I really like the new DAW Plugin!
Very useful to be able to have the chord sheet play in the DAW.

I would also like to be able to see the music sheet play (when I have loaded midi music). Can't find thsi option (meybe it is there somewere, but I can't find it).

Wouldn't that be a DAW function?
Drag the tracks from the VST to the DAW and use the DAW notation, that is if there is notation with your DAW.

If you don't have notation with your DAW the free MuseScore3 may do work for you if you are using a 64 bit OS.

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.

I use Reaper.
I have not found any option to play the midi as music notation in Reaper only piano roll.
I have plenty of software that can play music notation as stand alone.
But I want to see the music play while I am recording my training session in Reaper with backing from the BIAB DAW plugin.
I find it very useful to see the chord sheet playing to keep timing, but would also find it helpful to see the music tro play along with when practising.
I just downloaded MuseScore3 but cant see how to plug it into my DAW (I want it all to be synchronised)

OK I understand now: I thought that you wanted to see the notation as you played but you want to see it in your DAW as you play. My bad.

MuseScore3 is a stand-a-lone program and will not integrate into a DAW.

I also find it very useful to see the BiaB chords in my DAW, Studio One Pro 5.

Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.

Many Thanks,

I was not aware of this feature in Reaper.
I will try it out.
I think it will work out fine.
I normally play it through BIAB notation view and thought it might be good to have it in the Plugin. But it will probably work out fine to Raeaper play iy.

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."
