The biggest eyesore and real estate parasite is the "radio bar" at the top. I added that as a feature request back in July - id# 4735 I dig it. At this point, nobody, except for PGM, knows what 2025 might bring. Lots of excellent ideas have been put forward though. Soon

Even the "The minimal mode's Custom tab " does not allow me to rename the tab, and does not allow me to create more than 1. Also is would be nice if I could move the toolbar to where I want, floating would be good if it could stay where I put it. I would just like to see, users be able to customize (hide/show, move and pin windows, create toolbars) BiaB to their needs Robert

Robert,
I requested "modular" approach for quite some time. Recent 2024 BIAB introduced many floating (non modal / non jailed) windows that let you work on the project, make changes in views (Chords, track, Audio) and on actual floating tool windows without the need of closing them. In my humble opinion, the time is perfect to tune up GUI and modular is the way to go, as you can cook your own interface (or use a factory default). In any case, this could be an interesting discussion. Please use Jim's link and start a thread. I will definitely support your particular request or something broader.

WOW, what an incredible response.
We are nearly there with this years release and I am hoping it's Not just a pile of Real Tracks again., plus a few features. I was enthralled at the efforts made by Steinberg in v14 and Sequoia Pro is amazing. I've tinkered with AI music but it has a long, long way to go.
What will impress me is more attention to Midi and an improved Melody maker with a lot more choice. More attention to emotive tracks and some new Soloists that are not Jazz influenced for once. Counterpoint in Strings sections with more emotive expression, not just bland. This would convince me to stay with the one piece of software I have been with since floppy disks.
Seasons Greetings to all.

We should see something new soon, right? This is my first year back after many years away and I didn't really follow the update schedule before that.
It looks like last year there was an announcement around December 5th. The year before that it was November 30th, and the year before that it was December 2nd. I think those were also in the Tuesday - Wednesday - Thursday range.
Added: the year before that was November 28th, so we're already on the late side of the range in the past 4 years.

Does anyone know if there is a list of which bugs that have been fixed in the 2025 release. I can't find any.
In patches during during the year there is often a list with the issues/bugs etc that have been fixed.
I wonder if it is a similar list available for the major 2025 BIAB release.
