Hallo an alle,

bei jedem Start eines bbsongs geht das Fenster "Alternativen Midi Ausgangs Treiber verwenden" auf.
In der ersten Zeile steht, daß der Ausgabetreiber korrekt intalliert ist, aber von einem anderen
Programm genutzt wird. Klicke ich in diesem Fenster auf Abbrechen, spielt bb den Song, und
es scheint alles zu funktionieren. Habe Panic-Button, Neuinstallation etc. alles schon gemacht.
Was tun?

Dank im Voraus
PS. Habe Cubase SE, das Programm ist aber nicht geöffnet.

Welchen Midi-Treiber hast Du denn eingestellt? MS GS Wavetable oder anderen? Hast Du zusätzlich einen DXI-Synthi wie Forte oder Roland aktiviert? Welche BiaB-Version und welches Betriebssystem verwendest Du?
Hast Du schon mal den "Treiber-Wizzard" (im Midi-Einstellungsdialog) versucht und läuft der ohne Probleme durch?

Gruß Ralf

Hi Ralf, vielen Dank für die schnelle Reaktion.

MS Wavetable, Roland, BB2008,Windows XP prof. und Wizzard läuft gut. Zur Ergänzung: Habe
E-MU 0202 USB als externe Soundkarte, die mit dem System und allen Programmen bestens läuft.
Es funktioniert ja auch mit BiaB. Habe nur das Problem mit dem "Treiberfenster"

Versuchs mal zunächst ohne den Roland VSC - nur mit MS GS Wavetable. Mit dem Roland wurden schon die abenteuerlichsten Fehlermeldungen berichtet. Auch die EMU-Treiber könnten ggf. die Finger im Spiel haben. Achte hier auf die aktuellste Version. Hab mal irgendwo gelesen, dass das EMU 202 zickt, weil der Treiber nicht Multiclient-fähig sei. Wenn also unter BiaB gleichzeitig Realtraks über ASIO-Audio und über MIDI Sounds ausgegeben werden, könnte die beschriebene Fehlermeldung durchaus kommen. Versuch daher auch mal, mit BiaB einen Song entweder nur mit Midi-Instrumenten oder nur mit RealTraks ohne Midi abzuspielen - jedenfalls nicht gemischt.
Obs tatsächlich am EMU liegt, kannst du auch prüfen, wenn Du statt dessen testweise ohne EMU aber mit Onboard-Karte arbeitest.
Ansonsten: BiaB auf Werkseinstellung zurück und den Midi-Treiber-Wizzard starten.

Gruß Ralf

Hallo Harilaus,

wie gut ist dein Englisch? In den FAQ ist dein Problem beschrieben:

-> http://www.pgmusic.com/techfaq17.htm#80
bzw. auch http://www.pgmusic.com/techfaq17.htm#145 oder http://www.pgmusic.com/techfaq17.htm#115 (siehe Anmerkungen im Text):

80. I get a message that a MIDI driver is "...installed properly but currently in use by another program", even though there are no other programs open.

This error will often refer to "Roland VSC", "GS Wavetable", or "No MIDI/Sound Output". Find out if you are using ASIO or MME drivers (Opt. | MIDI/Audio Driver Setup | [Audio Settings] - Audio Driver Type)

If you are using MME drivers and the error is referring to the Roland VSC, see FAQ topic 145 instead.

If you are using MME drivers and the error is referring to a driver other than the VSC (less common), see FAQ topic 115 instead.

If you are using ASIO drivers, you may get this error if there is a conflict between the ASIO driver and a (non-DXi/VSTi) software synth selected in your driver setup. This happens on some computers when using the ASIO4ALL driver. To resolve the problem, make sure that the GS Wavetable and other software synths aren't selected anywhere in your setup. In other words, select a driver other than a software synth in the Band-in-a-Box MIDI Driver Setup dialog (output driver), and in the Windows control panel | Sounds and Audio Devices | Audio (MIDI Playback). Usually if you are using an ASIO driver in Band-in-a-Box, you will also be using a DXi/VSTi synth. Leave the "Use DXi Synth" box checked. You just need to select a different output driver, it won't affect the sound through your DXi synth. Ideally, select a driver for a hardware synth on your sound card or the MIDI OUT port on a MIDI interface.

Ich hoffe, das hilft dir weiter ...

Gruß - Alex

Hi Ralf, Hi Alex,

vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe. Habe das Problem dank Eurer Tips gelöst. Es lag an E-MU und dem Asio-Treiber.

Viele Grüsse von der Insel (Kreta) und ein schönes Wochenende

Kannst Du mal kurz schildern, wo genau das Problem beim EMU-ASIO-Treiber lag bzw. was Du an den Einstellungen geändert hast?
Ein Bekannter von mir hat sich das EMU 202 USB bestellt und wird es ebenfalls mir BiaB nutzen. Da könnte man diese Klippe gleich umschiffen. Danke im Voraus!

Gruß Ralf

Hi Ralf,

hatte mein Problem auch in anderen Foren geschildert. Man sprach dort auch von einem Asio-Treiber-Problem
und gab mir den Tipp, E-MU zu deinstallieren und neu aufzuspielen. Danach funktionierte alles wieder.
Wo genau der technische Fehler war, kann ich leider nicht sagen, ich bin kein Computerfreak.

Gruß von der Insel
