Using BB for Mac 2018 the audio output to my Sennheiser 4,40 headset does not work. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Hi Phil,
You'll want to make sure the headset is only selected as an Output device, not Input, in System Preferences and in Band-in-a-Box's Preferences. That'll likely solve the issue.
If not, please let us know.
Thanks Kent PG Music

Hi Kent,
Your solution works, but is it possible to warn users from within BB when using BT output/input devices. That could save a lot of time I guess.

Hi Phil,
I can submit a request to find a way for BIAB to detect when the device is using Bluetooth and display a warning.
The issue isn't so much an incompatibility with Bluetooth devices, but that BT devices work at a very low sample rate when used for input, so if selected for both input and output, the whole device uses that low sample rate, which is too low for BIAB to use.
Thanks Kent PG Music

Thanks Kent PG Music Thanks for that info, Kent. I've never been able to play BIAB on a bluetooth speaker or headphones, and that's probably why. Can't wait to try it out! Bruce

There is a MAJOR BUG in Band in a Box for Mac, which makes it not possible to listen on Bluetooth on your mac (by default).
The workaround solution is to go to Option-> Preferences-> Audio Settings-> Audio Device button, and select built in microphone on your Mac (or any other microphone just not Bluetooth).
Why didn't you fix this bug in the 2018 revision? (I reported this bug 1/2 a year ago). It is will take a developer a couple of hours and make a lot of customers happy. Other products can deal with this, why can't Band in a box??

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."
