I think these should be included, please tell me if not.

I've just downloaded and installed the 2018 Ultrapak upgrade to a new (bigger) disk and checking the What Band-in-a-Box Add-ons do I have? it is reporting that Soloist Disk Set 12 & 13, and Realtracks Set 48 are missing.

I probably have these on the previous version but don't know where on the disk to copy them from.

Thanks

Steve

Don't know about RT Set 49, but those two (MIDI) soloists are and always have been a separate purchase. I think there was maybe one year where it was included in a bonus, but then not again (and that was many years ago). So, yes, you would need to purchase those two. I suspect it has to do with the licensing arrangement with Andy LaVerne (the artist that created those soloists).

Ah OK, if that's the case I probably have the original download somewhere, it's just confusing that they are reported as missing.

It may be due to the fact that you've installed the 2018 Ultrapak upgrade to a new (bigger) disk. Did that same disk have BiaB on it previously?

No it was a newly formatted disk. The problem really, is that the program says that the soloist sets were not found, as if it was expecting them to be there.

Also still curious about Real track 48, although it doesn't appear to be referenced in any styles that are loaded.

Do you still have BiaB on the original drive that you were using?

If so, you could copy the real tracks from that drive to your new drive (using the same folder locations as the original drive), then run x:\bb\data\BB_Cleanup.exe

Then do a rebuild and see if the tracks are available.

I've tried a compare of the realtrack files on the new and old disks which does show a few extra files on the old drive. I'll try copying them and see what happens.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Copied the missing folders and no more reports of not found realtracks, so all is OK with my installation. Just curious now if they should be there, or if they had been removed from the installation for a reason.

Thanks for letting us know that you've resolved.

The tracks may have been provided on an upgrade or other special release that wasn't installed with the latest version.

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!

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."
