Dear Sirs,
I bought a band in a box 2018 for windows audiophile edition, I updated the band in a box (build 510) and realband (build 4). From a check I noticed that not all styles seem to be installed, such as the vocal styles _LALAOOH and _OOHLALA. I have repeatedly rebuild the styles database of both a band in a box and realband (as described in the biab forum) but the list is not updated.
I also noticed that the folder c: / bb / styles has a small number of styles, while the folder e: bb / styles (HDD audiophile) has many more styles (there is _OOHLALA but not _LALAOOH) despite none of the two is visible in the style picker.
I then copied the styles in the audiophile HDD (6776 files, 157mb) in the c: / bb / styles folder, after a complete and partial rebuild in both programs (band in a box and realband) now result in 5326 styles. Now the style _OOHLALA is present, but _LALAOOH is always missing.
I finally tried to load a song of a user who used the style _LALAOOH found on the biab forum, but, not being present in my database, the system sets a default style.
We look forward to an early reply.
Thank you in advance.
Antonio

Hello,
Are you running Band-in-a-Box from your C: drive or the E: drive? It seems strange that you would have a C:\bb folder with only a limited number of styles in it, so I'm not sure exactly what happened there. But let's assume you are running the program from E: (the Band-in-a-Box hard drive). Install the patch again, and double-check that you selected E:\bb as the destination. You should end up with both the styles _OOHLALA and _LALAOOH (one or both might have been added in the patch).
Also, those styles should show up in the StylePicker regardless of whether they are present in the Styles folder. There are options to show N/A styles in the StylePicker "other" menu, and this could help explain it. If the actual .STY files are not there, they will show up as N/A. If the .STY files are there but the RealTracks are not, they will show up as RT N/A.
One reason the RealTracks would not be there, is if Band-in-a-Box was looking for the RealTracks files in a custom location. Check the RealTracks Preferences dialog and make sure the "Custom folder" location is what you expect. Same thing applies to the RealDrums.

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

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."
