Hi, Band-in-a-Box 2011 Build 318 is availableThis is considered to be a beta update because it is new. The latest shipping build is 317. Summary of Changes for 2011 Build 318 (May 30, 2011)

I just tryed to load build 317 but it say's that I have biab older than 2009, I've been
abled to load all the other updates before this one. I purchase the Ultra pack in Dec
2010 or Jan 2011 when it was first offered. The little blue book that came with it says
BIAB Version 2011 for Windows New Features Guide. and the program that came in a box
says BIAB up312, before this I had BIAB 2007 and it is still loaded should I uninstalled
2007 and if I do will I lose all the songs that I make in it when that was my only
program. Thank Frank

Hi Frank,
Was BIAB open when you tried to update? If so, make sure it's shutdown and try again. Just a thought.

Noel BIAB was off when I tried to load it and I just tried again I had everything off this time (meaning
the internet) last time I had the internet on but I still got a message that I had an older BIAB than 2009.
Thank you for your quick response.
Best Frank

Frank,
Something else that might be worth checking is that the path to your location of BIAB that comes up during the installation is correct. I've just installed the Realband update and the default path was c:\Realband. This was incorrect for me as my RB is d:\Realband. I had to change it.
Just another thought.

Noel Sorry I'm just getting back to you. I'm pretty sure my default is c:\bb but still get the same message
as before " older than 2009" Thanks for the help though.

Is it me or is stating the following a bit nebulous?
Added: Some new style definitions
Is there anywhere to find more specifics on this? If not, a more detailed description would be very helpful.
Thanks,
R

>>> Some new style definitions
These aren't new styles, just information show that existing styles all show up in the stylepicker with correct information.
Have Fun!

Aaah, no, the window scrolling problem is still manifesting itself in my system after using the DAW mode. I think I'll have to find shorter songs

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."
