50 New Features!
Band-in-a-Box 2010 has over 50 cool new features.
We’ve added a new “Plug-in” mode, allowing you to simply Drag-and-drop
tracks between Band-in-a-Box and your favorite sequencer (GarageBand,
ProTools, Logic, Nuendo, Reaper and more).
RealTracks are better than ever!
RealTracks generate much faster now, typically 4X faster. RealTracks now
support Shots, Holds, and Pushes. Endings are improved, and RealTracks
endings are now 4 bars long, giving time for the natural decay of the
instruments. Individual MIDI or RealTracks can be frozen now, so the
arrangements can be saved and fixed, and will replay quickly without need for
regeneration. Soloist RealTracks are now saved with the song.
And much more…
We’ve added Multiple Undo support, up to 999 levels of Undo. There are new
Reverb and Bass/Treble controls for each track, allowing you to add these to
individual RealTracks. All settings are now saved with each song.
