Hi, I'm getting the following error messages when I launch BIAB or open a file.
Warning: Your current drum kit has no bass drum assigned Warning: Your current drum kit has no snare drum note assigned Warning: Your current drum kit has no closed high hat note assigned Warning: Your current drum kit has no open high hat note assigned
Background: I bought the BIAB 2021 MegaPak for Windows and realized I should have bought the UltraPak for more RealBand content. I downloaded the UP upgrade and installed it but was unsuccessful. (That's a long story made short). So I deleted the MegaPak and all associated PGM files I could find on my computer and then successfully installed the UltraPak upgrade. It now works but I'm getting the warning messages above.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi. Welcome to the forum.
I think you meant to say RealTracks, since RealBand is the same with any version.
Can you tell us, what did you start with? Was BIAB 2021 Megapak your first purchase of this product? Or did you have BIAB before? We might need those ‘long story’ details.
An upgrade is not the same as the full package and I wonder if you deleted everything. If I am correct, I recommend you install your older version, then the UltraPak upgrade.
You might instead call or chat with PG Music Support if you are not sure how to proceed.

Hi, Yes I first installed the 2021 Megapak last week. It's the first BIAB purchase I've made. So no prior installations. I decided to upgrade to the UltraPak for the additional RealTracks. PGM customer service recommended the upgrade.
I installed it but when I opened the Download Manager, none of the RealTracks from the UltraPak were listed. The only ones visible were the originals from the MegaPak install.
So I decided to delete the (MegaPak) program and reinstall the UltraPak. The RealTracks are now all available for download.
So basically one problem has been solved, and another created.

It appears that you just need to reset the drum kit.
Try this: 1: Go into Options > Midi/Audio driver setup.
2: Change the "Synthesizer/Soundcard" option from General MIDI Instrument Misc to any other option in the list.
3: Press OK and select "Yes" to the message that appears.
4: Then go back into Options > Midi/Audio driver setup.
5: Change the "Synthesizer/Soundcard" option back to General MIDI Instrument Misc.
6: Press OK and select "Yes" to the message that appears.
Let us know if that resolves, otherwise there may be another way to correct this.

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."
