Any chance we will see PowerTracks become available for Mac? Or the features included in BIAB Mac?

It's been requested (likewise for RealBand) for many years. While it could happen, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Update: In WineBottle give the Identifier a name like com.pg.powertracks as it goes in User/Application Support/com.pg.powertracks. To get your BB track into PowerTracks Export then then give the a simple name like Drums, Fiddle etc.. You can save files to User/Application Support/com.pg.powertracks/drive_c/pt/songs, as PowerTracks will open in the pt folder. 1. Save your BB song again as song-powertracks.SGU then after save rename to MGU. 2. PowerTracks File > Open song-powertracks.MGU (this will give your chords). 3. Now select the first track > File > Import > Bass.WAV, next track Drums.WAV etc.. 4. You can Import the RealCharts Midi as well, in RealTrack Prefs check Save RealCharts in Midi file/BB Song MGU 5. File > Save Special > Midi > File on Disk. 6. PowerTracks File > Import song-powertracks.MID ** Don't import Chord from the Midi file !!!

I don't have a Mac, but am curious. After setting up WineBottler to use PowerTracks, what are the limitation? Effects, virtual instruments, etc. Do you just copy over your VST/VSTi files, or to Mac effects/instruments get virtualized for the PowerTracks environment? Just an "enquiring minds want to know" question.

You can put the Win VST/VSTi's in a folder in User/Application Support/com.pg.powertracks/drive_c/ then add to PowerTracks. You can get in the Mac side of things with your Win PC if you don't have an (expensive) Mac @ https://www.tonymacx86.com/ as the Macs use the Intel Windows hardware now (that Windows users developed  ).

That's very cool, Pipeline. Thanks!
I'll pass that along to my son, who uses a Mac, as this may interest him.
