pipeline.
i AM aware of video RTs. i have ultrapak 2020.
my own wish is that biab not bloat up into a fancy huge video editing app.
that impacts other features people want.
like that nice tabbed chord view, and 16 traks i want. lol.

there are lots of video apps. from cheap to crazy expensive.
i'm worried bout reaper for the same reason. b l o a t .
if i want a fancy video//editing app i'll get one.
magix has a cheap one i believe.

as video stands now. fine. just worried bout bloated exe's.
maybe pg should ask users to partake in user referenda as to future features.

best/every happiness.

As I said Reaper can do all of that with your UserTracks.
But if they did enable that for usertracks it wouldn't be any bigger.
But I think the b l o a t horse has already bolted.
You know what's not given enough credit and hardly anyone knows about ?

It's already there, it would use the existing Video RT/RD function for UserTracks video.



Yes, since the technology to play video RT's is already in BIAB, I think it would only require the user interface additions to control it. Adding editing functions, definitely not, but anyone creating their own Video Realtrack would have to have their own video editing software anyway.

Pipeline.
re biab daw plug in standalone mode.
ive checked it out several times. and its v nice.
I DO like the screen display. and extra slots.
but shame many features missing.
no mixer display for example.
eg i would like to balance the traks ie pan/volume.
breaking news , looks like 2021 has more biab traks.

best.
muso.
ps. simon. goodness i hope biab devs dont go wild on adding
complex video editing features.
it s bloat i'm worried bout.
btw give the devs my xmas wishes. i know its not easy keeping all users happy. been there , done that.

I don’t think any of the main new features are bloat. Many were user requests.

I looked at the new features of BIAB '21 and immediately had Windows-envy.

Now for us Mac guys, the long wait begins... :-)


Looks really awesome, PG Music folks, great job! Looking forward to being able to upgrade myself!

Maybe not so long. Now that both use the same code base (we were told), the Mac version can appear sooner than was done years before. You might be surprised.

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."
