Hi all... I'm new here, and bought BIAB a few few days ago. So far I have encounter a few problems.
1. When I want to insert a VST, sometimes I cannot insert because the insert area is just grayed out, and I don't understand why !
2. I tried the vocal harmonizer, and got up this message: Access violation at address 75846155 in module 'USER32.DLL' Read of address 4569636D at: 75846155
Thanks for any help.....

Welcome to the forum!
My first suggestion is to edit your post and make a second post here, so the first two problems are in a post of their own (I don't think they are related). The RealBand problem should be posted in the RealBand forum. For example, I use BIAB daily but not RealBand.
About the VST, could you please list the steps you are taking, and the results? Which VST? Or do you mean a VSTi (instrument)?
Is this BIAB version 2013? Can you tell us a little about your computer, especially what you are using as a sound card?
While we users may be able to help you, keep in mind you can always give PG Music Support a call. They are really excellent.

Hi Nesrally, Let me join in with Matt and welcome you to the forum  When I read you problems, a couple of questions sprang to mind that it would be handy to know the answers to because it will help give us a clearer idea of your setup. 1. What operation system do you have and how many bits is it? (For example: Windows 7 64 bit, Vista 32 bit) 2. When you installed BIAB, did you use the default paths of C:\bb for BIAB and C:\Realband for Realband or did you put them in another location? 3. What version of BIAB/RB do you have? Kind regards, Noel

Ah, yes... sorry for my noobish approach to the problem. I'm using BiaB 2013 on Windows 7, on a 32 bit system....installed biab in default folder. And yes, I actually meant VSTi..
Hehe, the funny thing is that when i open biab this morning to explain step by step what I was doing, actually accidentally discover the right way to do it ! Could not even recreate the way I was doing it to not make it work !
So now everything is just great !
Thank u guys ! Will edit my first post and mark it as solved, and transfer the realband problem to the right forum.....

But my 2. problem about the vocal harmonizer still persist. As I follow the guidance in Tutorial #14: Using the Audio Harmonies, Repeats/Endings and more, I still got the message: Access violation at address 75846155 in module 'USER32.DLL' Read of address 4569636D at: 75846155
Any idea?

Nesrally, I suspect it's due to Windows 7's User Account Control (UAC). You could verify this by going into Control Panel | Users, deactivating it and restarting BIAB. See if TC Helicon then brings joy. Here's a link to some thoughts by PG Music on UAC ... http://www.pgmusic.com/techfaq28.htm#100Hope this helps, Noel

Hi Nesrally, If you click on the link above and wait until it's fully loaded, it should take you to Users' FAQ #100. There is nothing in the FAQ about TC Helicon, but there is information about what setting works for UAC (point #5). Below is a link to Microsoft and it explains how to turn UAC on and off. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows7/turn-user-account-control-on-or-offKind regards, Noel

Hi Noel !
My UAC slider was already at the bottom, so it must be something else causing this error. But maybe, as suggested here, I should move this topic to another tread ?
BTW, I found out why I had that other problem with VSTi... Hehe, I did not realize I had to stop the song before inserting it.......
