Hallo allerseits, liebe Freunde der gepflegten musikalischen Unterhaltung crazy

seit gut 10 Jahren tätige ich Bestellungen direkt bei PG MUSIC/USA, also neue Programmversionen, Xtra-Style-Paks und all' diese vielen schönen Dinge, die unser Dasein erträglicher und abwechslungsreicher gestalten smirk

Ich möchte mich für's Erste kurz fassen und daher nur direkt anfragen, ob von Euch schon mal jemand negative Erfahrungen mit "Fast Spring" gemacht hat?

Ich habe nämlich neulich meine Bestellung des Xtra Styles PAK 11 bei PG MUSIC/USA auf Eis gelegt, weil sich kurz vor Abschluss der Bestellung und Bezahlung per PayPal (meine von jeher bevorzugte Zahlungsweise) "Fast Spring" (ein Finanzdienstleister) mit eingeklinkt hat.

Das war mir neu. Die sind bei PG MUSIC seit einiger Zeit mit im Boot (wie ich auf meine dahingehende Mail-Anfrage von PG MUSIC erfahren habe), wenn's um PayPal-Bezahlungen geht.

Also erstmal im Netz recherchiert.

Leider muss ich sagen, dass es anscheinend eine ganze Reihe von Usern gibt, die auf "Fast Spring" nicht gerade gut zu sprechen sind. Denn ihnen wurde nach getätigter Bestellung Tage oder Wochen später seitens "Fast Spring" unberechtigter Weise Geld vom PayPal-Konto abgebucht.

So, das geht ja nun gar nicht! Ich habe keine Lust, allwöchentlich mein PayPal-Konto zu checken, ob da jemand unberechtigt (!) Geld abgebucht hat, Beträge zwischen ca. 7 bis hin zu ca. 40 €. Dann geht nämlich die Mailerei mit PayPal los, damit man sein Geld zurückbekommt.

Ich will hier keine Panik machen.
Ich möchte nur weiterhin "ungestört" bei PG MUSIC/USA bestellen.
Daher diesbezüglich meine Frage an Euch.

Bleibt gesund.

Hallo BornforRock!
Ich habe über den PGmusic-Shop das XPro Styles Pak 1 bestellt. Die Bezahlung lief über PayPal und FastSpring unproblematisch, aber ich behalte das im Auge, wenn du sagst , dass FastSPring später gelegentlich doppelt abbuchen soll. Danke für den Hinweis.
Die RealStyles im Pak sind alle neu und klingen teils sehr gut.

Sorry "Brille", habe die Nachricht erst heute gelesen...

Es ist ja nun so, dass "im Netz" allerlei kursiert. Und wenn da einige von "schlechten Erfahrungen" berichten, wird man ja erstmal verunsichert, ist ja logisch und auch menschlich.

Nachdem aber "damals" eine sehr freundliche PG-Servicemitarbeiterin meine dahingehenden Bedenken ausgeräumt hatte, habe ich daraufhin das PAK 11 geordert und bis zum heutigen Zeitpunkt ist in Sachen PayPal/FastSpring alles paletti. Man gut...;-)

Danke!

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."
