Hi,
I am trying to use the Cakewalk TTS synth in Biab 2015 and can't get it loaded. I have J-Bridge installed and it is working ok as I can load Sampletank3, but not TTS1. Any ideas?

Have you set it up to be the default synth in the settings?

That's how I set mine up and it loads automatically every time I start up. It works for both BB & RB.

I removed Sampletank3 and tried to reload it but it didn't work, so it looks like my J-Bridge is the problem. Do I have to install it in the BiaB folder or is it ok in the standard C:\Programs?

On my system, TTS-1 installed as a DXi (not VSTi), which means it wouldn't use jBridge.

What did you install TTS-1 from (Music Creator, Sonar, etc). Did you happen to install the 64-bit version instead of the 32-bit version?

What John said

it is a DXi (NOT VSTi) and if you installed it as a 64-bit it will not work but you can have your "cake" and eat it too, so to speak see this thread

I installed Music Creator 7 in windows 7 64bit, which I assume has installed the 64bit version of TTS-1. SO if I understand correctly this will not work in BiaB. I'll see if I can get the 32bit version.

Chris -

See the link in Larry's post. Hopefully the TTS-1 that ships with MC7 includes both dll's, which will allow you to enable the 32-bit version without too much difficulty, but definitely read the instructions carefully.

Unfortunately it looks like I only get the 64bit version, which is a bummer because I only bought it to use the TTS in BiaB.

I managed to shortcut the "Command Center" and download the 32 bit version. BiaB recognised it immediately. smile
Thanks for the help.

Correct if you download the MC7 install app directly you can choose to install 32 or 64 bit MC7, which, in-turn, installs the 32 or 64 bit TTS-1 respectively.

BUT it will be 32-bit DXi (will show up in the Cakewalk color "green" (or is it greenish-blue). The 64 bit a VSTi/DXi's show up bluish.

BTW, the same trick, which is tedious, explained in that thread for a Sonar install will also work with MC7 install.

Note, as far as TTS-1 is concerned there is essentially ZERO BENEFIT to being 64 bit anyway, the TTS-1 sound library is the same for both 32 bit and 64 bit.

The TTS-1 sound library is the same for both 32 and 64 bit installs - and is VERY, VERY much less than the 32 bit limit of ~4GB.

On the other hand, if MC7 is installed as 64-bit that allows you to use OTHER 64 bit plugins (like 64 bit Kontakt or ST3 or 64 bit VST/DX audio FX plugs) so.....

Good Luck
Larry

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.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
