For example, in the key of C major. If I input an Fm, the Fm will automatically turn green after input. WIN10 20H2, AMD R4800H ,16G , 2T ,FOCUSRITE 2i4 MKII，Studio One,FL STUDIO

Can you define ‘voiceover’ in a different way? In your example, no, BIAB does not do that. Can you tell us why this would be helpful. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile.

See examples below. Honestly, Scaler does this so well, there is simply no reason for BIAB to duplicate it, IMO. The real wish here is for BIAB to play nicer with Scaler in terms of cutting and pasting chord sequences between the two.

The real wish here is for BIAB to play nicer with Scaler in terms of cutting and pasting chord sequences between the two. This exactly. I don't expect one program to do it all, like one ring to rule them all. I also don't want program developers to spread themselves thin trying to be all things to all people. Do what you do, and do it well. Identify others with the same philosophy and partner with them. For example, consider the tight integration of Melodyne into Studio One via ARA2. In Studio One's case, I wish for such tight integration with Acon Digital's Acoustica Premium Edition via its ARA2 support. There's an easy way to use it within Studio One, but extra keystrokes and/or mouse clicks are required. Plus, you've got to remember what those keystrokes and/or mouse clicks are (pointing finger at myself). I'm sure most of you are aware of Melodyne, but for those who aren't familiar with Acoustica, IMO it is the best audio editor out there. Excellent GUI. Super fast. Superior spectral editing. And for those of you who work with recording audio in less than pristine conditions, the Restoration Suite plugins included with the Premium Edition are priceless. And the Mastering Suite, Equalize, Verberate and Extract:Dialog plugins also included are a nice bonus. Acon Digital Acoustica Digital Audio Editor Last edited by TheMaartian; 03/17/24 12:55 AM.

I agree 100% with both. Many of these things are complex and if one add a new complexity onto a bunch of old complexities you get super complexity. More features -> More complexity in the code -> more bugs. ... and the bugs tend to follow permutations not combinations. (maybe a better example ... product not sum) Also, more complexity in the user interface. Last edited by Gordon Scott; 03/17/24 03:27 AM.

If RapidComposer is out scale it will be red: https://stash.reaper.fm/u/ReaTrak (Scripts for Biab Reaper) Open SGU in Reaper Instantly

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.

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."
