Hi,
I am using a Kurzweil K2600XS with BIAB. It is such a complicated instrument that I only use it as a keyboard - no sequencing, etc.
I was under the opinion that the instrument sounds on the Kurzweil could not be played into BIAB. However, something strange has happened, and the K2600XS instrument sounds seem (seem is important as I could be mistaken) to be playing in BIAB. This is bad. Bad you say? Yes, because...
1) I don't know how this started. I don't know if I accidentally triggered something on the K2600XS or if I accidentally triggered something in BIAB. Or, was it the gremlins?
2) I have rebooted everything, and no matter what style or what instrument is loaded in BIAB I only get a Honky Tonk Piano sound. Even if I change the BIAB from, say, Bright Piano to Glockenspiel, I still get the Honky Tonk Piano.
3) I can only change the instrument by changing it on the K2600XS. Even so, this does not work as the instrument playing in BIAB is not the same instrument showing on the K2600XS screen. I am not sure, but the instrument playing in BIAB may be 8 or 10 (or whatever) instruments before or behind what is shown on the K2600XS screen.
4) The other day the K2600XS would not turn on. I found the fuse box, looked at the fuse which seemed to be OK, put it back in, and it worked. The BIAB worked ok after this, so I don't know if this could have affected it or not.
5) I don't know whether this has any bearing on the problem or not, but I just noticed that a few of my instruments do not play on the K2600XS by itself.
It probably has nothing to do with the problem, but about the time this happened the BBW Title Toolbar popped up on my screen. I cannot make it close by closing BIAB or rebooting my computer.
I have just recently cleared up latency problems by installing Coyote Forte and ASIO4ALL v2. When I load BIAB a popup says ASIO is loaded and it says in the lower right of the screen when it loads, Bbw 512 samples @44100 HZ.
I do not know what else to tell you, other that I am very technologically challenged, and that I do not know what else to do. The program is unusable as is.
Thanks,
Natchez Too
