First of all, I have recently upgraded to BIAB 2011.
I uninstalled the earlier version, but when I import any earlier music, it reverts back to the 08 version, even my MIDI files. can you set me clear on this.?
Secondly, I've never had to change tempos before, but the song I'm working on now, I have to set the last 4 bars to a slower tempo.( An outro)
I've searched but without any sucess finding it.???
Thanks
Walt

Second first. Press F5.

First, I'm not sure what you mean. When you load Band in a Box it should show you the version number on startup. It says 2011 right?

For the the first one, I'm guessing there are two versions installed on the computer (?) One on one drive, the other on another drive...

What version was the slowdown by percentage etc. invoked. I guess my saying that was the solution and also being touted by he who's always at fault is valid on for certain versions. I was thinking of offering a caveat emptor to my latin, ie caveat emptor my advice applies to the current version.

Rharv, it's your turn.

But note that much of the petroleum products from Canucksville get to the US via your town. Some pipeline thing.

I don't understand why some nut job in Libya jerks up the price of gas, but at least I hedged the bets and put a whack of cash in Oil stuff and the wife's investments are going back thru the roof.

The largest supplier of oil and most other stuff to the US is Canada. We don't need those nut job middle east folks at all.

I'm thinking of going to Port Huron when the weather breaks. It sure as heck looks like the glow ball warming is on hold for now. Dang, almost all of Lake Huron is frozen. And Erie has been for a long while. Not that I'm crossing it now. I did in 69 with my uncle who took 2 german amphacars over, I was in one. Scary. A car with twin props. (Rich uncle never gave me a nickle LOL)

I remember the Amphicar, there were a couple or three in the Pittsburgh area back in their day. One fellow in particular loved to let everybody see him drive right off of the road and into the river and away. But then the owners started finding out what it cost to keep 'em maintained...

Neat stuff though.

It brings new meaning to the term "land yacht." A hole in the something-or-other into which you pour money.

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."
