I love the ability to freeze instruments, but it would be so much better to be able to select which bars you want to freeze. That way you could select to improve any decisions BB has made about an instrument which you're not happy with, instead of simply having to repeatedly recreate the whole instrument track.

Note that this is a frequent Wishlist request. It's just expressed differently here. Most of the posts ask to be able to regenerate only selected measures. This implies that the unselected measures remain the same, whether that's called frozen or unchanged or what. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile.

That way I generate the instrument I want there first, then go back as needed and make it replace the sections I wasn't happy about. Finally, once the whole thing is more or less up to my liking, I move that finished track over to whichever track it was meant to be on. I've used this trick for example when I wanted the original 12-8 Piano rhythm to only only play chords (took a while, since it's such a jumble of chords & arpeggio), just to give you some idea of use. I realise it's rather going about things the long way round, but I just wanted to show you it can be done...sort of There's only one thing to do in crisis like this - Sleep on it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BBox 2022 Audiophile, Mac Pro Intel, OSX 10.6.8, 800x600 (TV VGA)

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.
