OK, I don't know what I did to get things turned around. I was clicking on some of the options at the top of the mixer and looking around. And the last thing I clicked on was the icon for docking/undocking the mixer. And when I clicked on it to be redocked, ka-blooee! Everything had changed. After fiddling around with it a while, I managed to get it part way back, but it's still not all the way there yet. I'm still looking around for something I can click on telling the program to put the original mixer back, but I haven't found it yet.
Okay, right now, I'm trying to display an image I created by doing a printscreen, cropping it, then uploading it to my website, but for whatever reason this forum software doesn't seem to like my url information because it's just showing blank space where the image should be.
What I'm seeing is truncated information on the left side of the mixer -- a smaller box for the description of the instrument, as well as a smaller area that shows the mixer meter for that channel, plus the addition of a bunch of blank "utility" channels. If I click on the option where only the active channels are shown, this gets rid of all the utility channels, but also it gets rid of the solo and audio channels that I'm accustomed to seeing even if they don't have any data. You know -- the way the old mixer works.
So, my apologies for not being able to display an image -- too bad this forum software doesn't have provisions for uploading an image file for display -- but I'm hoping you can puzzle out what I need based on my descriptions.

Hmm . . . howabout I just post a link to the image? http://michaelmcbroom.com/images/biab_mixer.jpgAt some point in my attempts to get things restored, I switched from MIDI volume measurement to dB, which you can see with one channel that was maxed out. But that shouldn't matter -- should it?

I'm getting a browser warning blocking the image.
But as an easy way to fix this for the moment without diagnosing the cause, try Options, Return to Factory Settings.

I can see the image. Looks like you've changed the panel height.
Click on the "cog" in the top right, there you set the panel height min and max.

In addition to Lee's advice, you could also try clicking the Eye icon and select "Show Active, Hide Inactive". Having fewer tracks showing in the mixer will also make them not as squished.
Best,
Chantelle

Thanks for the suggestions. I had tried messing with the panel height before -- but I only played around with the max height. Just now I increased the min height, which got set to 19, to 40. That seems to have done the trick. It appears to be back to normal now.
Matt, I think the reason why you were getting a browser warning is because my website is still the old http and not https. Gotta fix that one of these days.

Michael, yes, I only go to sites with the secure certificate.

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."
