Since macOS Ventura was only just recently released, we are currently in the middle of testing Band-in-a-Box 2022 on this OS. So far testing has been going well. But at the moment, the 2022 version is officially compatible up to macOS Monterey.

The main program works fine, but the DAW plugin does not work.

Correction, sort of: The DAW plugin seems to work fine with Reaper.

My 2021 for Mac AudioPhile DAW plug in doesn't load Tracks.
Bummer...

I wonder if I can load tracks into Logic 10.7.5 from the app, which works fine for me?
I'll have to see what I can do without a DAW Plug in...

Hope this is fixed soon, thanks!

IF you run the standalone plugin version (located in Band-in-a-Box | BBPlugin | Files) can you generate tracks? And can you then drag these tracks into your DAW? Also test to see if it makes a difference if the Saved Tracks folder is set to your internal Mac HD instead of the external USB drive.

I tested this on an M1 machine with Ventura, and can duplicate this problem. This is only an issue with the native silicon version of the plugin for some reason. There is a workaround until we can figure out what happened on Ventura. The following patch is the same as the latest Band-in-a-Box build 609 patch, except that it includes DAW Plugin build 4.6.15, which runs under Rosetta 2 and works on Ventura.

Download Build 609 and DAW Plugin 4.6.15:

You need to run the stand alone plugin. It is in your main BiaB folder - BBPlugin_4.6.15

Thanks. It actually works as a standalone plugin. However, inside Logic Pro X 10.7.5, unfortunately still not. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Hi, it does work in Logic, that's the first thing I checked. It will not work if you open the plugin from within Logic though. Open Logic, then manually open the plugin from within the BiaB plugin folder. Generate and drag as per usual.

I added the new standalone plugin to my dock to make things easier until this is fixed by PG Music.

Confirm that the version of the plugin you have open in Logic is 4.6.15.

I edited my post so that it has a link to a patch that specifically installs build 609 with plugin version 4.6.15.

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."
