...all that plus more than twice the usual number of real tracks! and all the usual new features!

There's good stuff happenin' in PGMusic land!


Think the 201 realtracks was available in biab 16 as well, so maybe not a new thing.

I based that on an actual quote from one of the write-ups on the new version that was part of the beta test... but the version comparison shows that about 200 new RT has been the norm for the past few years..

Sorry for the confusion. The blurb in the beta document might not have made it to the live ads... but I'll start reading thru the live ads to see if this has been reported correctly. Thanks for pointing that out to me.. I don't want to make false claims.

update:=================
the same statement appears in the quick start video

I can attest that I read what Pat read. Yes, post when you've researched that. Maybe use the Internet archive to see last year's announcement.

I tried to check out last year's pages about a different issue and found that PG has set their website to not allow archiving by the internet archive (https://web.archive.org/). That is disappointing!

That's something new. I used it this summer to answer a forum question.

EDIT: Ah, yes, robots.txt Too bad. I will ask about this.

There are 202 new ones this release. There were 201 new ones last year. All years before that there 101 new ones. (Some of those years had a .5 release with more Realtracks.

So the usual number with the December release is 101. So this year release of 202 is double the usual number.


Have Fun!

Peter, can you share the reasoning behind changing the website so the archiving no longer works? It has been helpful to many in the past to be able to see older pages from prior years.

I guess the irony contained in the post didn't shine through... maybe because I forgot the emoticon?

Presenting BIAB as a plug-in would be a better solution for my needs and my workflow, being used to work with EZDrummer and EZKeys THEN maybe PG Music could take the plunge into uncharted 64-bit territory.

One can dream, isn't it? wink

That would be really nice, agreed. Yeah, I missed the meaning on the other thing. We are a little punchy after testing so hard.

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.
