I am running the latest BIAB in Windows 7 64-bit SP1.

I use the Focusrite Pro14 Firewire audio interface in ASIO mode.

I have no problems setting up the playback sample rate to 48 kHz in DAWs like Live 8.3 or Sonar Producer Expanded X1d (535) but sometimes have trouble with other applications.

That's because the Focusrite Control panel won't always show up or launch from some apps for some reason (?!).

BIAB is like that. I can't get the audio control panel for Focusrite to launch so that I can adjust the audio sample rate to 48kHz.

As a result, I can only use the default 44.1 kHz sample rate.

I tried running BIAB as administrator and everything else I can think of, but I can't get 48kHz sample rate.
I also tried looking in the registry for something that might be a default sample rate.

Any ideas?

Jim,

BIAB is a 44.1 kHz application. Maybe that has something to do with it. With this in mind, it might pay to drop support@pgmusic.com an email and ask.

AFAIK BIAB won't run at 48k. I even tried this on my MOTU. I can access my MOTU software from the ASIO button in BIAB and can change the sampling rate on the MOTU there to 48k and watch it change on the face of the MOTU unit, but as soon as I hit OK it changes back to 44.1.

Hi,

That's correct, Band-in-a-Box only works in 16bit/44.1. RealBand supports other sampling rates, but if you changed the sampling rate in your interface's control panel, it would only make BIAB's playback sound funny.

Thanks

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.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
