself but I did not see a demo version anywhere.

Hi dsbw. Welcome to the forums. To answer your questions, "Yes, instruments (including drums) can be soloed in BIAB 2015 and can be individually exported." I don't know BIAB 10 but it seems unusual that it's not possible to mute the instruments you don't want to hear. That being said, the changes since BIAB 10 are mind-blowing. These days, in addition to midi (which is what you'd have on BIAB 10), we have Realtracks and Realdrums. These are live recordings of some of the world's top class musicians and they're available to us to use to create backings. It is so very easy to create musical backings that sound outstanding! Just like in the old days, all a user needs to do is to type in a chord progression, generate the song and BIAB creates a backing. If you have a listen to some of the songs on Soundcloud (the link is in my signature), I think you'll be impressed with what BIAB can do these days. Also, the below link will take you to a webpage that has demos of all the different Realtracks so that you can listen to what's available. http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.realtracks.htmLastly, PG Music does not have a demo of the latest version of the program because it is so big. If you purchase a copy, though, there is a 30-day money back guarantee should you decide that you'd like to return it. (If I remember correctly, all you need do is to cover the freight. It would pay to check this with PG Music.) Hope this helps, Noel

Thank you, Noel, that was quite helpful! And, yeah, I'd imagine there'd be some changes in the past 15 years.  I had one particular small project in mind, is why I was trying to use the old one. I'll need the new one soon enough, I s'pose. Thanks again!

You can also do what I do.
Compose the song/tune in BB and then open it in Real Band.
In Real Band, the tracks are displayed and you can select any of them for a quick and easy export. You can also change multiple aspects of a given track easily or render it again. You can also add other instruments that are NOT in the basic BB style. For example, if you are doing a rock style in BB and decide you want a fiddle, mandolin, and a dobro, Real Band lets you add them in a snap.

I do not think so. I see nothing called "RealBand" or "Real Band" anywhere.

Version 10 of BIAB dates back to 2001. RealBand was certainly not included (it was released first in 2008).
Version 2010 of BIAB, if that's what you have, is from 2010 and DID have RealBand.

In version 10, one thing you can do is just right click on each of the instrument radio buttons listed at the top to mute that instrument (basically mute everything except the drums, and you will only hear the drums).
Another thing you can do is set the volume of each non-drum track to zero.
Another thing you can do is to select "File, Save with Patches" and in the dialog box that comes up, uncheck all the tracks except Drums under the "On?" checkbox. Save your file and only the drums will play.
Hope that helps.

You could also update to the newest version to get Real Band and the new stuff that has been added since your version was new. I like the option of upgrading since that gives you Real Band and that's where you can create some really interesting tracks like steel guitar, fiddle, dobro, strings, cello, piano's, basses, guitars, well beyond what BB will give you.
Or.... get a simple DAW like Cakewalk's Music Creator and import the tracks from BB & RB to it and then add as many more live tracks as you need.
Haha... don't knock XP.... my studio DAW runs XP pro. I'm kinda backed into a corner now as fewer and fewer companies are no longer making things in 32 bit. But my DAW and the software it runs are rock solid....

XP was probably MS's best OS. I mean, out of the box, it was stable. I had Win7 lock up my hardware due to Flash of all things.
I did find a way to mute the tracks in BB10, thanks, but I went ahead and got BB2015 anyway.
What I want to do is use BB to generate tracks, then replace those tracks with me playing. I have not figured this out yet. (I'd say I'm disappointed but I know it's my ignorance, not the program's capability, which is pretty impressive.)

That is exactly what I do. I usually only keep the BiaB drum track and replace everything else with either myself and/or others playing. You may want to check out my songs in the user showcase forum. But that is impossible to do with BiaB, you need a DAW. If you do not have a DAW not to worry as BiaB comes with Realband and that is a very good DAW. I do not use Realband however there are many Realband experts here that will gladly help you if you need it. Remember the only stupid question is one not asked.
Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.

This is how I use the program. Of course, it's only one way out of many.... chose what works for you. 1. I write the song in Band in a Box. All verses, choruses, etc are put into the proper structure, tempo and key are selected and finally the style....rock, country, etc. When it's right I save it. 2. I open the project in Real Band. RB populates the tracks with the BB tracks according to the style from BB. I select the longest track in RB and then use the track generator to add new tracks for instruments not in that style. I normally write in a rock style but RB lets me add fiddle and steel as well as anything else I want. I save that file. 3. I open Sonar (by Cakewalk) and import the tracks I created and rendered in Real Band into the new Sonar project. I do mixing, EQ, reverb, and add vocals as well as my live guitar and keyboard parts in this stage. When I am finished, the project is ready to be exported as an almost finished song. I export the wave. 4. I open my Wave editor and load the "finished wave" from Sonar. I trim the start and end, and add final touches to what is now the finished song. And that's how I do it.

GuitarHacker--
That's also good to know! That's sort of what I was hoping for. A lot to learn!
Thanks everyone! The fact that there's a friendly community makes a HUGE difference.

MarioD Quote: "That is exactly what I do. I usually only keep the BiaB drum track and replace everything else with either myself and/or others playing. But that is impossible to do with BiaB, you need a DAW. "
Not relevant to the discussion, but a fun trivia fact. It is possible to record multiple audio tracks within BIAB and not have to use a DAW or RealBand. (At least in 2015 version)
It's crude and has a minimum of mixing capabilities and any of the other methods mentioned in this discussion will yield far better results but if for some reason BIAB is the only software available for recording, multiple audio tracks can be recorded and never leave BIAB.
Once you have recorded your initial audio track, open the audio menu and select "overdub existing audio". Record another take of audio and it will be merged with the original take. This process can be repeated numerous times.
I use this method as a scratch track to try out different harmonies and backing vocals when I'm creating a song in BIAB and don't want to take time to leave the program and export files into a DAW.

That's funny. That was the very first thing I did: Record a vocal then overdub it. It was terrible (I mean, I did a terrible job). And I could not figure out how to delete it. And even though there was a Mixer Entry for audio, I could not use the mute. It just merrily pegged the meters and ignored me. (I think I see part of the problem in that the pop-up for the mixer doesn't necessarily reflect the instrument you're hovering over.) Anyway, I found the WAV file and deleted that.

Over dub or Punch?
Overdub ......merges the two into the one track in a sort of layering but not into unique tracks.... that's a recipe for disaster except as used for a scratch pad to try things quickly.
Punch, on the other hand, lets you "fix" certain specific places in a track with a mistake in it. Usually available in a DAW
Mutli-tracking..... the best option, is available in a true DAW and lets you do as many tracks as you want, punching the mistakes in the tracks, and all in their own unique track and mixable into the final sound.

Mutli-tracking..... the best option, is available in a true DAW and lets you do as many tracks as you want, punching the mistakes in the tracks, and all in their own unique track and mixable into the final sound. BIAB will overdub and punch in and Herb is correct it is more effective as a scratch track feature than an actual track to use on a final recording. I took a look at the BR1600 manual from the Sweetwater site and it indicates that files can be transferred back and forth between the computer and Br1600 as I recalled I could do when I owned the similar BR1200 a few years ago. To me, this is preferable rather than capturing audio from the interface output and eliminates the need for the interface if you want it to. The quality of the BR1600 preamps is similar to both the interface model preamps of your two interfaces. Simply record up to 8 tracks (or more using v-tracks) into the BR1600 and import the wav or aaif files into your DAW via USB for further processing if needed. Conversely, you can also export BIAB saved audio files to the BR1600 for mixing it if you prefer that workflow.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
