Hi, I am producing many videos and short movies - most of them for private use. What I am looking for is to have some Realtrack Styles to write Film Music. May it be epic style or some others.

Thanks Werner
BIAB's Soundtrack feature is designed to do that. It is located under the Melody button in the top tool menu on the main screen.
It has sgu files that are themed based and listed by catagories. Midi styles accept replacing midi tracks with RealTracks and you can also create your own from scratch or import from existing files.
Soundtrack will automatically adjust the length and tempo of an sgu file to fit your video.
This is a great find, it took me a few seconds, but once I figured it out, it works great. For me it take several steps.
1.) I have to enter in desired time.
2.) It shows "adjust tempo and bars"
3.) I have to select them, and then when I close the window, I have to choose the song to end on the number of measures it suggests, and then you are very close time-wise.
But, I can't get it to do it all automatically in just one step though.
If I am taking unnecessary steps, I still find it great, just open it up in a DAW with an orchestra template and a way you go!!

You do have to make several selections so it will know the length and the mood you are establishing but I've not found anything any easier or much more fun.
I know it is awesome!!!!! Thanks so much for pointing this out. I have already finished 3 symphonies in 1 hour, all in D minor, and gosh I sound just like Beethoven!!

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."
