Hi everyone,
So I get this annoying warning 4 times, every time I open BIAB and EVERY time I generate a(ny) song.
"Your current drum kit has no bass drum note assigned."
I have to click it 4 times to make it disappear again and generate the song.

I`m on BIAB 2020 latest patch on a Win 10 HP laptop. It doesn`t matter what Realtracks I`m trying to load. It appears on everything.

It used to run fine. I think the only changes that were made to this laptop was a Windows security patch update (something automatic).

I would appreciate your help a lot, since this is my teaching laptop and it`s hard to teach guitar without a working BIAB version. On my PC everything`s running smooth as butter.

Thanks,
Sandra

Sounds as though the MIDI drum kit has lost one or more settings:

Try the following and check that the definition values are not zero. If so, change them to match the following values and save:

Sounds like you just need to reset your drum kit.

To do this, go into Opt | Midi/Audio driver setup.
Change the "Synthesizer/Soundcard" option from General MIDI Instrument Misc to any other option in the list.
Press OK and say "yes" to the message that appears.

Then go back into Opt | Midi/Audio driver setup.
Change the "Synthesizer/Soundcard" option back to General MIDI Instrument Misc.
Press OK and say "yes" to the message that appears.

That should do it but if not let us know!


Cheers,

hanks! I actually just resetted the midi driver as Deryk suggested. But it`s good to have another ace up my sleeves.
