I have the Everything Pak plus the 49 Paks from 2015 to the present 2017.
But have installed the updates, I am now missing a whole bunch of RT's and Mst's, 131 to be exact, all showing as N/A !

Is there a way get these back easily?


I assumed having Everything + Bonus packs nothing should be missing.
The missing ones range from RT254 to RT 277 + MST 23/24.
I have a total in the Stylepicker of 4843 items

Any suggestions anyone?[/font]

Al

I also now installed Xtra Paks 1 & 2 and now have a Stylepicker total of 5168 items. Although the missing RT's still remain. despite the website states that these are included in the Everything pack

Perhaps Peter Gannon can answer this for me?

Can you post a screen shot of some of the missing things so that we can see them? It would help.

Also, here's a thread that might offer some additional insight.

Noel96,
Thanks for the info.
Here are the screen shots of the missing files.
Another problem is that the download manager doesn't work as it says that it can't find my serial number and need to activate it. But on doing so, it states it is already activated and I don't need to do anything.
No wonder people are confused.

Hi, I had the same problem. It seems my downloads of 2017 realtracks were corrupted. I redownloaded and reinstalled everything and the problem was solved.

It seems like you installed to the new RealTracks etc. to a different folder than your existing Band-in-a-Box? I would suggest:

1. Run a RealTracks installer that you downloaded (doesn't matter which one), and see what it says for the RealTracks folder location. Is it your Band-in-a-Box folder (i.e. C:\bb ?)

2. Check in the RealTracks preferences dialog, and see if you have a "custom folder" selected there.

And/or

3. Check in the RealTracks Picker dialog, show RealTracks that are n/a, and see if it gives you any information there. For example it might tell you the reason RealTracks are missing, like 'ST2 not in BB folder'.

Hi Andrew,

OK, have checked on your suggestions and:-

1. Realtracks are installed on c:/bb in a Realtracks directory
2. Tried installer and defaults to C:/bb
3. Have checked Realtracks style picker and there missing RT's within the range of 254-277.

I have posted screenshots of the ones missing on this post

From the graphic, it looks like you haven't installed the styles or the 202 Realtracks from version 2017.

You can use the download manager, or do the installs manually. If you've used the download manager, and it tells you that you've installed the 2017 and won't let you install them again, then maybe you should try it manually.

Find the installer, and please let us know the name of the installer that you are clicking on that contains the Realtracks from 2017.


Have Fun!

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.

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."
