Worked! Got the whole thing to record thru my POD device by using the line in. Took some experimenting. I understand now that using the Juno as midi and the POD as a re-route device in let me keep my Juno sounds and record back thru the POD device. Next step is to add the guitar part in PT and reropute the whole thing back, hoping it retains my midi Juno sounds and the guitar. I'll report back. Thanks for all the help. I am starting to get a better understanding of midi drivers/devices and audio inputs/outputs. Makes one think he has to be as much an engineer as a musician!

Now I have my midi tracks. I added an audio track. How can I get all the tracks to play back to record? Depending on the drivers chosen, I can hear either just the midi or just the audio.

Thanks - Bernie

This where a mixer comes in handy so you can hear more than one soundsource at the same time.
That's a whole 'nother routing lesson.

For now, without a mixer, your best bet is to record the Juno to audio so you can use the input for other things while hearing all the tracks.
I'd keep the midi tracks afterwards, just mute them. This allows you to go back and experiment with different sounds later.

To simplify - play the midi to the synth and record the audio from the synth to an audio track for now so you can hear the synth sounds while recording the rest of the audio.

Pro Tip -

In one of the tabs under Options Preferences there is a box to check that says 'always record audio too when recording to a midi track' or something close to that.

If you check that box, then when you record the MDI for your keyboard the program will also record the audio of the performance, and put it on the next available track.

Might save time in the long run if you play it well enough and don't need a lot of editing (which would mean rerecording the edited midi anyway).

Is the track you are recording to a MIDI track?

Is the POD selected as the input device?

This feature has always worked well here, using various soundcards.

I swear you are a genius! I did not have my POD device plugged in so naturally no audio input. Once I did, it did tell me that audio data was recorded and put in on a separate track. As a test I deleted the midi track, unplugged my Juno device and listened to the audio track. It kept the patch I recorded in! Now I can work with the audio data in the original midi patch sounds and add my guitar and vocals.

Thanks so much!!!

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
