Hi all.
I'm getting this horrible clipping buzz at the end of every song with real tracks. I've never experienced this in any other version.
Anyone else? Any solutions?
Thank you in advance!

Can you describe your audio setup and provide a sample of the buzz?

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Well I'm not sure how to provide (capture the buzz) but it's done it everytime on every song with real tracks only since 2024 as I stated. I can tell you it's very loud and dimes out the mixer.
Also, I'm not able to post a screenshot here which seems weird.
I don't know how to post the audio buzz even if I captured it. Maybe because I don't understand the forum either.

I'm using a Focusright Scarlett 212 3rd gen interface.
At the moment I have audio settings on WAS instead of ASIO but either way I get the buzz.
The buzz appears on the Drum channel and the vibes channel in this case.
Also buzz occurs whether I have vsti/dxi checked or not.

Can you post the buzz to SoundCloud?

And to upload a screenshot hit "Attachment Manager".
I usually use .jpg format

I can't figure out how to record it right now sorry. I was hoping it was a problem that others had with 2024 and could just tell.
I tried to record it with reaper but cant get reaper to sound so I'm screwed.

Ok, try this. The recording is crap just mic from speaker but you'll hear the buzz at the end. This is the best I could do before work.

Yep, I can definately hear and see it.
I've never experienced this.

It is repeatable at the end of any RealTrack?
And it happens only with BiaB 2024? Meaning, you can play buzz-free audio from YouTube, Windows Media Player and Reaper?

It could be a 60 Hz hum caused by a cable problem somewhere but that seems unlikely since it happens only with 2024 and you say it only happens at the end of the song.
This tells me it's software related.
Have you recently installed any other new software?
You might try resetting to factory settings and do a full system reboot and virus scan.
Are you running BiaB on an external drive?

Can I ask if you found a solution for this please? I have exactly the same problem - have just upgraded to 2024 (Windows) and get the same loud ‘buzz’ generated at the end of every song.
I haven’t updated/downloaded anything else and I’ve never had this issue before and the problem can only be something associated with the upgrade - too much of a coincidence to be anything else!

There's a post in the Windows section that has gotten the attention of the folks at PG. Know they'll get on top of it soon.

Yes, the problem was resolved happily.
Two factors: Make sure you install everything. Secondly, make sure you reboot your system afterwords. There was no prompt to reboot and in my excitement I just dove into the program. I tend not to reboot often. I hate to admit it but that solved the problem. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one and it definitely was specific to this install. Let us know if the reboot works.

Thanks for update. I re-booted after install and, as far as I’m aware, correctly installed all the updates. I’ll double-check the install later in case I’ve missed something.

Nope. Still got the problem, but maybe not do consistently now. I thought it had gone away when I took a look last night, but it started again this morning. I haven’t had a chance to make a proper investigation yet, but, So far as I can see, the noise occurs on the drum track - right after an auto generated 2-bar ending. Don’t know yet if it’s always the drum track and whether it only happens when an auto end is used.

Well, since this is a song showcase forum, it's not going to be the BEST place to get help with a technical issue. I'd recommend opening the Live Chat link at the top of this page. They can walk you through the setup basics and help you with the next steps. Don't give up...it's worth it!

So sorry, for starting this in the song showcase forum. That's my bad!
The issue has returned so I'll try to move it to another thread.

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.

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."
