Ever since the new DAW plugin (Ver 4) was released, it has never worked properly. always crashing, sometimes without notice, FL Studio would crash and disappear from the screen. Being quite a major issue with the program, I would have thought I would see a definite (fix!) in the latest update. But alas, no mentioned of such. I have been reading through the forum to see if there were any workaround, or maybe I may be missing something. There are a few other DAWs having the same problem. What is the point of fixing everything but the most important issue of the plugin, if I do not get to enjoy all the new benefits being offered? The latest plugin has not made things better for me!.... I am afraid. So please, those in the know!.....When will this issue be addressed, so that I may continue to enjoy this wonderful software forever?

FL studio still crashing.

having tried (Unsuccessfully) the DAW Plugin 4.5.33 (since 4.5.10). It is still very much problematic when in use.

1. still randomly crashes specially after one or two generations of
tracks.
2. Does not save the changes made to your projects.
3. cannot load new files created in the standalone version.
4. Fl Studio will shut down after pressing generate. or fail to
generate after second attempt

Same problem still here too. However, lately some progress:
I am now able to generate the Daw Plugin tracks and transfer them over to FL Studio playlist. When I start to play the transfered playlist tracks ( with the DAW Plugin still open, in order to see the chords and song structure) I get the error message from FL Studio to shut down.
BUT, if I close the BIAB DAW Plugin I am able to continue with FL Studio without problems ( so far).
Could this have something to do with the graphic card? Mine NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060.

If you are having crashing issues you can try it in KV Element
load element as a vst3 plugin then drag and drop the BBPlugin into it or select from the list, hook the in/out up then click the EXT top left to sync it.
This fixed all the crash problems I was having in Reaper, so I think it is worth a try.


KV Element with BBPlugin:

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."
