A RealBand 2012 Build 6 update patch is available:
www.pgmusic.com/support.realband.htm

Summary of fixes for build 6:

Fixed: Improved timing and audio quality when generating partial ranges or with multiple-tempo changes.

Fixed: Silence issue when generating a selected range with multiple-tempos.

Fixed: File Utilities, Change Dir had no affect when "File Prefs - Open & Save As Dialogs Remember Last Folder Independently setting" was enabled.

Fixed: K4 command in Chords window didn't copy the 4th bar properly.

Fixed: Help button in RT Change dialog did not work.

Fixed: Generate MIDI Track erased a corresponding realtrack.

Fixed: Undo wasn't working for generate MIDI track or Generate MIDI Solo if the track was originally a blank audio track.

Fixed: "Crashes Realband.SEQ" either crashed (if notation was open) or froze if notation wasn't open.

Fixed: Access violation in "Last Farewell" when clicking on track 8 of leadsheet.

Fixed: Ask if it's okay to change the time sig.

Fixed: Clicking on the big piano would not highlight a note if all the tracks were audio.

Fixed: MIDI Expression not defaulting to 127 if a MIDI track is generated but the track previously was an audio track. This was causing silent MIDI playback.

Fixed: Right-clicking on overview section of tracks window to apply an audio effect (like fade out) to multiple-selected tracks, did not work.

Fixed: If changing the bars per screen in Notation Window, and then later pressing play, the notation would revert back to the old bars per screen when the notation advances beyond the current screen.

Fixed: Fx Button was not loading the correct BMP file.

Fixed: "Select and Generate Loop..." would also generate unwanted RealTracks.

Fixed: If an MGU or SGU song contained a style change, RealTracks would not be generated beyond the point of a style change.

Fixed: File - Open From Clipboard did not work unless the Initial Track Type was set to MIDI.

Fixed: Background color of an audio event might extend beyond the length of the audio data in the case of multiple tempos.

Fixed: If a song is loaded, and ASIO is used, and play button is pressed while a SetupEffects initialization routine was being executed, then an access violation could occur. In other words, if play was pressed "too soon" after a song is loaded, then an access violation could happen. This is more likely in songs with a lot of effects.

Fixed: Access violation if more than 4 pairs of MME ports were used.

Fixed: If tracks were currently soloed, pressing the master solo button on the main toolbar would not unsolo them.

Fixed: Solo'd tracks were not reset back to normal if File - New command was executed or if a new file was loaded.

Fixed: Clicking on F/X button on Tracks window or clicking on overview section of track might cause solo'd tracks to appear un-solo'd.

Fixed: Midi Devices window sometimes opened behind the main screen, causing the program to appear frozen.

Fixed: Opt > Pref > restore 'never ask again' questions. whether you click yes or no the pref window gets hidden behind the main one.

Fixed: FlashMessage - "Style Can Change Patches" has been disabled in order to preserve the patch change that you just made - sometimes appeared unnecessarily.

Update tonight with crossed fingers and toes. Finally use both MOTUs?


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

1. How much did you make in 2023?

The fix on the regeneration of realtracks when the song has a tempo change is a huge one in my estimation, because it ties closely into some of the unique things that Realband can do that other DAWs can't. A big thanks to PG Music for fixing this. It works fine now.

I am so glad this timing / regeneration problem was real and was fixed.... I had been wondering if it was something I was doing wrong, or maybe a basic program limitation.

Thank You, PG.

Thanks for fixing the SOLO Icon button, but I would still like to see a better colour differentation between the Mute and Unmute track state.

I have noticed that the pointer lock ups, I have experienced when loading files, have ceased - I hope permanently.

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!

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."
