Hi
I have RealBand 2019 build 3

When I record vocal on a track in Real Band, I hear it with volume well balanced with the music tracks but on playback that vocal track volume is very low. I have to do a gain change
of +2 or 3 db on that track to have the same volume as when recording.
I thought it was a problem with my sound card so I did the same thing with Sonar and everything plays back ok, the recording and playback volume is the same.

Maybe someone has an idea of what can be the problem
Thanks

How does the input signal look in the RB meters while recording?
Does it match the output level of the resulting recording?
Just wondering if it is a monitoring path difference between the two or whether you actually end up with a lower volume track than what you sent to RB.

Also, in RB there are few places the playback can be boosted .. Open the DX/FX area for the track and try the Trim knob instead of applying Gain Change (which is a hard written change).

Check the slider in the mixer on the resulting track also, but I assume you did that..

Hi thank you.
The input signal is about the same as the music tracks.
Finaly what I did is lower the volume on all the music tracks and add a little more volume on the input. It works ok like that.

Thks again

I had the same problem in RB the vocals always record way too low. I also turned down the instruments and had the vocals up but when I finished it as a wav file it was still way too low even though it sounded decent in RB on the final playback. Don't know what's happening there? I had my son who's a music and computer genius look at it and he couldn't figure it out. I finally went to Mixcraft8 as my DAW and am going to bring my BIAB files into that and record the vocals in Mixcraft8. It sounded way better. I suppose you could also do that with Audaciaty. Save the individual tracks as wav files and have Audacity import them.

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."
