Band in the Box can load and play this midi file. Real Band CANNOT.



I know it looks like there's something wrong with RB but there's not. It's in the file itself or in your config setup. One good way to test this is look in the Biab setup window and see what you're using for midi input/output, what synth, MME or ASIO, what audio output and then open RB and make sure it's set up exactly the same way. The fact that it plays in WMP means squat because you may have that playing the default soundchip on your mobo. Also go to the website you bought it from and read the fine print, like John said there may be some kind of copy protection embedded in the file that stops it from loading into a sequencer because they don't want you tearing it apart and copying the tracks. I've got over a thousand midi's and all but a very few play in RB just fine.
