I think I found a bug

I was playing around with some of the variations for the BodhranCelticReel RealDrum. BIAB reports variations 3,4, & 5 as missing files.

On the BodhranCelticJig RealDrum variations 3 & 4 are reported missing.

I browsed the drive to verify contents and the folders and .txt files are there. For example:

G:/bb/drums/BodhranCelticReel/BodhranCelticReel^4-Brushes,WoodBusy_110_Style.txt


Perhaps someone could verify this for me?

BTW: I have 2011 build 311

He's probably out back shooting the spoons player.

I can confirm problems with those files here too. Also the volumes of the bohdran seem to be very low, I can hardly hear them even with volume set at max.

As regards the volume - I have studied the waveform in an editor and there are large dynamic differences.

This instrument could benefit from a compressor on its output to even out the differences between loud and soft hits. Unfortunately in BIAB you cannot insert a VST or DXi effect across individual instruments. You can in Realband - therefore if using the Celtic drums, go to Realband and do your sequencing so as to get more control of tracks.

Alternatively for the experts, you could load a copy of the the 'BodhranCelticJig^_110_Style.wma' into Audacity or similar and apply a compressor to the file with a bit of makeup gain. Rename the original file to 'BodhranCelticJig^_110_Style.old' or something suitable and replace the file. Might take a few attempts to apply optimum compression settings.

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.

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."
