Can anyone else confirm this please?
Note - I have DL'd and re-installed RT set 236-240 several times and every time this Bass comes up as N/A.
Any ideas?

Ian,

The image you've loaded is from Stylepicker (not Realtrack picker) and seems to be saying that the style _FNKPLS3.STY is not present. The Realtracks are listed in the memo information at the bottom of the window (see image).

Have a look in Realtrack picker and see if the Realtracks listed in the memo are present. Also, have you installed all the bonus paks and Xtra Styles paks? New styles often come from those.

Lastly, what happens when you select the above style and then click OK? Do all the listed Realtracks load into the mixer?

Regards,
Noel

EDIT ADDED: The bass Realtrack in the style is... "RT2612: Bass, Electric, FunkHalfNotePulse Ev 100 , Freddie Washington". If you have a look under the Realtrack picker, is this present?

Exactly, Mike.
It SHOULD be there as part of RT240 set but it's not - it shows on mine as N/A.
Is it the same on yours?

Yes, Ian ... identical. Did a slow rebuild just in case, but this Style is the ONLY one showing N/A.

Thanks Mike - that confirms it.
Hi Noel - sorry, I confused myself.
I have ALL known Bonus and Extra Style packs. My confusion came from the fact that the STYLEPICKER (D'Oh! blush )said it was in set RT240 and I never gave it another thought.
It does NOT load. If I look at RT240 in STYLE PICKER (sorted by RT pack) it is dated 11/2015 EXCEPT for this particular one, which is dated 02/2016. This looks like it was part of an update to add it - but which update is it? How do I find it?
SO - the question should probably be - and this is therefore also true of the two other Styles shown (both of which are midi) - how do I find where they were originally and in the case of the midi ones, how to load them in?
Ian

Check here ... http://www.pgmusic.com/support_windows_realtracks.htm#RT_dec-2016

The latest update (which I have) was on 12/13/2016, I think. Does not fix RT240.

Hi Mike
I have that and I just ran it again.
You are correct ,- it doesn't fix the missing Style issue.
I looked back at the 2016 build updates and none seem to coincide with a 2/2016 date.
Maybe it just got forgotten?
Cheers
Ian

Hi again, Ian.

I had a look at the date stamp for the style _FNKPLS3.STY and it's 5 Feb 2016. This seems to suggest that it's come along by way of an update or something similar. I'm not sure what part of my installations put it on my system.

It would be worth sending an email to support@pgmusic.com and asking them about it and where you can get it from.

Regards,
Noel

As a result of looking at this post, I decided to check my installation and has revealed exactly the same result despite downloading the set and re-installing.

Something amiss here PG !

Hi there,

I have downloaded patch 255 and checked your post...
Under Real Tracks 240, I have the following instruments: (Real Tracks)
2524, Bass electric Funk halfnotepulsesync
2525, Guitar, electric, Funk wahwah
2526, Piano, electric, rythm funk tremolo.
the relative demo songs are (Style picker):
_FNKPLS1: available and plays with 4 instruments,
_FNKPLS2: available and plays with 4 instruments,
_FNKPLS3: demo not available (not found)
So this demo is just missing...
