I would think this had come up before. but I am not getting answers with the Search function. I cannot add Kontakt 7 to my VST instruments (or Komplete Kontrol for that matter.) I am seeing certain instruments emerge that REQUIRE it. Any ideas?

Sorry. Never mind. I just saw that VST3 support is slated for BIAB 2004.

But we won’t know for sure until version 2024 is released. Certainly that has become an essential feature.

As we're close-ish to the 2024 release, we'll soon know for sure, but if not, there are several VST hosts that will host VST3s and give a VST2 presentation to BIAB/DAWs/etc..
Musocity has commended the free/OpenSource "Elements" by Kushview.

vst3shell will let you use vst3 in Biab and RealBand.
vst3shell_v1.2.1.zip
vst3shell_beta.zip
You can download from the source site but only use the 3 files with "x64"
https://www.xlutop.com/buzz/zip/
Extract the folder to anywhere outside of your VST2 folder like C:\vst3shell or C:\bb\vst3shell
Add vsti3shell.x64.dll to your VSTi list.
Add vst3shell.x64.dll to your VSTFX list.

Also for advanced chaining and routing: https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=678813#Post678813

My guess is that we'll know in exactly 43 days. (Of course that's only a precision estimate grin. )

Thanks!! Worked like a charm.. Does FAR more than I expected (or probably need) but I will send a nice donation for the work. I'd never have found it without your reply.

Thanks.. Tried these (various versions) but they crashed BIAB... The Elements solution worked, so I'm good until the 2024 release.

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.
