This was by AudioTrack, but I reckon it's now the wee small hours for him, so I'll post in his stead... Actually. I often wish PGM would show a visual routing mapping diagram that shows what goes where with all of the inter-connectivity. This would really help users visualize the actual data paths. A block diagram would be ideal. +1

Yes, some form of block diagram showing the inter-connectivity of the various components and signal paths would really assist to articulate the interaction and take away a lot of confusion. This could be a simple block diagram, not necessarily complex, just something that shows where MIDI enters BIAB and where BIAB processes it and then sends it to, as well as how Audio is received and the relevant path(s) it follows. +1 (Great suggestion, Gordon, I like it  )

Great minds think alike  This is a great idea. And if needed I can build the diagram; I just need someone to describe the signal paths.

+1 for MIDI and Audio signal path through Band-in-a-Box flow.
However this is only 1/2 of equation. You should be able to route things too. Like Midi plugin to a sound producing VSTi for example. Chain.

Agreed, this would be the most ideal, but that might have to be version 2. As background, I suggested this to one of the very senior developers at PG Music quite a few years ago, and the reply was that it was a good idea, but they weren't sure how to achieve it.

To do this right it has to have routing, otherwise it's just a facade .... For such complex software as BIAB, routing and visualizing what you are doing is needed. Ironically, some stuff you can re-route, some don't.
P.S. Something similar to VST router "Element".

Ironically, some stuff you can re-route, some don't. I'm not debating that. However it is better to have something rather than nothing. At least initially.

In my experience, once "something" is out it is extremely hard to convince to finish it the right way. My point is, that even if this (routing map of signals) will be considered, a thought should be given how easy it would be to add re-routing options, so all the efforts to make that map will not have to go to waste, and could be used as foundation for something bigger.

When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
