This is cut and pasted from a previous post and it is the same message. The whole thing is pasted, the error message is in the first section.
- - - - -
Soloist track: some realtrack folders are not found for frozen track, for example C:\bb\RealTracks\C:\bb\RealTracks\. Either you do not have this realtrack, or you need to point to the correct folder in Prefs-RealTracks Settings.
- - - - -
Note the "double" path of C:\bb\RealTracks\C:\bb\RealTracks. I have no idea where that came from. I did not even know that setting was there until now, thus I could not have changed it since installation. So, going to Prefs-RealTracks Settings I find my path is currently set as C:\bb\RealTracks. The next step in the logic has to be that BIAB is reading that path incorrectly if it is looking for C:\bb\RealTracks\C:\bb\RealTracks.
Which brings up the question "Why is BIAB looking in C:\bb\RealTracks\C:\bb\RealTracks\ when the correct path is C:\bb\RealTracks\"? Where did that extra pathing statement come from? - - - - -
Note 2 things. The first is that I installed BIAB accepting all defaults. The original post drew the answer "I suspect something afoul in your setup". If that were the case, BIAB "afouled" it during a default installation. The correct path is obviously the correct path is C:\bb\RealTracks\. Installation created the double path of C:\bb\RealTracks\C:\bb\RealTracks. Also note that I can change it to the correct path and still get the error.
The second is that despite the message everything is fine and the Real Tracks solo plays as it should. The error is of no consequence as far as performance. It is just annoying to see that whenever I load a song with an MGU extension that has a Real Tracks solo passage. As I have said before, the Real Tracks folder that I am being told is not correct was installed by default, and it is where it was since day 1, where it was when I created the song. If it was an incorrect path, does logic not say that I would also see an error during song creation when I wanted to access that folder to create a solo with a Real Tracks instrument?
This is the definition of a bug. Some annoying glitchy kind of thing that pops up and has no affect on performance. Like the "Jason Tabs" in MS Word. Micro$oft can not even explain or fix it. When you do certain functions in Word, some tab sets just happen. Every time and always at the same place on the tabs ruler. You clear them, and all is well. This is the same thing. I get that error warning message but it is not true and has no affect on the song.
I mean it does no harm, but it should not be happening.
