HI All
Well after last years break of annual updates I decided to have this years.
I quite liked the idea of Realband 64 bit and the new mixer and extra tracks in BIAB.
So I went for the ultra pack to install over my existing 2019 ultra plus.
All has gone well with the download and download and install of the new realtrack sets.
BUT:
While the 64 bit version seems to be working fine for what I have tried so far, with good audio from my Asio Akai audio pro interface,
The 32 bit version results in no audio although the meters are moving.
The only way I can get sound is to use mme drivers.
Any thoughts.
Mike

I am having the same issue with BIAB 64. I'll give Real Band a try and see what I get.
I haven't tried either with 32.

Ok, my Real Band in both (2021) 64 and (2020) 32 works fine with ASIO. My BIAB crashes with anything but MME.
I'm going to update my ticket.
Sorry I wasn't much help for you though.

...Deb Are you using Band-in-a-Box build 805? What kind of ASIO device do you have?

Hi
Just to let you know I have got around this by using the WAS driver on the 32 bit version and it is fine with minimal latency.
I have long suspected that the asio Akai driver is actually the akai WDM driver WDM 2.9.64 (as that’s what windows thinks it is ) and it in a Asio jacket.
I do some times get a message from windows saying that feature enhancements for this driver are causing problems and will be disabled, when I run it as an Asio driver.
Rather like Asio4 All.
Btw the plug in function screen in the mixer is great now I have got my head around it.
Let you know how I get on.

WAS complained also by pegging the VU meter. MME is the only thing that is behaving itself in BIAB.
