When I plug in my brand-New SD4, XP recognizes it by name, and prompts for a driver. Anyone know where I find this ?? It is nowhere obvious on the Ketron site ....

TIA

I purchased a Ketron SD 2 with an Edirol Midi / USB Interface recently. As I remember, the Driver was contained on a DVD included in the packaging of the Interface. I hope this helps.

There is no driver, at least not as a separate piece of code.

SD-4 is a totally Class Compliant device for USB. See pg 30 of the SD-4 manual.

I just plugged mine in and the OS (XP SP3) recognized it as "USB Audio Device) inside BIAB's MIDI Output and Input selection window.

Of course, you must plug the USB line into the computer before starting up BIAB or any other host program in order to be able to see that.

The SD-4 also actslike a USB MIDI connection to the computer via its round MIDI connectors in back, too. You can hook your keyboard to the SD-4's MIDI input and route the keyboard's output to the USB input (Thru) in a program like BIAB, thus eliminating the need for a separate MIDI connect to the computer.

No driver needed. Incidentally, it worked the same when connected to my Macbook Pro's USB port when testing the new BB for Mac.

I figured it out after MUCH research !!

If anyone has a Logitech Quickcam and needs to use the USBAUDIO XP driver, here are the steps !: Don't take any shortcuts. I tried just deleting all the "?????filters" in my registry and had to do an image restore.. got it up now. Thanks !!

1. Go into the registry editor (go to Start Menu, Run and type regedit)

2. Go to this location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} and delete the two items "LowerFilters" and "UpperFilters"

3. Go to this location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{6BDD1FC6-810F-11DO-BEC7-08002BE2092F} and delete the item "LowerFilters"

4. Go to this location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{6BDD1FC5-810F-11DO-BEC7-08002BE2092F} and delete the item "UpperFilters"

5. Move back to the root of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\

6. Launch a search (i.e Ctrl F with the option to search in "Data") and type "LVUSBSTA". For any place found (only in the "Control\Class" area), just delete the "LowerFilters" item (it is the item that contain the value LVUSBSTA found). For me, I didn't find any other places than the ones mentioned here.

7. Then uninstall the midi device driver, unplug it and plug it back in. Windows should recognise it and install it and it should work!

So a Logitech "Quickcam" gets in the way of Class Compliant USB MIDI devices?

And it requires a registry edit to fix?

Man.

That is crazy.

Blame Logitech?

Yeah .. The Logitech Quickcams have built-in USB mikes (that work really well !!) Actually , they are great cameras too, and nearly everyone has one, but they take a hold of USBAUDIO.SYS and tweak it and twist it for their own nefarious purposes.

I ended up buying this one for Vista, only to dump Vista to go back to XP. From the looks of the Windows 7 BETA, It looks like I may be sticking with XP until Windows 8 !!! I'm just not seeing reason to replace all my perfectly-working hardware ...

But this looks liek time for a Creative HD Webcam purchase !

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."
