I love the 2018 BIAB but am having some issues. I have been playing "song x" a lot in the past and no issues. Today when playing "song x" using the Fast Jazz Swing Poll Winners Style, the drums are about 1/2 beat behind the comping of the rest of the instruments.
On the drum track, the Offset is 0. The bass and piano offsets are 0 as well.
I tried the same Poll Winners style on other songs and the timing is fine. Just "song x" Poll Winners style has the issue. When I take "song x" and load a different style, no timing issues.
Anyone?

Hmm. I haven’t seen or read about that. My first thought would be to reboot.
You did some good troubleshooting. I wonder, perhaps check the box for “This song has problems” which would turn off the Fast Generation.
Which exact RealDrum, by number, is this? I’m not at a PC but want to check this later.
Are you using the new WAS driver? Are you on build 505?
A very remote possibility is that this specific song file is corrupted. In other words, reconstruct the song and it may be OK.
Keep us informed.

One idea to try,
Rename the song then save a copy under the new name to protect what you have.
Load the renamed song.sgu file into RealBand then save. Try the saved file in BiaB. Sometimes running the file through another program helps.

My best excuse is "the sun was in my eyes" Well, in my case i could repeat it. Start from the beginning all well, until a +1 bpm change at bar 25, from there drums lagging behind. Playback started at bar 25, all OK. -F

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!

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."
