Hello Shaneblyth,

The answer is the same for both the Windows and Macintosh versions of Band-in-a-Box (BiaB). You have two options when adding additional content, purchase individual +++ RealTrack Sets +++ or upgrade to a different package.

Just so we have a baseline to work from note the Pro PAK you purchased has about 1/10th the content available when purchasing an Ultra PAK or Audiophile package. The Mega PAK has about 1/3rd the content available when purchasing an Ultra PAK or Audiophile package.

Also be aware the Pro PAK and Mega PAK does not include any RealTrack sets. Pro PAK and Mega PAK RealTracks are individual RealTracks combined into RealTrack "bands". The band RealTracks are pulled out of RealTrack Sets

You indicate you want RealTracks that are in Pop, Rock and Blues genres. PG Music combines Pop and Rock into one category. There are 19 Pop/Rock sets and each Macintosh RealTrack set presently costs $79 US so your total cost to purchase the 19 sets is 19 X $79 or $1,501 US. There are no Blues RealTrack Set category so you would need to look through the Jazz and Country categories to see if there are any sets you might want.

You can upgrade from the 2023 Macintosh Pro PAK to the 2023 Macintosh Ultra PAK for $279. Since the 2023 Macintosh Ultra PAK includes all available content you are assured of obtaining all the RealTracks you desire.

When you use the download from your electronic account option, multiple RealTrack sets are bundled into one download file. Download the bundle files for sets you want, once each bundle file is installed then you can delete the RealTrack sets you don't want.

PG Music also offers the Ultra PAK on an external hard drive for a small (about $25 US) fee. Run the program from the hard drive so your internal drive doesn't fill up.

Also note, PG Music should release 2024 for Mac sometime this year. PG Music normally offers set and package updates and upgrades at a significant discount when the new product is first released.

I first started with a Pro PAK and consider it a good investment. Since the program is the same across all packages you can spend your time learning the program and then upgrade once you are comfortable with the program.
