sorry if this has been asked before but haven't been on PG for awhile. As I'm not a great fan of Jazz I feel having to pay for something I will never use is quite annoying and a waste of time for me.Now that could be said by another user re,country.. rock.. etc.Now my wish would be if a user purchases a pak i.e.ultraplus then he should be able to pick obviously for a price tracks he knows he will use sometime.Couldnt PG put out packs say for Country Jazz Rock etc for a user to choose from but only after purchasing a multi pak like the one mentioned above.Cheers Frankie

The workaround is to purchase or upgrade to the Pro version: http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.packages.htmThen purchase your genre's RealTracks and RealDrums separately: http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.realtracks.htmhttp://www.pgmusic.com/realdrums.php?os=winAlso remember any genre can be used in a different genre. For instance county can be used in jazz and visa-versa. Mixing RTs/RDs is also allowed. For instance a jazz RD can be used in country or a Latin RT can be used in country or jazz. They only limitation is your imagination. YMMV

I just wanted to let you know about a workaround. However I did forget one very important item in that post so here it is now: A BIG +1

Fkeefe, yes, your request for a different marketing approach by genre has been made before. I support having the opportunity to purchase by genre, as it gives you a choice. So, +1
I will comment that RealTracks in BIAB constantly surprise me. Yes, BIAB describes them in the RealTracks picker, but sometimes I don't completely agree with their classification of the genre (because it's limited to two categories, and music is not). I happen to combine genres all the time in my compositions. Further, what you think must be a ridiculous choice based on the labeled genre may completely surprise you and be just what the song needs. Look at the tempo and feel for other possibilities, and try them. I suspect it is to foster this spirit of encouraging experimentation that drives PG Music to offer their packages as they do, but that's just a guess.
BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Roland Integra-7, Presonus Studio 192, Presonus Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors

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.

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."
