For example Pianist Performance Series which are 4 programs: Latin Pianist, Modern Jazz Pianist, Blues Pianist, New Age Pianist, all of them throw a compatibility error that cannot be solved with any of the backward compatibility settings of Windows 64 when try to run the installers or the program itself (copied from a W32 previous installation) I think the versions I have are too old since I checked the actual product page and it read: System Requirements for Windows, Windows® XP / Vista / 7/8 / 8.1 / 10 (32 or 64-bit) Is there a way to solve the 64 bit compatibility issue or is a must update those applications? In that case how can I update them? The ones that interest to "rescue" the most are Pianist Performance Series, Jazz guitar and Jazz Soloist. NOTE: Installers have the same problem, so what I did was copy the original programs installation folders from Windows 32 to Windows 64. Carlos

I am using Band in a Box since Version 5 (at that time on Atari) and have a collection of Bonus CDs that came with my Megapaks 2004, 2006, 2010, 2011 and 2012. Now I am at UltraPak 2020 (before Ultrapak 2018 and 2019) and awaiting the German Version made available by m3c. This aforementioned Bonus disc are useless meanwhile, as far as I understand because there is no 16Bit subsystem any longer in Windows 10. But I still would like to use a small part of them. That would be: - Copy Me Piano- Volume 1 Basics, Harmony and comping - Jazz Piano MasterClass with miles Black Disc two I started playing the piano recently and bought the Beginner Piano MasterClass Volume 1 to replace the useless Bonus disc I already had and bought the Blues Pianist Volume 1. I would be more than happy if PG Music could replace “Copy Me Piano- Volume 1” and “Jazz Piano MasterClass” with working Versions. Is there a way?

That such old stuff is still supported and I got a free update is a kind of service that is unusuall this days. To buy this new would have been a small amount, but it is the spirit that matters. Highly appreciated. “Musicians”: UltraPak 2024 DAW: StudioOne Pro 6.5 "Instruments": VSTs and REs Notation: Notion 6 Interface: NI Komplete Audio 6 Mic: RØDE NT1-A Controller: Panorama P6/KAWAI VPC1/Atom OS: Win 10 64 Pro
