I note that a good deal of the major DAW's have already released their respective updates for 2019.
Will there be any major changes to BB in 2019 or any revolutionary new features.

Exactly. Everything will be announced once it's released, and everyone who knows anything is sworn to secrecy until then.  Cheers Kent

My prediction is that there will probably be over 50 exciting new features in Band-in-a-Box® 2019!

I don't know anything, but I expect an arpeggiator-function, strings that can play advanced chords (not just triads), a lot more midi-supertracks - and of course new musicians on the RealTracks, so that we can get more variation on those tracks.
And no more of the useless video-tracks.
I can always hope...
Will

Thanks for replies. I tried the 64 bit request years ago. BB dismissed it as not necessary. I know I would like better melodists, something more convincing than what we already have. I also would love to see more Irish, Contemporary Folk, Celtic, Scottish ..... even a Uileann Pipe instrument. https://www.reverbnation.com/control_room/artist/168894/songshttps://soundcloud.com/you/tracks

thnx for the tip, Dennis Bolder is a nice guy, but to me this fiddle sounds a bit along the (pipe?)line of Scottish bagpipes, and there's no shuffles it seems. I ordered it BTW. Though Andy Leftwitch' stuff in the old RTs is still the best sounding and mixable fiddle (and mandolin) i heard sofar ... ......... I also would love to see more Irish, Contemporary Folk, Celtic, Scottish ..... even a Uileann Pipe instrument. Dennis Bolder has pipes too; his Uillean pipes sound good, but there's no regulators .... asked him about it last year, but he even did not know what they were LoL. On sale right now: Bolder Pipes And this unique instrument too: Type Writers F

How about a declaration from PG Music that Black Friday will include all of December, with extraordinary deals beyond any regular ones?

Listened to it, classical, ain't no fiddle. As usual most of these classical players camouflage their inabilities to play a correct pitched tone by extensive vibrato wobbling, i hate that, and they have absolutely no sense of any rhythmic grooving, they never learned that properly; something coming from a jerking-jumpy bowing style not taught at their type of schooling ... Nope, gimme Andy Anytime ...

.. I think Bolder was the only one I found called "Fiddle" It's close to what you need, but the rhythmic shuffling 's not there. In februari i am teaching a 2 days Cajun fiddle workshop near Koblenz in Germany ... come down from down under. Boss there is French, he also hired a profi cook for studentical support, and has a nose for good wine too, probably NOT from down under ...

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."
