I ordered the new everything pak update Yesterday AFTERNOON on the phone and it has arrived in Leavenworth, Kansas this morning by super fast Fedex. I fully expected, knowing PG Music's rate of sending stuff in the past, to receive it in 3-5 days. It is coming from Canada for crying out loud. But the next morning!!!
Thanks PG Music for once again exceeding my expectations. I will be enjoying the weekend big time with my newest toys.

DITTO for me. Opening package NOW. PG is "DA BOMB"
(That means "great" in the U.S. Not sure about Canada or elsewhere so I thought I'd better explain.) (-:

I ordered mine using the Download method. Saved on the freight and any Customs etc but because of TalkTalk's (my ISP) lousy download speed of 300kps it took 60 hours to download it all. However, that is faster than any kind of Air Freight and it was SO well worth it!! What a piece of Kit!! cheers ian

I got a call last night from Fedex saying someone would have to be home to sign for a package in the morning. My wife and I spent all night trying to figure out who would be sending us a package cause I knew there was NO WAY this could be from PG. Boy way I surprised. Also nice that the wife said I could go ahead and start playing with it now even though its a Christmas present.

Right...I had to sign for my Fed Ex delivery. I didn't notice if there was a "no signature required" option on the order form but if not, there should be. It was only lucky that I happened to be home when the package arrived.
I have ALL my shipments left on the front porch. Doing so is fine here in Idaho. We don't have much crime...because EVERYONE has guns!!!! Not much "road rage" either...for the same reason.
Kinda makes you mind your manners when you wonder whether...if you get up in someone's face, he will pull out a 9mm and say..."Pardon me...what was that you said?"

With talktalk too, gotta admit they are cheap though, £18.50 a month probably around $27 for dsl broadband, phone line rental, anytime calls free, international calls to 36 destinations free over 3.0 mbit download speed, could get fibre with them too faster speeds but happy enough with what I pay.
Unfortunately this year as funds won't allow I will have to give the yearly upgrade a miss, ah well lots to play with still in the ultra pak 2012.

Here is a new one for you. I just got a phone call from PG Sales and Support. That's right they called me!! Seems when I ordered 2013 on line I apparently ordered 3 versions of the update. I kinda knew something was wrong when downloading as it seemed I had 3x more files than I needed. So with their quick thinking they were able to correct the order charges for me. Thanks again for the great service nnd support.

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."
