I am using BIAB2023.
BIAB does not currently recognize VST3 sound sources when playing plug-in sound sources.
For example, Toontrack's Ezdrummer2 is recognized and sounds fine, but Ezdrummer3 is not recognized.
I hope it will be improved in the next version upgrade or update.
Expect Ezkeys3 to be released soon.

Until there is native support you can try:
https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=754697#Post754697
All the VST3's will show the path as vsti3shell.x64.dll or vst3shell.x64.dll

This works in RealBand also and it still has the old Plugin Manager.
vst3shell_v1.2.1.zip
vst3shell_beta.zip
You can download from the source site but only use the 3 files with "x64"
https://www.xlutop.com/buzz/zip/
Extract the folder to anywhere outside of your VST2 folder.
Add vsti3shell.x64.dll to your VSTi list.
Add vst3shell.x64.dll to your VSTFX list.

In RealBand when you choose them you will get a list of your vst3's, pick one from the list.

It was confirmed that VST3 is coming next year / end of this year to BIAB.
Solutions offered by Musocity might work for now.

It's not available yet, but as you correctly point out, it is expected this year, probably in a forthcoming patch.

Did you look and see how the PLUGIN works in Reaper now allowing you to generate and transfer tracks instantly ?
You should have that in the Mac 2024 version and Reper has no problem using VST3.

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.
