I have a new install, build 1006 and I still have styles missing. Many categories with 50 styles or more missing based on what I'm seeing in the Style Picker. When I did the install one of my backup files, (2016 "49-Pak"), was corrupted but whoever I spoke with from support said I didn't need it.
Any help or ideas would be welcomed. Thanks.

Can you mention some of the Styles that are reported as missing? Hopefully, someone might be able to identify which Styles Pak they belong to, which would be a starting point to working out how to resolve.

Here's the most important question. Which Pak did you buy, Pro, Mega or Ultra?
I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!

Hopefully, someone might be able to identify which Styles Pak they belong to, which would be a starting point to working out how to resolve. Thanks for the reply AT. I'm not sure how I identify which styles are missing. I'm looking at the "Show all Categories" under "Categories" in the Style Picker. For example, Everything Jazz [UltraPak = 2988] [Found = 2848]. I've also looked at the "What Add-ons do I have?" The only thing I haven't purchased are the XPro Styles. Would that explain that many styles missing? Thanks much!

I'm curious though, if it states "Everything Jazz [UltraPak = 2988] [Found = 2848]", doesn't that mean the UltraPak version, (which I have), should have 2988 styles installed? Outside of the Xtra Styles PAK's? Thanks.

I'm not sure how I identify which styles are missing. A good way to identify which style sets / categories are missing, is to click on the "Other" drop-down menu in the StylePicker and choose to show only styles that are N/A. Then, sort by "Set#" and it should be clear at that point. I'm looking at the "Show all Categories" under "Categories" in the Style Picker. For example, Everything Jazz [UltraPak = 2988] [Found = 2848]. That's poorly worded, with 2023 it should really be "Total = ...", and not "UltraPAK = ..." I've also looked at the "What Add-ons do I have?" The only thing I haven't purchased are the XPro Styles. Would that explain that many styles missing? Yes that could explain it, and also the 2023 Bonus 49PAK perhaps.

Hi Andrew.
I bought the 2023 OmniPAK and I should then have everything there that is released from you up until now, right?
How do I best stay updated? Will getting the Audiophile edition upgrade for 2024 (and the following years) keep me updated on everything you release?

Hello Wiseblood, Welcome to the forum and Band-in-a-Box. It appears the 2023 OmniPAK includes all the content PG Music released to date except for the +++ Oscar Peterson Multimendia Series +++. To stay up to date you likely will need to update your Audiophile edition as well as purchase any bonus PAKs, XtraStyle PAKs and XProStyle PAKs offered each year. When a new edition is released PG Music normally offers an upgrade special that includes only material that is new for that package. This makes it easy to keep your package, the Audiophile edition in your case, up to date. However, the upgrade path is just for packages and does not include bonus or style PAKs.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
