Returning to Band-in-a-Box after a long time. I think I bought my first BIAB back in the late 90's. Was pretty disillusioned with it. Thought the Jammer interface was much friendlier. Tried again back around 2012. Still wasn't happy with it. Ended up leaving both for ACID and Cubase as far as creating content. Always hoped I could find a program that does what PG Music has apparently done with V2019. First impressions are really positive. I am hearing "realistic" sounding instruments. Gotta' have that. Lots to learn now. I am essentially a "newbie" so I figured I'd start with this forum.

Hi
Good to have you on board, that was a bit like me with Acid anyhow.
I done a load in acid using good loops/samples etc.
But it took me a while and a lot of work to benefit, I think its fair to say we all go through a love hate relationship with Band in a box, but the end results and the no boundary limits, make it well worth it.
Geez think I just described my relationship with the wife L.O.L.
Are you playing live . or a home studio etc. ?.

There are loads of forum members who know the program inside out, you just need to post anything you need to know and they will help you out.
My advice take your own time and plod along, watch the videos and ask questions on here.
I dumped it a few times as well, but it is easier as you go along.
Best.

Yes. Guitar tab is available for all instrument tracks that support notation.
There is a guitar fretboard window that displays notes played on each of the strings plus the print function can be set up to print standard guitar tablature.
New for 2019 drum notation is supported; you didn't ask but I had to share the info anyhow!

Appreciated. Looks like it is compatible with the Fretlight via USB. The new Fretlight is Bluetooth. I wonder if a USB>Bluetooth dongle would work.
