I have not been using BIAB in two years and now I try to get things running. I have version 2014.
Q1: I get a message E:\Drums the custom Drum folder does not exist. Correct this in Options-Prefs-RealDrum settings - I did not find RealDrums folder anywhere but I should have it. It seems to work if I choose a style with real intsruments
Q2: How do I get keyboard wizard running? I don't hear anything when I play a track and try to get sound of notes from my keyboard. "Wizard" is activated in Play menu. It used to work earlier.
I have two drives. C (SSD drive) and E. BIAB is located on the E drive. It is not an USB drive.
Now I run the Setup from 2 CD:s BIAB Pluspak+ 2014 and run also Setup from a disk Realtrack that came with those 2 CD:s. Now there is stuff in the Drums folder. Something is still missing as I get "RealDrums not found Style Nashville Even 16-5,HihatRide". Maybe I should run the Setup from some disk that I got with earlier versions? I think that the previous version that I have before 2014 is 2008.
Just checked the add-ons. I have all RealDrums sets from 1 to 29.
Now I have left the error that I reported on my previous message.
The other problem is the sound of single notes. Keyboard Wizard is not working. Also when I go sto Melody Step edit mode and try to play single notes I hear nothing. I don't have currently any MIDI system integrated. I use Windows Synth. I can hear music when I play my old songs but the edit and Wizard are not working.
............................... I am proceeding: Now I found out that the Wizard is working but with a huge latency. When I push a button, the sound comes out about 3 seconds later.´ ...... Update: I connected my Roland Quad-Capture soundcard system plus Korg MIDI synth and MIDI keyboard. And I updated BIAB MIDI setup. Now the Wizard is working with no latency.
The error message of Nashville style is still there.
