Hi,
So like the title states...
My 2019 BIAB does not load several of the Original Real Tracks/Soloists files.
I downloaded the update patch,but the instruments are still missing.
This is especially true with the Style Pack 7 I purchased this morning.
Nothing will load but the demonstration. I've reloaded the whole program several times, downloaded the update patch to no avail.
In the Style Picker for example I see [RT n/a] Sad Tale Country Folk Res Solo
Also in the instruments section I see **N/A** 532....
Very frustrated at this point. Do I have to purchase these solos separate?

Hi Bawb, The Pro version of BIAB is the entry level version. There are many Realtracks, Realdrums, MIDI SuperTracks, etc., that are not present on the more comprehensive versions of the software. I'd imagine this is what is causing the problem. If you go to the link below and scroll about 1/4 down the page, you'll see a NOTE where it recommends that the Xtra Styles are for use with the Ultra, Ultra+ or Audiophile versions of the software. (These versions have all Realtracks, Realdrums and MIDI Supertracks that are required for the Xtra Styles). https://www.pgmusic.com/xtrastyles.php?os=winIf you want to find out more about this, try using Live Help to speak with someone directly at PG Music. Given the above, I also suggest you ask about the 30 day money-back guarantee because if it turns out that the Xtra Styles are not worthwnile having with the ProPak, you will be able to get a refund. PG Music never quibble if they need to return your money so there's no need to feel hesitant when asking. Hope this helps, Noel

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."
