Help, please. I'm a newby. I recorded several versions of the same song. They all played fine. Somehow I've muted several tracks (yellow text). It affects all the saved files. Reading other posts it seems MIDI related. I will not play on any song files. BIAB 2016. I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't find it. The M is not muted. I've muted all, them unmuted, rebooted, etc. The tract light above M S * shows it's playing. Help. (I Googled and only found instruction for how to give https dropbox location for screenshot. https://www.dropbox.com/s/127ha32ea8i49dg/Screen2.jpg?dl=0

So if you don't hear them it is one of two things - 1) you don't have a MIDA synth assigned to the tracks or 2) there is no midi data on the track. 3rd option is to reset to Factory Settings. Most likely number 1. By the way, it is MIDI not MIDA

Thank you. I'll give them a try. I'd tried resetting to factory settings before, but I'm certain it was a MIDA (got it right now!) setting I screwed up. I'm having probs adding instruments and finding dll files for them, like the violin and flute tracks, never got them assigned, so in that rambling I prob messed up the others.
I'd worked on this song for DAYS, and got it just right, then this!
I'm also having syncing problems. I can export the files to DAWs (Sonar, and other light ones like MixPad, I don't like Cubase because it requires me to reset the audio (Mackie) everytime), and the song plays fine in those DAWs. I want to add tracks and mix using my Zoom R16 because it has physical sliders, but the mono files come in out of sycn and I've not found a solution on the R16. R16 requires mono files.

Hi PacoAlpha, Welcome to the forums  I'm just heading off to work right now. I'll see if I can offer any suggestions when I get back home this evening. In the meantime, if you click on my name (Noel96) to the left and then 'view profile', you'll find an email address. Please send me the SGU/MGU file that you have created. That will help a great deal in trying to solve your problem. Something worth trying... Open Realband then open the songfile file in Realband. See if it plays correctly there. If it does, re-save the file with a new name (choose to save in the MGU/SGU format) and then see if the new file will open and play in BIAB. Regards, Noel

Thank you so much, Noel, and all of you. Kindness and patience is, I don't know. Something really good.
I lied my way out of work and called support. I wish I had their hours. I'd messed up the synth setting, as was suggested above, so support got me back on Coyote and all's good.
I'm still digging thru it all. Still plenty of stuff I can't seem to get going, but that's for another day.
You guys/gals take care.

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."
