As if downloading the first realtrack patch wasn't scary enough with the virus, whether it was false positive or not my computer crashed twice before I thought I'd better turn off the antivirus and get this file off the computer for now until I download the second patch. I just bought into the Group Buy for MixControl Pro and their exe file was a false positive, so I kind of knew that this was happening with this patch too. So yesterday everything was fine, I'm working on a couple of songs in BIAB, I was running the Audiophile right off the harddrive. Today I take the same laptop and try to open BIAB and I get Access violation, some kind of Rdas dll. So I tried reboot,same thing, so then I tried installing the program onto the laptop, option 2 just leaves the Realtracks on the Audiophile drive, and after I installed,same problem. So I Uninstalled the entire program, and installed Option 1 again, run it all off the BIAB harddrive. Same access violation. Can somebody from the PG staff please chime in here to tell me what I have to do to get this going again? Or anyone else who actually knows? I'm still under 30 days here so something has got to give. Thanks. On a positive note, I really like the improvements in the way the Realtracks play, the transitions are a lot smoother. On a negative note, I know by now the Gannons are a talented bunch and you'd think that they would have actually made some leaps and bounds improvements to the actual MIDI tracks, to me they sound, well, not well thought out, kind of clunky for lack of a better word. But that's probably something for the Wishlist.

If you could give the access violation it may help. The memory location number and the program it occurs in (shown in title bar). It won't mean much to users, but may to development team.


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Fivehands,

Did you shut down your antivirus software before installing?

Regards,
Noel

I'll get that to you Rharv as soon as I can, but the text for the access violation said it had something to do with Rdas.dll. I installed over a week ago Noel, and it was running fine and I had put the download patch for the missing Realtracks in there yesterday I guess, so maybe that had something to do with why it's not letting me get in. I'm going to scan that file with an antivirus and see what happens. But, I don't think I was running the antivirus when I tried the program today.

I'd suggest an evening in the distillery district. Lot's less access violations after that. I hope that tomorrow night we can hit ther e after the train frm London and then the hotel and trip way north.... North Bay will be hours behind us...

Ha ha, well OK. If you're going north of North Bay then you are in my territory. I grew up in Kirkland Lake, which is booming again by the way.

Fivehands,

Out of curiousity, what antivirus program are you running?

Regards,
Noel

I'd take the hard drive apart (just the case off eh?) and make sure everything is well connected. To be honest I would have cloned the thing and put it away.

Micro Limp never got the thing were people plugged stuff into USB ports. They have never fixed the thing where if you plug something into all the ports and then shuffle them they should work again.

So that's one angle. The drive is not quite working right.
Another is that you had that drive as the F: drive and moved it and now it's your camera / sort of.

So try those things and take 2 asprins. If you still have trouble see Dr. Gannon via help LOL

Well, now it works. And I did nothing at all except I didn't use my interface which is a Roland UA 1G or something like that. Very small and great for the laptop when I'm out and about. But it works, so gotta love those gremlins hard at work for me all night. The drive was OK because I checked it in another computer and even did a virus check. For Noel, the antivirus comes with my service provider Rogers, and I don't know who they licence it off of. Anyways, things are ok, thanks for the inputs.
I don't know where Mowaat Landing is, is that around Temagami?

Hi Fivehands,

Is the operating system on your laptop the same as on your desktop. If not then there may be different drivers needed for your Roland UA 1G to run on both systems.

My guess is that it was related to some DX plugin that the program was trying to load - perhaps you had added it to a track accidentally, and either it wasn't a valid plugin or there was some other issue with it. Something to keep in mind in case happens again.

Thanks for the replies. Lyn, I only use the UA 1G for the laptop. For my desktop I have a MOTU Traveler. It's working great now anyway. Andrew, I never use DX plugs, only VST. But I tried it again today and it booted up great. Really enjoying it. Thanks.
