PG Music released the 2020 edition of Band-in-a-Box for Windows earlier today (11-30-2019).

Some features everyone might like include: New tempo and pitch shifting software. Multi-riff feature allows multi generations of instruments at the same time. Almost all RealDrums have notation transcription. Equalize tempo wizard allows varying song tempo to be adjusted to a fixed tempo. New harmony wizard.

New content includes 202 RealTracks including choir vocals, More midi only styles and 15 midi SuperTracks.

RealBand features essentially follow the Band-in-a-Box features however it remains a 32 bit program.

The DAW plug-in has been enhanced with additional settings, auto harmonize wizard and ability to read or write more settings with the Band-in-a-Box program. However, it remains a work-in-progress in some respects.

New for 2020 is the Loops With Styles PAK 1. Per the website: Loops-with-Style PAK 1 gives you the chance to expand your loops collection with 100 new loops! We've taken the RealDrums and RealTracks source audio and remixed, remastered, and combined it to create these original loops. All of your favorite genres are covered, like jazz, funk, rock, pop, electronic, hip-hop, and more! To show them in action, we've created 50 new RealStyles that each include two of the loops. Plus, if you use the loops in Band-in-a-Box, we've included intelligent versions of the loops that automatically switch at A and B part markers. Each loop has a matching sister loop that works perfectly for another substyle!

NOTE: Loops-with-Style PAK 1 works with the Band-in-a-Box® 2020 UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, and Audiophile Edition. It is also available for Band-in-a-Box for Mac users.

Sale pricing has been extended to January 15, 2020.

I wonder if they finally added what every steeler wants, Price shuffle style?

Ron,

No but this forum has a great set of eight Ray Price Band-in-a-Box midi styles available for $5. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=153981

If you don't have them, they're excellent. I use them all the time.

Also, I don't remember ever seeing a request for Ray Price styles in the PG Music Styles And RealTracks Wishlist forum section. If you make the suggestion, I'll support it: https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthrea ... d=6&page=1
