I think someone posted the solution a short time ago but I cannot seem to find it.

I would like to find out which styles use RT #2498 which is Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm RockabillySwingKevin Sw 165

I am having trouble using that particular RT because when I generate the song, there are very noticeable gaps in the piano playing but only for that RT

I would like to find which over styles use it so I can load them and see if I am having the same problem.

Here is what I am getting

Any ideas.

Not in front of the computer now, but according to 2023 new features list:

"You can launch the StylePicker that will show only styles that use the selected RealTracks."

Yes, in the RealReack picker... Right clicking on a "realtrack" brings up the menu with a new menu item choice to "Launch stylepicker showing styles with selected RT".
Very cool new feature.

Thanks I found it. Now on to the problem at hand.

I loaded the demo songs for the following styles that use RT# 2498:

_ODDSTAR.STY
_RBILLYSW.STY
_RBILLYFX.STY
_JUMPING.STY
_BALBOA.STY
_FURL.STYU

All of them have rather large and noticeable gaps in the generated piano track.

Here is what I get with the _FURL.STY

All of the other styles look the same at various locations.

Can someone load those demos, generate the song and then look at the audio waveform for the piano and let me know if you get the same. If you mute all the other tracks while the song is playing, you can obviously hear the dropout.

Now so far I do not seem to get the problem except with that particular RT in question.

Thanks

I see and hear the "gaps", but for me the piano track works ok while playing along with the other tracks.
but yeah, by itself, it sounds un-natural... almost like a rude noise gate was employed...

I just noticed another RT in that same _FURL style demo that sounds weird in another way...

Guitar 3... 3887:Guitar
Sounds like the envelopes' attack was ducked or gated somehow... strange.

Hello,

If you could check out the date of two of the files on your system it will better help us address this issue.

If you can go to the folder C:\bb\Soloists and look for the file RPno0232.ST2. If you can tell us the Date Modified for this file it will help us out.

If you don't run Band-in-a-Box from your internal drive and only run it from the external drive than instead of C: the 'C' will be replaced by which ever letter your external drive is.

Thanks,
Dave

Can you unzip these files to your Soloists folder, reboot BIAB, and try again? It should be improved...
