PG Music has updated the Mac version of Band-in-a-Box 2009.5 to Build 8 and the Windows version to Build 287 Beta.
Changes in BIAB Mac:
- Added: Renders of individual MIDI tracks to AIFF/m4a files.
- Added: Render dialog gives a message indicating render is happening, also offers to open Finder window when completed.
- Changed: Spacebar click when on bar 1 will start with the count-in, all other bars start from that bar.
- Fixed: When RealTracks were set to a slower tempo than original, sometimes there would be a brief sound of realTracks playing prior to bar 1.
- Fixed: ctrl-spacebar fixed (does a replay from the beginning, regardless of the position of the bar).
- Fixed: LoadNextStyle message removed.
- Changed: Favorite song/style don't launch the file-open dialog if there are no songs selected.
- Improved: Soloist partial range improved - auto sets the radio button when the button is pressed, and launches the dialog.
- Fixed: Soloist dialog list was too big and text became garbled if All checkbox was selected.
- Fixed: AudioMemo button gets drawn on wrong window, instead of the song memo.
- Fixed: VideoMemo button fixed, for a file called MySong.MGU if a file called MySong_VideoMemo_1.MOV is present, a Video Memo button appears on the Song Memo, and this launches the memo.
- Fixed: Languages other than English are now disabled (was causing a conflict on some systems).
- Fixed: Long styles names on the main screen were sometimes bleeding into the tempo area.
Changes in BIAB Win:
- Fixed: Simultaneous Audio and MIDI recording - various fixes. To record audio and MIDI together, either use the menu on the audio window, or Shift-Click on the Record Audio button. A message to this effect is added in the audio record dialog. Also now reports the correct number of MIDI notes recorded during audio/MIDI recordings, and Keep/Reject take works for Audio and MIDI.
- Fixed: When there was a mute or rest at bar 1, realtrack was making a brief sound at bar 1.
- Fixed: Song Demos for RealTracks styles sometimes weren't loading from the main screen style button.
- Changed: Song Demo button in the StylePicker loads the song, but now doesn't auto-play it (since there is a Play button already there).
- Fixed: When RealTracks were set to a slower tempo than original, sometimes there would be a brief sound of realTracks playing prior to bar 1.
- Fixed: Favorite will open if OKToAutoAddRecentFiles is false (or shift is held).
- Changed: File-New command or exiting the RealTracks dialog now clears the yellow Flash Messages.
