Usually they last for the calendar month when they're featured. But this one has a promising caveat (emphasis by me):
"In addition to the monthly Plug-in Collective offers, we have teamed up with XLN Audio to bring you a time-unlimited offer for an Addictive Keys instrument of your choice. Use the code below to choose from Studio Grand, Modern Upright, Mark One or Electric Grand."
I registered my year old Scarlett 212 and downloaded all the necessary apps to eventually grab the freebie - I selected the upright. I'm new at this and was amazed to note that the download app indicated that the piano download would take 1.2 gigs. Of course I'm ignorant as to the size of the Logic Pro pianos that I currently use for midi super tracks.
Interestingly I found out I'm eligible fot a host of additional free downloads including a gig of loops and many effects. It's all a bit overwhelming given that I'm still learning my Izotope products.
are you talking about the NOVATION email? I almost trashed it because I didn't associate the name with Focusrite...
No, that is a different email - that one is if you have a Novation product registered (sort of the same thing).
The other (original) is if you have a Focusrite interface registered (or unregistered - they want you to register it).
The pianos are nice - and well worth the price (free )
well... I have several focusrite products, but I didn't get this offer. But the novation email also showed pictures of Focusrite interfaces, and I was wondering if there was a connection, and this was my invitation to the party....
Pat, Log into Focusrite, the offer will be in your account. I didn't see the email either. Maybe it went to spam folder .. but logging in it was obvious.
Thanks for the heads up FJ
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
Direct Link to the collective.... I check it after the first of every month (Outlook Reminder). That's typically when the new plugin comes out. Sometimes it's several days after the 1st.
Has anyone actually tried to run the installer? Bombed on my system and I don't have another 45 minutes right now to start it over like they suggest. Same thing happened to me about 4 or 5 years ago with a Studio Grand demo that I had. 2 strikes against XLN for me.

I installed it without any problem. The installer installs itself and then downloads the piano - which was a 1 Gig download - that took a while and there was a fairly significant "quiet period" between the time the download finished and it finally came back to say it was successful... I got the Studio Grand - on a Windows 7 system. David got the Mark One - don't know what his OS is. J&B got the Upright - they have a Mac...
I'm kicking myself more and more. I bought a Focusrite audio interface a few years back and never registered it because I figured I didn't need the plugins that came with it. Can't seem to register at this late stage. And now look what I'm missing out on!
So, I went to run the installer again, as I was instructed to do by the installer itself, and lo and behold, it said there was nothing to do. I picked the Upright, as I have a couple really nice sounding grands. Not sorry at all, sounds wonderful and just imperfect enough to be believable.

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.
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."
