I need to understand this one. Has been a little frustrating and time consuming.
E.G =AWAKEGF New Age. The Song Memo says ****** Song Summary ************* Title: Untitled Song Key=C , Tempo 65, Length (m:s)=6:05 No intro. 32 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 32. Repeat x3 choruses No Melody No Soloist track. Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0, Style is =AWAKEGF.STY (New Age, str/fpk guit. (65 RT)) Style MIDI Instruments are : Bird Tweet (124), Synth Strings 1 (51), RealTracks in style: ~364:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 065 RealTracks in style: ~368:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 065 MIDI Drums :1 Standard Drum Kit (1) *******************
B and P are RTs. D G S are Midi and show as yellow. However, the D and G tracks have no sound. i.e. empty.
So my q is ...are there many midi styles in the BIAB styles library whether they be =,pure midi styles where the tracks 'really' don't have anything in them?
Here is my scenario.... I load up a style. Then I want to use "Select Custom midi style for this track" command (via right click on e.g. G). Next ...the Assign menu. I choose a sty where the Memo says it has a given instrument. BUT in reality, nothing exists in that chosen style. This has happened many times for me.
I hope I haven't confused everybody with the above explanation.

I work mostly in MIDI and I have never had a style that didn’t work. I own all of the MIDI styles.
The sounds you hear are dependent on your MIDI sound source. Some are not GM compliant and may not have all of the GM sounds in them. Select a GM DXi or VSTi and things should be OK.
If you have a GM sound source then check out if the sounds you want are in them. Some so called GM MIDI sets are not, someone has modified them but did not change the name. Possibly you have a bad download of the set, that happens.
What MIDI GM DXi or VSTi are you using? I assume it is selected as you get the string sound out of it. The two sounds you are missing, I’m assuming the Bird Tweet and the Drums, are two that are usually missing from a incomplete GM set.
If you are positive that you have all the sounds in the GM sound set then try a BiaB factory reset. If that doesn’t work then it may be time to reinstall those styles.
All of the above assumes that you own the style(s) that you are trying to use.
I hope this helps and good luck.
If you need help fell free to ask.
I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!

Hi, I think with all the suggestions, I have this one licked. Thank you.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
