Do any other Users have the same problem since 467? - The RealTracks picker works quickly as it always has BUT after 467 - i.e. 469 - the RealDRUMS picker is lamentably slow. I have BB on 2 drives, one is XP and the other Win7 and its the same slow performance on both. Can take in excess of 5 seconds, longer maybe, for it to show up. Revert back to 467 and everything is back to normal. Can PG advise if there is a Fix on the way for that?

There is a beta 470 being tested with a faster Drum picker, should not be long.

I was on 468, when I first noticed the slow response for the real styles and drum pickers. The style picker if fine. I upgraded to 469, with the same result-----slow to open. Everything else seems to work fine.

As mentioned, it's likely that an update will be available quite soon that will resolve this.

Hi sixchannel
Realdrums speed is the one outstanding slowness issue which somehow seems to have been corrected here
On an unrelated setting I went to Preferences > RealTracks > Speed up generation of Realtracks ... checked the box and chose - High - in the dropdown box
This morning after reading your post I tried the Realdrums picker and now seems to be generating fast - no explanation
Some strange things are happening - Halloween ????

I tried it straight after opening BIAB and it was slow 4-5 seconds. So I closed the picker and tried again and it probably took 2-3 seconds. So maybe it has something to do with reident memory. Just a thought.

Build 470 sorts it. Many thanks for the quick action. In the scheme of things, waiting 5 secs for a screen to appear doesn't seem too bad but when you are auditioning RDs for a blank style that you are creating, it does get infuriating. Ian

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!

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."
