I've got my chords plugged in to BiaB (Windows 10 BiaB 2021). Happen to be using _EAGF_GF.STY style. When I go to add a soloist the list comes up blank. I click on "Soloist Button" at top. Click on "Generate & play a solo". Click on "Best Real Tracks". The list comes up blank. It says: Swing/Feel doesn't match. Genre doesn't match. Tempo doesn't match. Time sig doesn't match, etc. My BiaB Soloists folder has 3828 files. Did I forget how to add a soloist track or is something wrong?
Old Hippie, it looks like you have a filter string active, so ultimately no soloist is displayed. You should have nothing typed in the line "Filter String" (just click on "Show All"), then all possible soloists are displayed.

The whole trick is knowing where to find it, and you have to click Reply to get there.

I got a different list. I selected Load Demo song for that style, generated, then selected Soloist > Add best RealTracks Soloist. It came up with an extensive list. (I do think you need to press the Show All button again maybe). What Pak of BiaB do you have (Pro, Mega, Ultra, Audiophile)?
BIAB & RB2024 Win.(Audiophile), Sonar Platinum, Cakewalk by Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M Monitors, Pioneer Active Monitors, AKG K271 Studio H'phones
Hi Old Hippie, it would help to know what size of PAK you have. Also, please open the Style Picker and click the Rebuild button; do a fast rebuild and see if that helps.

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.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
