For what I do, I think a multi selection for the import would be very handy...
It already appends the next import to the next available track..

What do you people think...?

When I open a midi file in RB each instrument opens on a different track. Or was this not what you meant ? Obviously it wouldn't work with an audio file.

The original poster mentioned Import as opposed to Open.

If it is MIDI and you do Import it, if it comes in on a single track there is a function to 'Extract Channels to Tracks' which would quickly spread them out for you.

It would help to know what you are importing.
MIDI, SEQ, SGU, MGU, Audio .. ?

What version of RB?

If import doesn't separate tracks, open in RB will. Does that do what you want?

I took that to mean Open wouldn't work, since he is doing it multiple times on the same project.

Hey Everyone,

I emailed Ted and asked for clarification. What Ted is asking is if there is a way for Band-in-a-Box or RealBand to import multiple WAV audio files in one operation.

I told Ted that neither Band-in-a-Box or RealBand presently has that capability and suggested he make the suggestion in one or both of the Wishlist forum sections.

Some DAWs and the Audacity audio file editor do have the capability to import multiple audio files in a single operation. I've copied my question and Ted's response below:

Ted,

I noticed you've asked about importing multiple files into RealBand back in March and then again today. You've also asked a similar question about Band-in-a-Box.

What's stumping people is they don't know if you're asking about importing multiple audio files or MIDI files. Based strictly off your signature I'm guessing you're asking about audio files.

I'm assuming you want to be able to select and import multiple audio files like (1) a lap steel audio file, (2) pedal steel audio file and (3) guitar.

If my assumption is correct, neither Band-in-a-Box or RealBand can presently do that.

Perhaps you would like to suggest the feature in the +++ Band-in-a-Box for Windows Wishlist +++ or the +++ RealBand Wishlist +++ forum section.

Hi Jim...

Yes exactly, they are .wav files primarily...

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!

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."
