Hi Callie
I received a 20% voucher for a purchase, but I could not find an upgrade path from everything on 2016 to an Audiophile version. Maybe that was not the intention but if it was, I'd be interested to know how much. Thanks.

Hi lambada, Just give our sales line a call, and they can help you out. A "special upgrade path" like this one requires verification of the customer account, so we cannot offer it for online purchase. http://www.pgmusic.com/contact.htmThanks, Callie

As a long time user of BiaB this was a very humbling experience for me. I have not had the funds to update for a few years, and with the move this year it looked like it just might be another year.
But due to PG Music deciding to select 3 winners for the last drawing, I guess that I slid in there. I am sure PG Music got a kick from my response when I received the notice that I had won!
Anyway, as one of the lucky ones all I can say is Thank You PG Music, it IS appreciated for sure!

jcspro40,
Congratulations again! Great to see your postings once more.
Since it has been a few years since you upgraded I hope you will share your thoughts concerning the changes you encounter. I hope you'll investigate some of the extras in the Everything pak (like the videos or Master class series) and share your thoughts about them too!

Hey Jim, Thanks for the "welcome back"! It HAS been a while... And don't worry, I will be posting my thoughts on it for sure. I can mention here that the new Search Function for selecting styles has been OK, but not really solid in the returns. Tho I can see where country & rock would be returned for, say, CCR or an Eagles tune, I really don't think a "soft pop" style fits an 'ol Hank tune!  As for the videos, they are still pretty outdated. The largest "collection" is from 2012, and they go back as far as 2005! I KNOW that a lot of things are the same, but for a program that gets around 100 new features a year I think it would be nice to have a totally NEW collection of tutorials for, say the 2016 version, then add the "whats new" to that. At least the tutorials would then have a more modern production & would be more relevant to the program, I mean 2005/2006 is a decade ago!
