Hi Mr. Gannon, I have an entire channel dedicated to using Band in a Box with Tutorials. I have listed a few of them here:

**********************************************************************************************************************************************
Topic: How I Use Utility Tracks in Band in a Box 2021
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box 2021 - How I use "UTILITY TRACKS" in BIAB 2021. This tutorial describes how I use the UTILITY TRACK function in BIAB 2021 demonstrating my exact technique using real screens and a real song that I developed. For tutorial purposes and not to have the tutorial too long I only demonstrate using Real Tracks and not MIDI and I do not do Wave editing within the audio wizard.

Topic: How I use Audio Chord Wizard Audio Chord Wizard in Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box How I use Audio Chord Wizard. This tutorial shows how I use the Audio Chord Wizard to figure out chord progressions for songs I may want to cover. The ACW allows me to quickly adapt the chords to a style and arrange a cover version of the song while having the ability to quickly change keys if necessary so I can perform the cover in a key more suitable for my vocal. This is a long video but shows the capabilities of ACW and it's demonstrated in 2 different songs (Soul and Jazz).

Topic: How I use Band in a Box to Create Effective Solos
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box - How I use BIAB to create effective SOLOS. This tutorial describes how I use BIAB to create solos demonstrating the exact technique I use in selecting the Real Tracks, auditioning different instruments, the rationale I use in selecting a solo instrument, and how I drag and edit in my DAW. It's a long video but hopefully the screen shots will show you my workflow in an easy to understand manner and will serve as a tool for you in creating your own compositions.

Topic: Back to Basics - How to get started enjoying Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: In this video "Back to Basics" I explain the fastest way "in my opinion" to get started using Band in a Box. This is a tutorial for new uses and dives into the main interface, shows you what you need to get started, and how to enjoy your early days using the product (WHETHER YOU READ MUSIC OR NOT). It is long and if you're new you may want to take a break during the session but I want to show viewers every click of the mouse and menu so they can quickly and easily duplicate what they see on screen and get started.

Topic: 4 Tips to Enhance Your Music Production in Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box - 4 Tips to enhance your music production (within the Band in a Box Console). This tutorial presents 4 tips you can use in the BIAB console to add "color" to your music compositions. Dynamics can make all the difference in how a song is presented and these are things you can do BEFORE exporting to RealBand or another DAW. I focus on initial composition prep, sweetening the drums, adding instruments and when to use them, and creating "Shots" for impact in your song. I use a ballad for demonstration purposes but these techniques can apply to all varieties of music and across all genres.

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."
