All of the other categories have zero styles listed. Is this normal? I have BIAB 2013 UltraPlusPak. Thanks Rich Windows 10, 64 bit \| BIAB 2019 PlusPak \| Studio One 2 Artist

It sounds like not all the Realtracks have been installed on your system. Some questions that spring to mind are ... How did you install the Realtracks? Did you download the files and install or use the USB and run install from there? Do you run the Realtracks from a USB drive or are they installed on your internal hard drive?

OP Takamine Apprentice Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 110 Goshen, Indiana	Noel I installed from the USB drive and chose the 3rd installation option (install everything to the internal hard drive, including Real Tracks). When I look in the C:\bb folder there is a RealTracks folder and it appears everything is there. I'm installing just the RealTracks now to see if that makes a difference. I've tried installing this on a couple of different computers (XP, Win7, Win8) and always get the same results. Rich Windows 10, 64 bit \| BIAB 2019 PlusPak \| Studio One 2 Artist

OP Takamine Apprentice Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 110 Goshen, Indiana	Just went into the RealTrack picker and all RealTracks between 170 and 187 are N/A (says they are not in the bb folder). The RealTracks folder in the bb folder on my hard drive contains 47,819 files in 1,740 folders. Not sure if I'm missing Styles or RealTracks.

The tollfree hotline is one way you might be able to solve the problem faster. I'm sure it is something simple enough, and the Support Staff at PGMusic can not only get the needed info from the experts, but using the phone line, resolution can happen much faster, typically in the one phone call. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com
