Liebe Foristen,

ich habe jetzt mal eine ganz banale Frage. Sowohl bei Version 2017 als auch bei Version 2018 werden die MIDI Sounds nicht mehr über den Lautsprecher wiedergegeben. Ich kann die real Band aufrufen und einbauen, die funktionieren; aber wenn ich einen Style mit MIDI Sounds meinen Stücken unterlege, kommt nur gähnende Stille. Das ist besonders merkwürdig deshalb, weil die Leuchtbalken der einzelnen Instrumente im Mixer angezeigt werden und ausschlagen. Trotzdem kommt kein Ton.

Wer kann mir helfen?

Hallo Saxharri,
das Audio-Routing von Band in a Box ist an sich logisch, aber nicht ganz trivial zu verstehen. Die MIDI-Ausgabe funktioniert, allerdings natürlich nur, wenn du damit einen MIDI-Synthesizer ansteuerst. Das kann sein ein Softsynthie wie der Microsoft GS Wavetable oder auch ein beliebiger MIDI-Softsynthie wie etwa Winlive. Du kannst die Midi-Signale auch auf einen Hardware-Synthie ausleiten.
MIDI hat den Vorteil, dass zumindest die ersten 128 Kanäle auch mit bestimmten Instruemnten vorbelegt sind, Band in a Box also weiß, welchen MIDI-Kanal er mit welcher Spur ansteuern soll, damit ein bestimmtes INsturment erklingt. Das erspart dir das zuweisen von Instrumentn zu bestimmten Kanälen.
Als alternatives Soundmodell kann Band in a Box statt MIDI aber auch Soundsampleplayern über DXi oder VSTI ansteuern. Dies sind beides Softwareschnittstellen, bei denen aber anders als bei MIDI die "Spuren" nicht schon standardmäßig bestimmten Instrumenten zugeordnet sind. Das musst du dort per Hand machen, aber für den mit Band in a Box jetzt mitgelieferten Sforzando-Sampleplayer sind bei den neueren Styledateien die entsprechenden Samplerspuren schon automatisch richtig voradressiert.
Du kannst nur MIDI oder DXi/VSTI verwenden, beides parallel geht nicht.
Die dritte "Soundquelle" von Band in a Box sind die Realtracks. Das sind kleine Audioschnipsel "echt" aufgenommener Musiker, die durch die Software zu einer durchgehenden Begleitung intelligent zusammengesetzt werden. Das klingt am besten, weil es eben echte Musiker eingespielt haben, die Musik also nicht computergeneriert wird.

Wenn du also keinen MIDI-Soud hörst, kann es einige Ursachen haben: Entweder hast du in den Audioeinstellungen von Band in Box beim MIDI-Output-Treiber keinen MIDI-Synthi zugewiesen oder du steuerst einen DXi oder VSTI-Sampler an (dann das Krezchen dort wegmachen). Evtl. hast du auch in den Windwos-Systemeinstellungen die Lautstärke für MIDI runtergezogen oder du hast einen zweiten MIDI-Player zusätzlich im System installiert und aktiviert (zum Beispiel passiert das, wenn du Finale gleichzeitig startest und dort der ARIA-Player aktiviert wird).
Das sind nur so erste Tips. Versuche mal, ob du damit weiterkommst.

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."
