Please add more instruments in the "default" settings when using ST 2.X please. I love how easy it is to use the ST Voices in Biab, but some of us can easily mess up the routing of ST and lose those great instrument sounds.
I'd love to have some Brass/Choir/Pads etc to use in Biab through the ST app.
Thank you,
Trax

I'd love to have some Brass/Choir/Pads etc to use in Biab through the ST app. If you want some cheap ST2 libraries (which will also work in ST3 if you get that in future) Sonic Reality (eSoundz) is having their Black Friday sale where most ST libraries are $5 each. If you want to expand your ST instrument set, that's probably a great way to go, aside from buying the original ST2 sets from IK Multimedia. https://www.esoundz.com/search.phpType "SampleTank" in the search field right at the top of the page and it should give you a whole list of $5 libraries. Probably avoid the ones called ReTank, unless you learn what they are and think you wanna use them. But each of those other libraries is filled with good instruments that have a very small footprint and load quickly. Some titles are better than others. You might choose the one that most interests you and see if you like what you get before deciding to buy others. If you click on any title you should get to a page with at least one demo of some of the included instruments. But these sampled instruments are generally not going to compare to the quality of some of the awesome RealTracks we have in BIAB, which of course I'm sure you know. But there are some good ones.

Since I've already submitted my own sort of "more PG official sounds", this must obviously also be a +1 for the original posted request here 
There's only one thing to do in crisis like this - Sleep on it!

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."
