The BIAB 9 descriptions says "Most RealTracks now display notation showing the notes that are being played. " How can I find out which ones RealCharts can interpret? I'm interested in the RealSax from BIAB 2008 - In 2009, can one print out the Soloist parts generated with RealSax?

Thanks,

Travis

Maybe this can get you started. It's from the Help, Real Tracks. You should look at the full entry, but here's an excerpt:

RealTracks with an "N" in the Chart column of the Assign RealTracks to Track dialog can display notation showing the notes that are being played. Some Guitar RealTracks also show tab, and accurate on-screen fretboard guitar display to show what is being played on guitar.

Note that if you generate solos via the Solo Window, you can select Edit and elect to display Notation, request Stereo Tracks and display Guitar Tab where appropriate.

Thanks for the replies... I might have been a little unclear - I don't actually have BIAB 9, and wanted to know if BIAB 9 can notate the realsax solos (ie, prior to buying BIAB 9, because if it can't notate the realsax solos, I'm not sure I'd want to buy it). So I just wondered if someone who owns BIAB 9 can tell me if it RealCharts will notate those solos. If I understand correctly, RealCharts and the ability to notate the RealTracks soloists is only in BIAB 9.

Lyn, I appreciate your reply, but I'm afraid it went over my head...I don't really know what the 'solo window' is...

Thanks again,

Travis

I just checked my BIAB 2009 for you and all of the Sax RealTracks I have there will indeed yield notation that follows what they play.

The alto sax is one of the instruments for which I did a lot of transcriptions in preparation for making Real Tracks out of his playing. That blues sax player did a lot of note bending, as one often does in sax playing, and executed some wicked runs that will look pretty challenging when you see the notation.

Mac, thanks very much, that is just what I wanted to know.

Matt, I agree they sound great, and I think I can learn a lot from the transcriptions!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
