I must reload the midi track, then replace with a real track again and (Re)-generate, it'll work. It's pain. Last edited by Vincente; 11/04/19 02:53 PM. WIN11 OS build 23H2, 16MB, 1TG SSD.

I would do this by creating a new style from scratch, simply choosing what I want on each track. No doubt there is probably a way to edit the style, but my way doesn’t take much effort.

Right-click on the BIAB start-up icon and select "Run as administrator". 3. Open your saved style and see if BIAB works correctly. Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

"Run as administrator" is not the same as logging into Windows as administrator. So, if you didn't try "Run as admin", it is still worth a try. Also, have you excluded your \bb folder from being checked by your anti-virus software? Not doing this can cause issues sometimes. That said, when Windows starts doing something that it never used to, "Return to factory" is always a good thing to try. This is found under the "Options" menu on the uppermost menu bar. Use the "MOST" settings to begin with. (It's a good idea to save your current settings before returning to factory settings. The option to do this is also under the Options menu.) Lastly, have you tried changing MIDI to Realtracks in two or three different songs? It could be that the songfile you are working from has some kind of glitch.

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.
