Use KV Element and just drag n drop the plugins into it.
It allows chaining midi vsti, using Vst3, plugins that won't work in RealBand normally, advanced routing, allows all vst windows to be opened at the same time...

If you are using it Biab and Biab is running as administrator you have to drag it in from a file browser running as administrator also.
You can use the Plugin Manager to set the paths then when you right click in the graph it will show the plugins.

seems like drag and drop won't work twice but right clicking brings up vsts tat have been dragged in before. however, can only get one vst to show up in the graph so chaining is not possible........i can chain two izotope plugins by using two RB insert slots with one izotope added to a kv insert in each

thoguht i should have been able to chain in one graph - advice would be appreciated

second plugin shows up on graph 2..............i have a lot to learn!

Yes it will do all that, when you drag them in they will layer on top of each other so you need to move them.
Here's a newer version with the standalone the will scan and organize the plugins for the vst version.
element-win64
element-osx

Check out the videos, there is so much that it can do that I haven't even touched. I inverted the pics so it's easier to see the connections.

got the nectar 3 plugin working fine and showing the waveform of the track but the vocal assistant still won't work. it says 'waiting for you to play audio'. i've posted in the KV Elements forum for advice. does anyone here use Nectar 3 in Elements? the vocal assistant works fine with the plugin loaded direct in RB but as noted above, the settings won't save when nectar 3 is loaded in RB.

i can set all the nectar3 controls manually in Elements no problem but the automatic vocal assistant is a great starting point for vocal tracks. long workaround would be to use the assistant in RB, note the settings, open in Elements and manually enter the settings from the assistant in RB. at least they would save!

thanks for all your help pipeline but i can understand if i'm on my own from now on!

Yes the EXT is to send Sync from host to plugin like for EZDrummer etc..

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."
