Really enjoying RB 2011. The vibes are a great addition. Problem: the tempo ranges are missing. At least I think they are missing. Anyone know what the suggested ranges are? Many thanks.

With 2011 new stretch engine it's pretty much a moot point. You may want to use the 1/2 time, double time, tripple time though to get something that sounds right musically.

Actually, it's not just the vibes. It's all of the 2011 add-ons. I guess the old tempo ranges (which are still listed) don't really mean anything either? I guess now its just trial and error until you get something that works? Can't rely on the old tempo designations? I'm not sure most users are going to realize that. Some of the instruments have tempo ranges listed, and some do not. Looks like an oversight, but maybe I'm wrong.

Hello,
Thanks for pointing that out. We'll fill in that info in the next patch. Note that those tempo ranges are just a rough guideline for tempos that the instrument probably sounds best at.

Andrew,
Actually, the printed ranges really help a lot. They cut down on a trial and error only method for selecting tracks. I rely on them quite a bit. Thanks for noting it and adding them on the next build. By the way, many of the new additions in 2011 are just great.

RealBand does have a RT tempo substitution option.
This is from the RTTempoSwaps file for Vibes...
1215,85=1216,140 ;Vibes, Rhythm Bossa Ev
1219,60=1217,110=1218,140 ;Vibes, Rhythm Jazz Sw
1226,60=1222,110=1224,140 ;Vibes, Soloist Jazz Sw
1227,60=1223,110=1225,140 ;Vibes, Soloist Jazz Sw (Bluesy)
To decipher the last line 1227, 1223, and 1225 are the RT#. 60, 110 and 140 are the tempos for those sets. The range is usually about 10 bpm under the next highest tempo. In other words, the 110 RT will automatically change at around 130 and use the 140 RT. If you load a RT in BIAB and change tempo, you'll see where this happens. Of course, you have to have RT tempo swap enabled which, I think, is the default.

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."
