Hi,

The MasterClass series and Multimedia Performance series were recently updated to build 76, which make them look much nicer on Vista/Windows 7. Thanks a lot for that!

Any chance that we get the same facelift for the Video Guitar series?

Regards
/Bjorn

Bad start. I have both blues, both rock and all 3 jazz video lessons so I was excited to see this. I downloaded the two blues files first, ran then and nothing. I cannot launch either program. I see that the update modified the exe files to today, but I cannot get either program to launch, either on their own or through the BIAB Practice dialog.

I am running Windows 7-64 bit.

(Rebooting didn't help either.)

I was able to use my old disk to downgrade back to build 74. What's up?

John

Hello John,

Not sure - it is working great in our testing on Windows 7 64bit. Could you email a summary of your system info to support@pgmusic.com, and the crash report if possible? Is there anything unique/unusual about your computer that you can think of? An easy way to print out system info is to go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | System Information. Then, go to File | Export and save as a text file.

The installers worked fine for me; however, I must say that I upgraded to build 76 from the previous build 74 patch.

Of course, successful implementation means you must select the correct folder in which to install the patch.

Well here we are, 5 years later. I still have the same computer. When I upgraded to Win 10, I thought I'd give it a try again. Nothing. Yesterday, I thought What the heck? So I tried again. Bingo! Something in the deep, dark corners of windows video upgrades brought the updates to life for me.

Go figure!

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."
