It seems I have to keep posting on this as it's not being understood by some and is being knocked. A lot of it's got to do with PG being scared stiff of offending old users with this modern software because they are still running really old computers and may be just be using the BBPlugin in PowerTracks on Win98. In the demo below Reaper is using 76meg RAM 0% CPU Reaper-Host32bit 13meg playing direct from a PG WD USB 3.0 hard drive, using EnergyXT 32bit 2005 VSTi playing 1 RealDrum & 8 RealTracks of random sections, would do a lot more but takes too much time putting them all in. This is how the BBPlugin needs to work to give INSTANT GENERATE & PLAY. At the moment there is too much time waiting for it to generate up unnecessary wav files filling up the hard drive. If you still have to use bbw4 though I would recommend getting away from it, you could get bbw4 just to write the section data to the SavedTracks folder (like the same data that is saved for frozen SGU) that would then give the Plugin the sections to play from in the original files. bbw4 would need to append the current track's section data file in the SavedTracks folder if a new section of it is regenerated in the BBPlugin. So rather than having wav files filling up the SavedTracks folder bbw4 will just do the first step without generating up to RAM then rendering to wav it will just generate the txt files for each track, the txt files will contain the wav/wma/m4a file name, the start and end time of the section, the transpose and stretch amount, the BBlugin will then playback those sections same as EnergyXY VSTi in the pick below. All you have to do is download Reaper (free to try n try) and try what I have show, learn how it works, you can't learn from RealBand how it works as it's destructive editing. Full Screen

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."
