I am actually really happy that so far the generation for styles and MR works. If the audio issues can be ironed out and the add a track fixed. then maybe a tad of stability added. We should be good for now. still like to see development continue

Rob, LOL, glad you still have your sense of humor, but I can understand the frustration. I've followed your threads and mostly understand what is happening with the 2019 update, but I'm a real newcomer to BIAB, and to music for that matter! But learning.

I'm still on the fence, having just purchased the 2018 Pro pack in September. I'd like to ask, if we set aside the VST plugin, and even set aside the 64-bit standalone version...... how is the 32-bit BIAB 2019 doing? I'm fine with jumping in, and getting up to speed with that version, and as the 64-bit bugs get addressed, I'd start using them more. Any comments on 32-bit 2019?

So far the 32 bit is very solid to me as far as I have used it. I just generated a 64 bar song file in Studio one it worked pretty good with the exception of the render time was fairly long

Rob,
4300 posts. You're allowed to rant for sure. I know I have but wouldn't trade these programs for anything.Not to mention the folks at PG are very top shelf in my book.

When I first updated to 2019 a few weeks ago, I really didn't think I was going to keep it. But it sure didn't take long for PG to push things in the right direction and at a remarkable pace.

I couldn't be happier with PG Audio and am looking forward to future updates and developments

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."
