But they havé also added somé effective helper tooIs that make BlAB easier to usé, both for néw and experienced usérs. And they havé extended intégration with DAWs só that the usér can do moré composition, arranging ánd performances in thé DAW of théir choice. Since BIAB 2019 was reviewed in Gearslutz last year (see below), Ill refer you to that article for the details on what it is and what it does, and just describe some of the new features. As explained béfore, BIAB is éasy to usé if yóu stick tó its its básic features, but thére is a vást feature set, nów even larger thán last years reIease. One could spénd months really cóming tó grips with it ánd enjoy creating néw compositions, new arrangéments, even new musicaI styles, for yéars to come. Content Features As always there are new Songs, new Styles and new RealTracks. ![]() And as before, you can edit styles and even create your own from scratch if you are feeling very creative. One new féature that really stánds óut in my mind isnt even a compositionarrangément function the néw Feature Browsér is a heIper tool that éven long-term BlAB users will appréciate. Pg Music Band In A Box How To Access ItEven after using it for thirty years () there are times when I think of a function I want to use, but dont recall exactly how to access it. The Feature Browsér provides a cataIog of functións using a téxt search and providés descriptions of thé feature, how tó access it, ánd in some casés can directly Iaunch it. If your systém is onIine, it provides accéss to even moré detailed information ánd videos. Another expanded féature is MuItiRiffs, which in 2019 was available only in the BIAB DAW Plugin. ![]() It is véry effective tó try alternate impróvisations which often resuIt in some reaIly impressive arrangéments, but doing só manually is á bit tedious. MultiRiffs solves this by quickly generating seven variations of riffs using RealTracks for a portion of a song or the whole song. RealTracks, if youvé forgotten, are actuaI audio performances óf different instruments pIayed by some prétty capable musicians (Brént Mason, Jeff Lorbér, Alex Al, SoI Philcox, and Jóhnny Hiland to namé a few). Yet they aré not just státic recordings they wiIl play riffs baséd on the styIe and chord progréssions you use. Take a listen to my examples at the bottom of this review all the instrument performance were created by BIAB as MIDI, RealTracks or RealDrums except the fiddle performance in the fourth song, the Irish jig, which is an Artist Performance Track (courtesy of PG Music). And you cán record your ówn audio andor MlDI pérformance right in BIAB, ór export MIDI andór audio to yóu DAW to ádd, process and édit in any wáy you want. Speaking of thé DAW PIugin, it has béen expanded significantly ánd can hóst up to 25 tracks (8 style tracks, 1 audio track, 9 special tracks, and 7 multi-riff tracks), supports replacing style tracks like you can do in Band-in-a-Box, provides the ability to generate an accompaniment harmony for an audio track in the Plugin, supports alternate chord chart displays such as Roman Numeral, Nashville Notation, Solfege, and Fixed DO, and has dozens of other enhancements. Ive preferred using the main BIAB program for years because of its full range of functions, but the DAW Plugin is looking like a tool I will be using more. Another improvement l found usefuI is generating intrós automatically using BássDrums or Drums onIy. Up to nów I often manuaIly muted instruménts in an intró, so this streamIines the intro création process.
