Then, even if I used the official LOOP, the problem mentioned above still occurred. I also recorded a video and posted it above. grin

Check to see if your custom loops have bt1 or bt6 files in the same folder - they should. If not, perhaps it is an issue with the wave file format. Also, double-check you are running 1109.

I'm not sure what the issue is with the 'normal' loops, even though I watched your video - can't explain that...

Yes, these files are available (bt1 or bt6)

The video means that LOOP cannot be generated.

If yours is fine, could you please record a video with no problem? I've asked a lot of people this question.

I didn't say change the folder I said copy some of those loops to the ROOT folder and name them Loop01.wav Loop02.wav
It's not a hard thing to try to rule out any filename path issues.

ok.
I put it in the root directory, but it still doesn't work. BIAB cannot generate LOOP.

You later said it was my problem.

But I had no problem before 2023.

The same file works on my PC, the same file will not work on your PC
What is the different ?

Your folder is D:\BB\RealTracks\Loops
mine is E:\bb\RealTracks\Loops

your version is 1009
mine is 1009

are you running Biab from D: or C: ?

I run from C: and have tracks on E:\bb

It's not possible. I have tried to modify it. The problem is not generating.

So it was generating in 2023 but not in 2024 ? so all 2024 1003-1009 versions don't work ?
Are there any loops that work all the time ?

This has ACID info embedded is does not use AcidInfo.txt biab/Bass-4beats-Croot-90bpm.zip

Fortunately you don't have much time to devote to Biab.

It doesn't matter to you or me but to some it may be an important part of their workflow. Plus if it is supposed to work then it should work.

Do the loops work in the BB VST in Studio One ? Studio One should handle loops natively shouldn't it ?
You just need to wait until it's fixed, as I said they are probably all working on the Mac version now.
Necessity is the mother of invention that's why I use Reaper from years of frustration with Biab/RB I was forced to it, as I can script something the same day to do what I need, so the sooner I get the tracks out of Biab the more control I have. Studio One NEEDS to openly release all the scripting info rather than having to have CIA clearance to access it.
I was having issues with Biab not being able to change loops at any bar in the past so I made a script to do it in Reaper:

I added and removed Loops to the Loops folder and they did not show even after a restart, BUT when I went to the Styles Tab and did a rebuild of Styles and RealTracks they all showed up so maybe try a rebuild.

That's exactly it, I also added various and varied loops and after rebuilding the styles they are widely usable. Logical as we know that the reconstruction verifies the RT and RD. So also the loops.

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."
