I have a problem that I've never had before. In v.2015, I try to change the RD track, and the Mixer window shows the change, but still plays the original drums. The Drum track is enabled, I haven't changed anything. Any help? (Besides Return To Factory - been there)
Thanks,
Bob

I had that same problem this morning (with MIDI drums in BIAB2016). I ended up changing to a different MIDI style, selecting an RD, and it worked, then went back to the original style, selected an RD and it worked, so it appears to be somewhat intermittent. I didn't have automatic RD substitution on, but just tried to change the assigned MIDI drum track to a RealDrums track.

Thanks for responding John. It's weird. I did a RTF, re-booted, and I still can't change drum styles! Very frustrating!

Just a quick "just in case", because you did not mention it as a condition...
You don't have the track frozen, do you?

Seems a few of us have had the drummer a little worse for wear, after the new year.
Usually when I have exhausted all other options its return to factory settings, if that doesn't work I try the last update, if that fails, then just a reinstall of the basic program itself, only takes a few mins.
And if that fails.......well I'm totally stumped.

Those drummers! Even in software they can be a pain!
Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer. It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

I seem to remember a similar type of problem
As far I can recall I may have found the answer then by changing the Realdrums patch and then saving it to version 2 before hitting play
Maybe worth a try

Same here. No matter which Real Drums patch I select it's always the same one. Right now I have RealDrums=JazzBebopDannySticks but it's brushes all the way through. Also, it doesn't go to Style B after the first chorus. Any ideas anybody?

I've had this happen in v 2022. Can't remember the exact cause but it was related to the intro being 2 bars and possibly using holds etc. If you have any kind of intro, try removing it and see if that does anything. Make sure song starts at bar 1.

Does the RealDrum change if you select a different Style that uses a different drum?
Since going to Options | Return to Factory Settings did not resolve the issue, please close Band-in-a-Box, go to your bb folder (usually c:\bb\preferences, but it can start with a different letter if you installed to an external drive), and delete the following two files:
Mysetup.dk intrface.bbw
Next, please right click on your Band-in-a-Box shortcut and select Properties | Compatibility | check "Run program as administrator" and click apply. Then just double click on your Band-in-a-Box icon to launch the program.
Best, Chantelle

Thanks,
Bob What package type are you running for 2015? Pro, MegaPAK, UltraPAK, etc? Was it on an external HD? Did you happen to do a split install? Do any error messages pop up at all when you try and make the switch?
Cheers, Ember

I've just updated my BIAB 2022 UltraPak to build 926, and easily reproduced the problem described in this post from seven years ago.
1. Open app to chord chart view with default style and C-major chord. 2. Pressed space-bar to play briefly then stop. 3. Right-click on Drums in Mixer pane and select Find Best Sub for... 4. Make RealDrums selection. 5. Press Ok. 6. Press space-bar to play and observe no change in drum track.
I want to restate that this post started SEVEN YEARS AGO.
Any thoughts out there among the Illuminati?
Is there some other more central place for bug/anomaly reports?

PS: I did delete the dot-bk and dot.bbw files and restarted the computer. PPS: Retired computer programmer. Guilty as charged.
