I have imported a mono audio track to RB, selected it and opened the Pitch to MIDI dialog. In the dialog box I clicked [Process].

I receive an error that reads "There are no MIDI events in this selection." The audio has not been converted.

What is going on here?

I never knew about this feature.

Just played with a mono bass track and found that depending on where the various slider values are set, it may or may not produce results. Some values I set to, I get your error message. Playing with the sliders I was able to convert the bass audio track to a midi track. Didn't translate too well but I did not get the error.

So, is this a user error or bug?

Robb,

Is the audio 16 bit, 44.1 KHz? From memory, this is what's needed for this converter. Also, did you try saving the work as a Realband file before you tried the conversion?

Worked for me today. Weird.
I consolidated the track first though .. otherwise I got the error for every 'chunk'; it kept repeating the error. Six times for an audio track with six events on it.
Consolidated the track and it worked fine.

I don't know what this means, sorry. Could you explain?

Highlite the whole track (Right-click then 'Track - Select whole')
Then use Track menu - consolidate audio region.

It takes all the 'chunks' of audio (left from doing edits and recording and cutting/pasting) and makes all those chunks one continuous chunk of audio.

Chunk is a technical musicological word much like Tad of compression, or dash of reverb.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
