Everytime there are new styles I wonder the same question. Who requested these styles?
I don't see any of the New Extra Styles requested here.
And I still bought them. I don't know why.

You're correct that these Xtra styles are not styles that have been requested. But I don't believe Xtra styles were created to fulfill style requests.
I view the styles as PG Music showcases of how much styles influence the overall quality of a MGU/SGU song file and how modern and exciting sounding songs can be when the PG Music tools are used by professionals. I think many forum users view the Xtra styles as sources of inspiration.
I see many PG Music employees comment in the forum. I'm glad to see so many of them have the opportunity to participate in the forum. It makes me value the forum and product higher than other company operated forums.

As I understand it, the Xtra styles are a new way of combining existing sounds in ways that work very well. You might discover these combinations on your own but it would take a lot of experimenting.
Yrs, there have been many new styles introduced over the years in direct response to requests in this forum.

Hi Blues 1952,
I agree - PG Music where are all the styles and real tracks requested in this forum?

Well said Jim and Matt. I agree it shows how to create your own styles. I for one rarely use a style as presented. The great fun and great power is to be able to combine RealTracks the way that suits your own needs. However, without the various RealStyles and XtraStyles where would one start.

I agree - BIAB 2019 comes out with yet another slew of Klezmer, Celtic and Country Styles and Realtracks that nobody requested. Why have this Forum if BIAB takes absolutely no notice of what the users want?

I agree,too, now there is more than enough Klezmer and Celtic ! The style of the following artists is (my opinion !) very interesting and absolutly not present: Jim Croce; Leadbelly; Kansas Joe McCoy; John Lee Hooker; JJ Cale ! Leo Kottke !; Muddy Waters and Doc Watson (?). They are all good guitar-players and playable for Brent !

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."
