hello
i have been in touch with pg music support regarding a problem i have with biab . i have received a reply saying that it is been looked into and to keep a look out for any updates.

would it be possible to show any on going updates progress on the forum pages. this would at least let people know at what stage the update is at and how long it may take.

i reported my problem a few week ago but other than the original reply i got, i dont know whats happening(has it been overlooked etc) its just nice to know whats happening without having to pester pg music to ask whats happening all the time.
thanks

Good, that's the one I thought you were after, that should be released soon, they just need to test it out first:


  • Fixed: "BBW.LST not found" errors when using the Hybrid Style maker dialog.
  • Fixed: The [.STY] button in the Hybrid Style maker dialog.

Paul, you probably know this, but check the support page frequently instead of checking for updates within the program. The program doesn’t report beta versions, and PG Music considers each new update a beta version.

    Matt

    Thanks for input.
    i do check the support page when i check in to biab.
    what i really meant in my post was.
    would it be possible for pg music to keep all users informed of progress of any ongoing updates and what subjects the updates may include.
    obviously there is an update already in progress but other than myself no biab users would be aware that an update was ongoing.
    just nice to know whats happening and how long it may take rather than an email saying "keep a look out for future updates"
    its only a wish haha

    thanks again for your time.

    pipeline yes i tried your info with the symbolic link but it didnt work(i should have had the decency to respond ,sorry about that.

    my original post here is not really specifically about my problem,it was meant to be a wish for better information from pg on ongoing updates.
    im just a bit rubbish at explaining myself hah.

    pipeline, i just realised, youre a beta tester,at least i understand that bit now haha
    thanks

    I don't think PGM has reported back to individuals about the status of updates. I reported a problem years ago related to notation, and Peter Gannon replied that it would be fixed. It never was, and it was never mentioned again.

    Best to look for a work around.

    A few weeks ago there was a post here about holding a chord in the last bar of a song. Several users responded with the work around that we have used for many years, only to have Kent, from PGM, reply that the problem had been fixed years ago.

    So don't worry if you don't get an answer. Find the work around, and use it. Go back once in a while and see if it has been fixed - you never know

    Good advice, Dave. I explained that one workaround and was very surprised by Kent’s revelation. But what is your notation issue? Let’s give it another shot. I think the problem reporting performance is working better now than ever before.

    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."
