Though I searched the forum, but I could not find any relevant information on how to record MIDI into BB.

This is what I aim to do:

Using my MIDI-enabled guitar, a Roland GI-20 together with a Roland UM-1, I want to input MIDI notes onto the melody or soloist track, saving time compared to entering notes by clicking on the relevant spot for each note.

I`ve seen it done on YouTube, but without any explanation on how.

I see input today, but there seems to be too much information recorded, so that playback is impossible.
I do want to be able to record bending notes (mostly when I write a trombone line) and vibrato for reed instruments and the flute.

Any tips?

What do you" mean too much information recorded so that playback is impossible"? So you were able to record from your MIDI guitar controller? If so what information is there? You should see it in the MIDI editor; I'm not at my music computer to show you were it is.

You may need to thin out a lot of MIDI CC data to get proper playback depending on what the playback problem is.

I do a lot of MIDI recording via my guitar, wind, drum pad and keyboard controllers. But I do my entire recordings in a DAW. Sonar is my DAW of choice. My thoughts are you will better much better results using a DAW, RealBand comes with BiaB, than using BiaB. You will have a lot better control using a DAW.

So if you can give use some more information like what data is being recorded, what your sound card and computer specs are and what MIDI sound source you are using we can better help you as all of these can cause playback problems.

What MarioD said - probably too much CC data (pitch bend in particular)

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.

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."
