RealBand® 2026 is Here!
RealBand 2026 introduces several workflow and audio-engine enhancements. Grid display options and window title stylings have been updated, more accurate master-volume handling, improved tablature export, synchronized track heights, and new MIDI-transcription capabilities in both the Stem Splitter and AI Notes dialogs. In addition, support for Add2 chords in MGU/SGU files has also been added.
Summary of New Features
The Grid Lines options in the context menu of the Tracks window and Audio Edit window now include a new Bar Lines Only setting.
Title bars for non-floating windows no longer display the older theme style (in RealBand 2025 and earlier this was a blue title bar with a red X close button).
The Master Volume control on the bottom toolbar of the main screen is now applied at the very end of the audio chain. This prevents situations where lowering the master volume made Aux-bus-processed tracks disproportionately louder, and ensures that lowering the setting no longer reduces the signal feeding the master output effects.
A new “Save bends when saving tablature” option (for XML export) allows bends to be written into the XML file. Note: This is primarily intended for reloading into PG Music programs. Other software may interpret XML bends differently, and results may vary.
When resizing track height with the mouse in the Tracks window, holding Ctrl while releasing the mouse now resizes all tracks to match the height of the track you adjusted.
The Stem Splitter dialog now supports transcribing stems to MIDI.
The new AI Notes dialog can both transcribe audio to MIDI and generate stems.
Added support for Add2 chords when loading MGU and SGU files.
