Hi, is this a windows program? I have seen it on my iPhone, but can't get it
to work with voiceover.
Where do you get the program and is there a cost?
Thank you,
Pshon

Mike,
I looked into this a bit and here is what I think:
* In the Control+F9 dialog to find a style, you can indeed search for
a song.
* Once you find a song you want you can tab to the "Load Song" button
and activate it. This will load the song into BIAB.
* If you hit escape, the song you chose will now be in BIAB.
* A caveat: Usually, this will just include the backing tracks to the
song according to the artist selected, i.e., you won't get the melody. This
is because melodies are copyrighted while chord changes are not.
* Going back to the control+F9 dialog for selecting a style, you can
also tab to the "Find Songs" button after typing in a song name into one of
the edit fields.
* If you activate the Find Songs button you will see a list of songs.
* Arrow down to the song you want to select it.
* Now tab through this dialog and you will find a number of buttons
that will take you to various web pages where you can listen to or download
the song.
* People on this list have recommended a program called Ponte (or
something similar, I don't remember) that will let you copy in the URL to a
song on YouTube and then automatically download an mp3 version of the
YouTube video.
I hope that helps.

Hi. Thanks for replying. As to my second question: When picking a style
Cntrol f9, There's a tab that states, "pick a popular song and I can use
that style. I write the name, and click. I'm taken to a website that has
names of songs. Do I just click on that song stitle to get the style/?
I'm not very tech savvy. Just curious.

I don't know anything about Real Band but don't think it is very accessible
with a screen reader. When I want to mix tunes from Band-in-a-Box I render
the BIAB tune with each instrument on a separate file and then pull these
files into another DAW such as Sonar, Samplitude, or Reaper.
As for the downloads, I don't know which files you are talking about.
Perhaps you could provide a URL or description about what exactly you are
trying to download.

I'm using it pretty well, but don't have a clue about Real Bands. Is there a
tutorial? Also not having luck downloading the recorded songs from website.
Any help appreciated.
Mike
