Summary of Changes for 2016 Build 10 (Sept 9, 2016)
Added: Improved support for time-based VST plugin features. Synchronization / tempo lock now works for plugins such as JamStix, Addictive Drums, EZ Drummer, and RapidComposer. This allows, for example, plugins like JamStix Virtual Drummer to generate and play drum arrangements in real-time.

Summary of Changes for 2016 Build 9 (Aug 3, 2016)
Added: Support for Xtra Styles. These are 150+ additional RealStyles that use existing RealTracks from a 2016 Ultra/EverythingPAK. More information about Xtra Styles.
Improved: Faster generation of Loops or UserTracks in some cases.
Fixed: Song Title now uses a text edit control that pops up on top of the Song Title field, so that the editing it will work like a normal edit control.
Fixed: Pressing the Chorus Begin button didn't usually update the text of the button.
Fixed: loading in an BB song with an early ending wasn't generating the early ending correctly.
Fixed: TGS files were not loading at all for RB 2016 when loading in a BB song.
Fixed: after getting TGS files to load, drums and piano TGS files were swapped.
Fixed: if a BB track was excluded from a rest, shot, or held chord, and the track were regenerated, the track wasn't excluded.
Fixed: if measure offset wasn't the default, the music may have been offset incorrectly compared to the chords entered in the chords window.
Fixed: some newer styles that realtracks with loops in it would generate every realtrack in the style, when attempting to generate an individual track.
Fixed: regeneration of a loop didn't work.
Fixed: Clicking snap button in Tracks Window visually released the long button.
Fixed: nodes sometimes showing to the left of the overview section in the Tracks Window.
Fixed: track volume, chorus, reverb, modulation not set to default values.
Fixed: track categories not reset to defaults in a new song.
Fixed: Undo of generating a RT didn't always work.
Fixed: recording of mixer moves didn't usually create the corresponding volume nodes.
Fixed: issue of RB freezing when loading demo with DRMNBAS.STY.
Fixed: Importing a WAV file removed all track categories.
Fixed: Selecting "DRMNBAS.STY" in the StylePicker and hitting the Load Song Demo caused RB to crash with an Access Violation.
Fixed: Selecting Note Names: Channel Numbers in Notation Window Options shows numbers on the notes heads, but they don't correspond to MIDI channels at all.
Fixed: Triplets not written to XML file correctly if a triplet began with a rest.
Fixed: Some XML files, saved by certain programs, were getting access violations when loaded into RB.
Fixed: Generated music might be generated in wrong bar locations (out of sync with the chords shown in the bars) if there was a bar offset of zero.
Fixed: Band menu would always show styles that weren't installed on the user's hard drive.
Fixed: Loading in a BB song, such as SGU or MGU, might result in an access violation due to an inconsistency in the type/size of strings stored in the song structure.
Fixed: When entering chords in the chords window, and it scrolls to new row during entering, the screen redraw/entering may not work correctly (current bar may jump to top row and redrawing temporarily messed up).
Fixed: Changing a part marker in a song when the song is scrolled to the 2nd page of the chords window might result in the window jumping back to the beginning of the song.
Fixed: Duration and snap-to settings in the Piano Roll Window weren't always (or usually) sticking, if you closed and reopened the window.
Fixed: Access violation for paste with data filter and ctrl-7.
Fixed: In Chords Window, entering a chord on beat 3 of a 3/4 bar caused the 1st beat of next bar to be erased.

After I was getting a lot of aborts I started saving my work. So I got an abort that made me decided to go back to my saved work. The saved work still aborted in that spot so it was a waste of time saving the work. So it would be a great idea to have a time stamp save of work (date/time stamp that is). Actually a better idea would be to have it rotate. Here is what I mean. The song name would be at the front of the file and there would be a max number and it would save until that number was reached and after that it would loop back to the beginning. Users would find the most recent by sorting by date/time of the last update. It should auto start sorting that way so the latest one is at the top. Lastly the user should be able to adjust the max number. For my website they have this feature and I have the max number set to 100. I would probably select 10 for RealBand since the file is very large and I do not use it as much.

The markers probably should have a jump to in the list of markers. When jumped to it should be centered in the tracks window.
