Greetings to all... I just discovered the BIAB plugin that is now out. I really want this. The way I understand it, it comes with upgrades as well as buying new BIAB bundles. If I wanted to upgrade my 2017 version to the 2019 upgrade ($79.00 USD) will I get the plugin with this upgrade? If someone tells me "yes" then I'm putting my order in right away. Bobby

I was just about to order... but nowhere in the description of what I'm buying does it mention anything about the plugin. Wouldn't I be asked to pick what DAW I want it for?
I'm sure it will be OK... but I'm just a bit leery about pulling the trigger until being totally assured that I'll get the plugin with my order.

Hi,
rest assured you will receive your plugin together with the 2019 update.
The plugin is in the form of a VST plugin, that is: if you DAW suports VST, then it will support the BIAB plugin.
Greetings

The plugin is still being improved. It has been tested with the more common DAWs. Be aware the plugin is a subset of the features of the main program.

Remember, just as with BIAB, the amount of content available to you with the plugin is the same as the BIAB package you purchase. So if you only have the Pro Pak, you will have the same limited number of RealTracks to use in the plugin as in BIAB.

Hello, Is the plugin will work someday with the operating system Win XP today impossible to make it work thanks you your answers Good music to all I don't know. PG Music Sales should know. But I tend to think it won't work unless you have an extraordinary version of Windows XP, since the BIAB Plugin is 64-bit. Your Windows XP almost assuredly is not. Time to consider upgrading to Windows 10 anyway, for a lot of reasons.

There is a 32 bit version of the plugin I do believe. Thanks Rob. I wasn't sure, so I visited the PG Music home page for BIAB 2019 for Windows. It said this: We include both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions, so users of 32-bit Windows® OS can still run Band-in-a-Box® 2019. We’ve also made and include a 64-bit VST Plugin of Band-in-a-Box®, which you can use inside your favorite DAW (Cakewalk, Reaper, Pro Tools, etc.) to generate styles, RealTracks, RealDrums, Multi-Riffs, etc. That looks to me like the Plugin is 64-bit, but if it is also available in 32-bit, it would be useful to know.

IF you are buying the upgrade to only get the VST3, then be sure to hold onto your 30 day money back receipt since the VST3 plugin does not work on all systems.

Time to consider upgrading to Windows 10 anyway, for a lot of reasons. Matt, I looked but couldn't find where their XP data was listed. There was a 64 bit XP so if they have it they may be able to use the plug-in. Personally I agree that they should upgrade to Win 10 ASAP, if only for security reasons.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

Yes, there was a 64-bit version of XP called the Professional version, but no one I know had it. At the time, mid-2000s, no application programs took advantage of 64-bit code.

Yes... I've heard about problems some folks are having with the plugin.
But I bought the update anyway. Not just for the plugin... I figured that it was about time that I do another upgrade. If and when they work out all the problems that the plugin has, I can always download the patch.
I know that the version I'm using is limited as far as all the stuff I'm missing out on by not opting for the bigger, more expensive packs. But truth be told, what I have with the smaller pack is more than enough for the kind of stuff I'm doing. I really can't see the point of putting out so much money for hundreds of styles that I will never use.
BTW... I did have a chance to give the plugin a test run. The first time I tried ended in failure. Then I decided to go back and watch the instruction video again. After doing this I'm pleased to announce that it worked exactly as advertised.
I am having a blast listening to all the new styles. I'm actually thinking that I'm gonna look into getting a couple of "Style" packs. I think I saw that they were about $50.00 or so. I do a lot of country music so I believe that it would be nice to have a lot more country styles.

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."
