Ok, I was just able to reproduce the problem as I remembered it.

Right click the soloist track and select a soloist. Click the Play (what I thought was called Audition) button top right side of RT picker. The song then starts to generate. The RT picker disappears. The song plays but BiaB is completely non responsive. The song ends and BiaB appears locked up.

However, if you Alt tab through the open windows you'll find the RT picker is still active. Releasing the Alt key brings the RT picker to the front and you can then close it and BiaB becomes responsive again.

This still occurs in ver 2012. However, in PGMs defense, I think this may be a windows issue since I know MS Outlook also does this with e-mail forms under XP. The difference being Outlook doesn't occupy the whole screen so you can see the open window behind the main app.

I'm almost certain from your description that this was what was happening to you. If it happens again remember to Alt-Tab and find the RT picker.

Hope this helps.
