I am in the process of setting up a Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit computer. Both Blues Pianist Volume 1 and Blues Pianist Volume 2 install fine. When I launch Blues Pianist Volume 1, it works fine under Win7-64; however, when I try to load Blues Pianist Volume 2, I get an error message that says: Quote:
The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check you're computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.
I've tried various compatibility settings, but nothing seems to work.
Blues Pianist Volume 2 works fine under 32-bit XP and Vista (haven't tried 32-bit Win7, since I don't have that installed).

You'll need a newer installer for that - the one you have must be pretty old. Please email support@pgmusic.com and we'll be able to fix the problem.

Thanks Andrew. Okay, I'll do that this evening after work. It's pretty old, as it was a bonus program in a much earlier version of BIAB. Later "bonus paks" did not include that particular program.

Hey jford & Andrew, I posted something similiar to what you posted and received the same message. I think I'm having the same issues with "Blues and the Contemporary Pianist PAK" which includes Blues Vol. 1 & 2, the Latin Pianist, the Modern Jazz Pianist, and the New Age Pianist. Of course NONE of the programs work. What I did was download ALL of my programs (I have the OMNI PAK from 2004) and download the updates to my Windows 7 (64- bit) system. PG Music has ALL the updates, except for this particular program which is on one Cd-ROM. I also see that PG Music has a Performance Pianist Series which ironically has the same exact titles of the one I have. I wonder if PG Music would just exchange the new programs for my old ones.

Hello,
I think pgmusic has no update for bluespianist otherwise we would find on the web support site. By cons as pg music continues to sell bluespianist but with windows 8 compatibilty , they must provide the new program compatible with Windows 8 to buyers of the previous version; It is included in the warranty

Hi Coolsmart06 Yes, you are noting that PG Music Support is not your normal run-of-the-mill support arrangement. We witness very few adverse comments about the way the approach support. For a very good reason too. They are serious about what they do, and very serious about their customers. Welcome aboard, and we're glad they solved your problem. Cheers Trevor

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."
