The sync goes out by 2 bars. The style tracks went out so I loaded all the wavs into the Util tracks and they played, but the next time I loaded the Reaper session they were now out.
BBPlugi5-Sync-Out-2.mp4

If I have a 3/4 session the next time I load it the time signature goes to 4/4 even though a 3/4 style is selected, and it nags me, so I have to go in the style picker and choose the same style again.
I re-loaded the same style on the BBPlugin on the left and it went back to 3/4.
If I go to another project tab in Reaper then come back to this one I get a nag on the other 2 plugins that I did not re-load the same style back in to set them to 3/4.

DAW Plugin 5.0.9 still has the issue
So if you generate up a style, it will sync and play fine, save it and close then open the saved Reaper project and the tracks won't start to play until bar 4.

Glad you have noticed this bug I thought it was only me.

I'm using Mixcraft 9 Pro Studio load up the plugin/ generate song/ play / everything in sync/ save the project.

Load the Mixcraft project/ play / the audio in the plugin starts playing 2 bars late.

Hi,

Could other BIAB Plugin users please try out the above topic with your DAW.

I need to know if this bug is happening in other DAW's and if PGMusic is on the case.

Very inconvenient having to re-render the project each time I open it.

Thanks
Brian

I have posted a ticket some days ago, having this problem with Samplitude X7. I also tried out with Reaper6, Cubase 12 pro and StudioOne6. It seems to be a general plugin problem and not specific to any DAW, although the symptoms and side effects on the DAWs seem to be slightly different.
e.g. Reaper showing a tempo mismatch between DAW and plugin, the others just coming late and apparently not just exactly 2 bars but something else like 1 3/4 bar.
I would assume that it has something to do with the way the plugin deals with the tempo of the .sty vs. DAW tempo or sample rate conversion from 44.1 to 96khz. But that's pure speculation. The programmers of the plugin should know better.
