Hello everyone. Although I have been mucking around with BIAB for some years, I am now ready to give enough time to learn it properly. I'm looking for a user group that can help. I'm in Leeds, have a mac and BIAB 2019, liked to my yamaha clavinova. I know what I want to achieve, but I'm finding it really difficult to push the right buttons in BIAB. Any support would be received with gratitude... and maybe a beer!

BEER! If I lived within 100 kilometers from you I would be there wink

Seriously though don't be afraid to ask questions on these forums. This is the most friendly and helpful bunch of guys and gals on the web. All questions are respectfully answered. That means you will never get a "read the manual" answer.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Some of PG Music's video clips at the below link might be useful when it comes to giving some food-for-thought, too.

HI Andrew.

I have copied here a couple of my old post may be of interest to you.

New BIAB W10 pc for my Yamaha CVP 405.

After my recent success with W7 to W10 upgrades on my 2 existing PCs, I decided to push the boat out and buy a new PC so that I could have BIAB and some of my other music software permanently connected to my Yamaha Clavinova CVP405 in my Lounge .
This saves me having to break down and move my existing BIAB PC from my normal every day work station and controller keyboard and Audio interface, to the other room and reset all midi and audio drivers to suit, then change them back again when I bring it back.
As I had not used my 3 BIAB installs allowed, and still had a spare license for Acronis True image it just had to find a suitable PC.
In the end I went for a 24 inch White all in one from HP
Processor - Intel® Core™ i5+ 8250U Processor
- Quad-core- 1.6 GHz / 3.4 GHz- 6 MB cache
RAM 8 GB DDR4 (2400 MHz)
Storage 2 TB HDD (7200 rpm)
The 24” monitor would also mean I could display 2 full A4 size PDF pages of music sheets side by side, useful as the pc screen would be using my music stand .

Below is diagram of my set up copied from another post
Hope this is some help.

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."
