Hello All,

I have UkltraPak on an external hard drive.

I opened RealBand 64 bit (build 5) and loaded style Gyro Rotary 12/8 blues with the demo chords.

All tracks were loaded except for the drums.

See error message in the screen capture below.

Any help would be appreciated as to why this is occurring.

Cheers!!

The message is saying RB can not find the folder that contains your drum samples. Search for that folder and then change RB's drum folder location to the one you found. I keep mine in the same folder, i.e. E:/bb/realtracks and E:/bb/drums.


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.

Hi MarioD

Thanks for the info.

The path on my external to the folder is correct as far as I can tell: F:\bb\Drums\BluesRock128^

I did notice that in the screen capture that there is [Multi] in the folder name.

I can load other styles and the drums load fine.

Thanks and cheers!!

Hi All,

Style Gyro Rotary 12/8 blues loads the drums in BIAB however when I open the same style in RealBand I get the error message shown in my first post.

Anybody have any ideas as to what is going on?

Can any of you try to load that style in Realband to see if it works for you all?

Or any ideas as to how I can fix this would ne great.

I don't think its a path issue drums for other styles load fine.

Also it looks like the file that Realband can find is a [Multi] meaning it also has a tambourine that you can hear when you aduction the style.

Thanks!!

Seems like an issue.

Thank you I thought I was going crazy!!

I am now concerned that this could also be happening with other styles.

I think that it might have to do with [Multi] type drums. The drum style also has a tambourine at least that's what it sounds like to me:

And why it is not an issue with BIAB but with RealBand is a mystery smile

PG MUSIC can you look into this?

Thanks!!

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."
