Update: I may have found the problem. Under Options/Preferences/Audio/Drivers there was a 'Output always on' box checked. I unchecked this box and the strange sound when rendering a file is gone. This may be something that Version 5 of Realband is checking by default? I will test more tomorrow to verify.
----------------------------------------------- I now have a strange situation when I select Render/Merge Audio and VSTi/DXi tracks to Stereo Wave File Every time I try this I hear what sounds like the midi tracks being played real fast as the file is written. Once the file is rendered, it seems like everything is ok. I always use this method to render my files and have never heard anything like this coming out of my speakers as the file is being rendered.
My issues started this morning with errors like this: 'An exception error has occurred. You can continue to use the program, but should likely save your work and reboot program.
Access violation at address 004054EB in module 'RealBand.exe'. Write of address 006F0064.
I thought what the hell and upgraded Realband from version 3 to version 5. Still had the same 'Exception error' issue after several reboots.
So I replaced RB.CFG, Realband.INI, and Default.RWS that I had previously stored in a 'ConfigBackup' folder in Realband. This action got rid of my 'Exception Errors and Access Violations' but now I have this weird thing going on with strange sounds when I render any .SEQ file with Midi tracks in it.
I'm thinking it has something to do with my midi settings as it asked me to change these when I upgraded since it said I had no midi output selected so I picked 'Microsoft MIDI Mapper' and then checked the box for 'Re-route midi playback through default DXi/VSTi Synth' and have 'Coyote WT' as my default synth. (I'm pretty sure I have always used these particular settings on Realband)
If anyone has any ideas on what could be causing the strange sounds while rendering, I would certainly appreciate the help!

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."
