Hi Mr. Gannon, I have an entire channel dedicated to using Band in a Box with Tutorials. I have listed a few of them here:

**********************************************************************************************************************************************
Topic: How I Use Utility Tracks in Band in a Box 2021
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box 2021 - How I use "UTILITY TRACKS" in BIAB 2021. This tutorial describes how I use the UTILITY TRACK function in BIAB 2021 demonstrating my exact technique using real screens and a real song that I developed. For tutorial purposes and not to have the tutorial too long I only demonstrate using Real Tracks and not MIDI and I do not do Wave editing within the audio wizard.

Topic: How I use Audio Chord Wizard Audio Chord Wizard in Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box How I use Audio Chord Wizard. This tutorial shows how I use the Audio Chord Wizard to figure out chord progressions for songs I may want to cover. The ACW allows me to quickly adapt the chords to a style and arrange a cover version of the song while having the ability to quickly change keys if necessary so I can perform the cover in a key more suitable for my vocal. This is a long video but shows the capabilities of ACW and it's demonstrated in 2 different songs (Soul and Jazz).

Topic: How I use Band in a Box to Create Effective Solos
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box - How I use BIAB to create effective SOLOS. This tutorial describes how I use BIAB to create solos demonstrating the exact technique I use in selecting the Real Tracks, auditioning different instruments, the rationale I use in selecting a solo instrument, and how I drag and edit in my DAW. It's a long video but hopefully the screen shots will show you my workflow in an easy to understand manner and will serve as a tool for you in creating your own compositions.

Topic: Back to Basics - How to get started enjoying Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: In this video "Back to Basics" I explain the fastest way "in my opinion" to get started using Band in a Box. This is a tutorial for new uses and dives into the main interface, shows you what you need to get started, and how to enjoy your early days using the product (WHETHER YOU READ MUSIC OR NOT). It is long and if you're new you may want to take a break during the session but I want to show viewers every click of the mouse and menu so they can quickly and easily duplicate what they see on screen and get started.

Topic: 4 Tips to Enhance Your Music Production in Band in a Box
Author: Henry Clarke
Description: Band in a Box - 4 Tips to enhance your music production (within the Band in a Box Console). This tutorial presents 4 tips you can use in the BIAB console to add "color" to your music compositions. Dynamics can make all the difference in how a song is presented and these are things you can do BEFORE exporting to RealBand or another DAW. I focus on initial composition prep, sweetening the drums, adding instruments and when to use them, and creating "Shots" for impact in your song. I use a ballad for demonstration purposes but these techniques can apply to all varieties of music and across all genres.

Revisit: Eyes on Success featuring PG Music Inc., Band-in-a-Box®, and the Updated JAWS Script

In the past, Eyes on Success featured an episode that discussed our company history and Band-in-a-Box® program with Tobin, our chief development officer, including how Band-in-a-Box® is even more accessible with the help of their JAWS screen reader scripts!

Later on this month, Eyes on Success will be releasing an episode that features Gudrun Brunot talking about her new tutorials about how to use Band-in-a-Box® with JAWS.

It's a great idea to pair the two episodes together!

So, while waiting for their Gudrun Brunot episode, take 30 minutes and to listen to this episode from Eyes on Success. To download and listen to the podcast, use the link www.EyesOnSuccess.net/eos_2344_podcast.mp3

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks

MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:

There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:

1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Review - Band-in-a-Box® 2023 for Windows is Overflowing with Features!

Dennis posted his very thorough Band-in-a-Box® review recently, where he dives into some of the new features added with version 2023: Sound-Guy's Band-in-a-Box Review

Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!

"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is, without negative connotation, a monster of a program. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. No DAW can do some of the things BIAB does, while BIAB can do a lot that DAWs do."
