Thanks for the downloads. I haven't tried them yet as I have to figure out how to get them installed correctly and then pointed to correctly from Biab.
Prior to having Biab I used a Yamaha PSR910 for creating my backing tracks and was very happy with the styles and sounds of Yamaha. That your download can be added to Biab as a default to upgrade from Coyote is kind of exciting.
Like an earlier poster, I have an external module Roland Sound Canvas MKII but find the rendering to be slow and a bit awkward so I don't use it much.
I had a Roland Integra 7 briefly and completely bombed out with it... I was looking to use it for the guitar expansion pack, 6,000 + sounds and I found I would normally use about 30 different sounds in most cases.
Biab including sforzando has reignited my interest in midi and I truly appreciate your contribution to offer an alternative default with higher quality midi sounds.
Now I just hope to be like musiclover and get my head around on how to get it to work on my system.
the DGX203/206 pat will offer more voices than you have in this set as it will contain the pannel voices as sent from the DGX keyboard as well as the xg lite set.
hi mike this is great sounding the Yamaha higher banks, once I set it up right it sounds great thank you so much eric

I am really pleased that some of you have found this of interest.
Trust me, I'm on a Mac or else I'd be all over this!

Mike I’ll give this a go later this evening. Maybe what would help is a detailed instruction sheet of how to set this up

Nothing complicated just download the Zip file and unzip to a folder find the Dll file in the folder and copy to where you normally keep your Vsti You can move the whole extracted folder to there if you like as long as you know where you have put it. In BIAB you will have to add it to your vsts in the normal way by using add, and navigating to it you will only have to do this once. After that BIAB will offer it to you as a installed vsti
If you do no more, this will give you a XG GM set of voices. If you want access to the higher extended banks of voices in the XG light set, you will need to download and install my Pat file in BIAB. Then you can call up the fancy voices like piano and strings that is msb 0 Lsb 40 voice 1 , by using the choose patch (voice) from pat file in the mixer. Don’t worry you will be shown the voices by name the pat file will look after the msb lsb bit.
hi mike don't give up this is a great plugin so easy to use and perfect with the gm when you fiddle around for a long time to set midi plug in often disappointed and lose the creative edge I don't have to leave biab it sounds very good however I got so many plugins from many dawns I exsport out will try next time stay in biab though thanks for your contributions always eric

Good job! Nice to see the continued interest in midi. Personally, I prefer the Yamaha Synths over Roland and some others. In 2004, I splurged on a Yamaha Motif synth (first generation), and am still using it frequently. I also subsequently purchased the rack Motif ES (2nd generation) that I use with my midi-synth enabled guitars and as sound engine for midi files I create or from BB. Just to throw out a few other soft synth I've been using for years are the Cakewalk(SONAR) TTS-1 that Peter Gannon has listed in the BBW forum, and Dimension Pro (32bit & 64 bit). Between the two hardware Yamaha synths and Cakewalk soft synths, I have a lot to pick from. Cakewalk is now owned by Bandlab but Dimension Pro is still available from them. One last thing...for all things Yamaha Motif and midi, a great resource is http://www.motifator.com/. They have been around for quite some time.
I know this thread is several years old but I'm going to ask anyway. First of all, thanks for putting the VST together.
Im having trouble accessing the patches above 127 in my DAW (Ableton Live). If I change the bank to 2, there's no sound coming out of the VST. What setting should I use to access the sounds above 127? I tried sub-banks too, nothing does it. I can only access sounds 0-127.
thanks for your always valuable work/information sharing with us.
I have some trouble, that Biab recognizes the vst/plugin at all.
Even when I locate directly the folder the dll files are located, the are not recognized and i have a message, that says it is not a "valid" VST2 plugin or so.
The folder I picked contains the below files.
Any tipps on this?
Cheers Stefan

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.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
