Pros
Loads fairly quickly, and is stable.
Locks on to tempo properly.
Loads existing files properly.

Cons
Multiriff is grayed out and does not work.
Can’t regenerate a track that did not generate
Can’t add a drum track to a style that doesn’t have one
Can’t add a RT to the solo or melody track (not sure it’s supposed to)

Over 12 hours and little comment on this version. I would have thought you guys would be all over this like white on rice.

Installed but haven't tried it out yet. But it would appear to solve a lot of peoples' complaints. So well done PG Music for what looks like a lot of hard work. Specially glad that the VST plugin can work in Audition. Will have to give it a whirl when I have time. smile

I am a fence sitter this year... but seems like only a few are having troubles so that means all is good for the rest. Must be a user error. ...ducking and covering. grin

Very good you solved it. Perhaps consider making a new post to assist others? What antivirus did this?

In general, PG Music tries to alert the virus checkers but when updates occur so often, as they do after new releases, some are wrongly flagged as malware.

Interesting, thanks.

Sure, I think I would just start a new thread in this forum.

As well as putting it in the tips and tricks forum.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

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."
