Hi Total Newbie to the UTs. I have BIAB2015EP Is there a link somewhere to all the current UTs? I have Winzip. I assume I DL to a (newly created) Desktop folder- where do I unzip them to from there? Then how do I get them to work when creating a new SGU?
A "UT for Dummies" guide would be real handy - if there is one, please point me at it. I did find a link to something that was supposed to be a video, but can't get it to stream either on my tablet OR on my PC.
Any help always appreciated Ian

All UsereTrack List Download a UT eg: Piano, Upright, Rhythm, Woody Pizzicato, 120.zip Unzip to: X:\bb\RealTracks\UserTracks (X is where ever your RealTracks are, usually C:\ or E:\ if external drive.) so in the UserTracks folder you will have a folder called Piano, Upright, Rhythm, Woody Pizzicato, 120this will contain the UserTrack files. *Make sure they unzip to a folder and not just loose files in the UserTracks folder as some might have not been in a folder when zipped up, if this is the case just create a folder and move them to it. In BB or RB Select > Generate UserTrack this will bring up the UT Picker window select > Piano, Upright, Rhythm, Woody Pizzicato, 120 When you want to get around to making them that is another story.

Hi Frank got it - the DL worked. The prob is my lousy line speed here for streaming. It spent so long buffering that I thought it wasnt loading. (It took 12 hours to DL my BB2015 Everything Pak update!) I'll report back later after I've DLd a few UTs. Many thanks guys Ian

Hi Frank, great Guide, I put it up on the UserTrack List It is a VERY large file 108 meg so I compressed it to 16 meg for easy quick download. Format Factory is free video\audio converter. Install it and DON'T choose extras like Ask Toolbar. Go to . Task > Options > Advanced > add to Context Menu this will let you Right Click on a video\audio file > Format Factory and convert audio to another format or video to another format or video to audio. These are the Settings I use for your Video Frank:

Ian... you first...Methinks its 8 pm your location. Glad you had some success.
solidrock,
You are too generous with the nice compliment. Was trying to help Earl and also learn bit more about Brand new Video software.
It is functional, so did the trick. Want to do more, but trying to get back to my music creation.
Hit a snag with 2015 RB so on hold until resolved. Did a posting there.
1280 x 750 is/was the creation resolution. Trying to reduce amount of download.
Did take note of your Pic and suggestion.

I created a one page, 11 Kb, pdf file detailing how to download, decompress and store UserTracks. The file is located -- HERE -- solidrock, you are welcome to store a copy on your -- UserTracks Links Online Spreadsheet -- . seeker, that is quite a nifty video you made.

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."
