Could someone please post a link or tell me what is the difference between these?
UltraPlus-Pak or Everything-Pak
Thank you, Wayne, (a bit confused by all the pop-ups)

I have the everything pack but as far as I can tell is the Ultra pack is missing 2 of the soloists #12&13. Also you DO NOT get the Video tutorial packs & songs & lessons pack.

Scrolling down the comparison page a little gives a nice chart that is easier to understand than the popups, as far as the basic differences.

The songs and lessons pak is nice if you use them..
I *think* that includes the fakebook, some ear-training and other goodies..
I have the everythingpak so it is hard to tell what is missing when it isn't missing!

So other than the Video Tutorials, the only real program stuff missing is soloists #12&13.
Hmm. Still thinking. I have to give them a call.
Thanks Brian and all, Wayne

Not sure about this, but I watched the new video and it showed a new feature that shows the actual scales for the chords. It mentions that this is good for learning improv. Oh yeah, without a doubt. Looks easier for me than memorizing all the modes, but I'm still in that learning mode (pun intended). Not sure if those scales are part of the learning segment of the package. I'm going for the Everything Pak.

How did they choose these scales, with what criteria? It's not like there is only ONE scale one can use with any given chord.

Sam, there appears to be a choice of two modes. Watch the video; it shows it pretty well toward the middle.

This feature is not a full scale syllabus, but should come in handy for the absolute noob at it.

I brought that up during the beta testing, would like to see more scale/mode options, perhaps that will happen in the future.

Just ordered my 2011 UltraPlusPAK... Let's see when it gets here! I haven't even explored all the changes from the 2010 version yet... there's sooo much there, but I don't want to miss anything just in case! LOL. In 2008 I bought the EverythingPAK so I have the usual suspects in there... I really like the JAZZ GUITAR SOLOS 1,2 3 & 4 sets... I keep that in a different directory as I don't want to overwrite it with each upgrade...

Those Jazz Guitar Solos whould not overwrite when installing a new version of BiaB.

For years I have just simply installed each new version into the same BB folder, right overtop. Have never lost a single song or previously purchased upgrade.

This is a wonderful thing about the BB installer that I've grown to love.

Thanks Mac. I was just wondering about that when I read your post. I'm glad that I don't have to copy/move a bunch of my own biab stuff to another drive or folder.

Yes!. I've been using those JGS 1-4 for years. It's got to be my favorite software of all time, as far as use goes. Sounds pretty good with the old Hypersonic softsynth.

There's just a whole lotta guitar lines in there. NIce breezy stuff.
