Band-in-a-Box 2012, RealBand 2012 and 101 New RealTracks for Windows

Band-in-a-Box 2012  allows a different VSTi or DXi softsynth to be assigned to each track  for multiple synths playing on a song. Up to four VST or DX audio  plug-ins, like reverb and delay, can be applied to each individual track. The AmpliTube® CS guitar amp simulator is included  along with over 150 “Direct Input” guitar based RealTracks. These clean  DI guitar recordings can be customized, so all of the added effects come  from the guitar amp simulator – or any other VST or DX plug-in. The new “Loops” feature plays an audio loop on any  track, and individual MIDITracks can now be taken from any Band-in-a-Box  style and played on a track in your song. Other new features include  updates and streamlining for popular features like the StylePicker, Notation, and more. And there have been updates to  the “BB Remote” app, which controls the desktop version of  Band-in-a-Box from an iPhone®, iPad®, or Android device.

In announcing the  release of Band-in-a-Box 2012, program author and creator Peter Gannon  said, “Band-in-a-Box 2012 is more powerful than ever. Now users can  apply their full array of VST and DirectX plug-ins and softsynths to Band-in-a-Box tracks, along with the backing of 101  new Jazz, Country, and Pop/Rock RealTracks recorded by top studio  musicians.”

Band-in-a-Box 2012 for  Windows includes RealBand 2012 – a full-featured DAW and Band-in-a-Box  accompaniment generator – with over 40 new features including  MultiRiffs, the ability to generate up to seven “same but different” versions of a RealTrack at once and use one or all of  them in the arrangement.

The award-winning  Band-in-a-Box is an intelligent automatic accompaniment program for  Windows or Mac. Just type in the chords for any song using standard  chord symbols (like C, Fm7, or C13b9), choose the style you’d like, and Band-in-a-Box does the rest, automatically generating a  complete professional-quality arrangement of piano, bass, drums, guitar,  and strings or horns in a wide variety of popular styles plus optional  live audio tracks with RealDrums and RealTracks - audio instruments that replace the MIDI track with actual recordings  of top studio musicians.
