I have been using the program for a while but I keep finding that many Its are showing up as N/A particularly in the sets around 170 - 200 and sets 290ish through 330. (not exact numbers) I also show quite a few out of order in the list I am attempting to reinstall but finding it a slow and difficult process. any advice would be welcomed

Hello Rob,

Go to the StylePicker and set the option to show All styles including N/A ("Other" menu). Then sort by set# and look through the RT Sets. You will most likely find that all styles from RT sets xx through xx are missing, and then you know what you need to install. You could also do this in the RealTracks Picker.

Thank you kind sir. I reinstalled them and their are still almost 500 listed as N/A or that have funky set numbers. I have rebuild three times. I have sets 1 - 352 and all are installed. and BiaB sees that folder. I am sure I am missing something. Just fairly new to Mac. In Windows I never had this issue. I am reinstalling sets 278- 300, 301-328, and 329 - 352 again tonight and doing a rebuild again. Will see what happens.

Here is the pop up box .st2 files in the BB soloist folder, but no RealTracks in the folder/volumes/easystore/applications/Band-in-a-Box/RealTracks/. Either install RealTracks again, or point to the correct RealTracks folder in RT setting. Then press rebuild button again to re-build the list.

There are no more N/A listed RTs in the list. But there is still the above warning box.

Is /volumes/easystore/applications/Band-in-a-Box/RealTracks/ a custom folder location on a portable hard drive, with the main Band-in-a-Box folder being in the default location on your Mac hard drive in /Applications/Band-in-a-Box?

But is your entire Band-in-a-Box folder on the external drive, or is it just RealTracks and you have your main Band-in-a-Box folder in the computer's hard drive? If it's the latter, I think you need to copy/merge the contents of your /Applications/Band-in-a-Box/RealTracks and /Applications/Band-in-a-Box/Drums folders to your external RealTracks and Drums folders.

I think the applications folder is external, but I’ll check and see what is on what

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."
