Dear All,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I've discovered the following - which seems rather significant:

- When I start BIAB and load a song, the first stick-hit in the count-in is perfectly clear.

- However if I stop the song, and re-play/re-generate it - or if I load a different song - the first stick-hit is muffled and very quiet.

In other words: the only time the first stick-hit of the count-in plays clearly is the very first time Play is pressed in newly-opened-BIAB.

That seems to be a very consistent pattern, irrespective of the song being loaded.

I did the return-to-factory-settings Mac, but that seems to make no difference.

Grateful for any suggestions about why the Count-In starts so oddly from the second time Play is pressed, and thereafter.

(The Midi/Audio Drivers Setup, after the factory-reset is:
- Midi Output Driver: MS GS Wavetable Synth
- Synthesiser/Sound Card: General Midi Instrument
- Driver Latency: 104ms
- Timer resolution: 1ms
- Use VST/DXi Synth Box: Checked
- Audio Settings: MME

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium on a new Dell XPS laptop, with i7/2.4GB chip & 6MB RAM.)

Thanks again to All - Best - Andy
