What is the difference between adding beta posts to the total or adding the thank you posts in the showcase forum? Personally I don't give a rodent's rump about how many posts anyone makes. YMMV


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.

Well said Mario and Janice and Bud, I was going to to say something along the same lines, and I thought "Maybe I am overlooking something here" so I didn't.

But it seems this is very important to some people so everyone to their own.

One thing I would like though is a thank you button added to the forums so that a person could be thanked without having to post to do it, but maybe then that might create a problem as to who receives the most "Thank You"

If it was about the post count, we would WANT the beta posts counted. You guys are taking this all wrong.

Beta testers cannot talk about the testing in public forums, so it's a pain in the butt when you start receiving PMs & emails asking about the new features (are they finally adding 64 bit this year??, did they make a plugin, etc). THAT is why we asked for it to not show in the counters.

If I had to read JUST the posts of users who have me on "ignore" this would be an all day reading thing for me...





I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

I believe the beta testers posts are again being counted, and no one to my knowledge has yet objected, so no problem. Some of us not only have large boosts, but the inflated count remains because we try hard to help new adopters for awhile after the public release.

So Rharv is correct (as always) that testing can be deduced by others who do watch some post counts changing rapidly. This year, the Mac testing occurred a bit later than the year or so before (and even THAT was noticed), but the Windows version testing has remained in the same general time each year. Of course, past performance is no guarantee of future events...

Carry on.

Yes, good point. It is noted that the beta testers often work encouragingly as a team to assist users with understanding new features during the transition period. Naturally, this increases counts. I think I can also include the O/P as a positive supporter in this area also, and there is no doubt this is appreciated.

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.

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."
