Once you have SampleTank open from within BIAB, forget about this or that Hi-Q not being seen by BIAB, can you see, select, and PLAY the all HI-Q sounds directly? (the various sounds under the ST browser under Band-in-a-box (Bass or Piano or World or..)

Preferbly using the DXi instrument NOT the VSTi (but remember the DXi is a little "hinky" so may get a crash or two.



Larry, I'm willing to try that out and report back, but I need a little guidance. -- First, how do you open the SampleTank interface from within BIAB? And then, exactly how do I try to play the Hi-Q sounds directly from within the interface?

I know how to open the ST interface by opening it externally, but I've never done it from inside BIAB. All I've ever done regarding Hi-Q files in BIAB is to use the command "Select Hi-Q MIDI Synth Patch...".

BTW - I don't think that the problem is with the Hi_Q installer on the USB drive. I installed BIAB2014 from the USB drive on both my desktop PC and my laptop PC (albeit to different drive letters). They work fine (assuming there are a total of 27 files?) on my desktop PC. But the laptop PC can't seem to access them. <shrug>

I'll hold off doing a total BIAB reinstall on the laptop as long as this thread continues to explore other solutions.

Thanks.
