Navigate to a folder where there is an SGU or MGU file created by BIAB. 2. Right-click on the file and select "Open with" from the pop-up menu. 3. Uncheck "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file". 4. Click on "Browse". 5. Navigate to C:\RealBand and double-click on "Realband.exe". The song should now open in Realband and the tracks will be generated. This should dislodge the previous file that's hanging around. Regards, Noel MY SONGS...

Any file with this name becomes the default file when NEW is selected or when the program loads. ROG. This seems to have done the trick Rog, thanks. Something else that the tech support people were unaware of until I passed the tip along to them this morning. Thanks.....

If you are moving files around, you may be getting different permission settings on one drive than another. Depending on permissions and Folder Options settings. Primarily I was deleting anything that was remotely connected to the tracks that kept loading when I opened RealBand so I could start a new project. Rog's suggestion of deleteing the $OPTIONS.SEQ did the trick and I'm back to a clean start window again. Lee

When RealBand opens it looks for a setup file "Default" or maybe "$Options.seq" which can be setup by the user. This can be reloaded by selecting the "New" icon. Maybe that this is to where you saved your funny file somehow and why it continues to reload when starting up RealBand and will not be found by the searches.

My mind categorizes this as User Error since the program behaved as designed. Often it's just a matter of learning why it did what it did. Make your sound your own! ..

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.
