bibsie,
Sampletank needs to be installed in the default directory. (That is, just install it and change nothing during the course of the installation.)
That being said, to get it to work with BIAB, it might be necessary for you to right-click on the shortcut you use to start BIAB, select "Properties" and then under the "Compatibility" tab, set the privilege level "Run as administrator". Try it and see if it helps.
Regards,
Noel

Hi Noel, thank you,
yes, I should have learned in the past that BB ist not so very flexible in changing installation folders.
I don't like these tail long pathways and not to save more or less static catalogs on the system drive.
It is like it is :-)

Duh? what???
I can (have) move BIAB around at my leisure with NO ISSUES (SHORT paths or LONG). Windows program installs DO NOT get much shorter than "X:\BB" for a path - that almost smacks of my assembly language days.

Hi Larry sorry, but I disagree (but luckily evryone may have his own opinion): DO NOT get much shorter than "X:\BB" for a path I talked about: C:\Program Files (x86)\IK Multimedia\Instruments\Band-in-a-Box And I would prefer D:\sampletank\instruments as I use sampletank for other software in addition and as I have mentioned to save static catalaogs not at the system drive. But as I said: An owl in the hand is the others sparrow at the roof - or similar  . horst

Mine is already on my D drive at:
"D:\Music\IK Inst Libs\Band-in-a-Box"
and I'm lazy I COULD rename the "\Band-in-a-Box" to "\B"
The path "D:\Music\IK Inst Libs\" points to all my IK libraries (for SampleTank 2 and 3, SampleMoog, SampleTron, Miroslav 1 and 2,...)
Yes, PG's install program for the HI-Q instruments, that come with BIAB, installs the Hi-Q instruments to the ASSUMED default path (as defined by IK) on c:\Program Files (x86)\...
But all you have to do is MOVE or COPY that "\Band-in-a-Box" folder to your "D:\Sampletank\Instruments\" folder then make sure that within SampelTank you do a "Relist" before trying to use HI-Q for the first time.
Lots of installers put stuff where I don't want it (Cakewalk, Steinberg, Native Instruments, IZotope, Celemony, IK MM, XLN, ToonTracks, PreSonus, ...) after installs I move it ALL to my D drive (and sometimes I have to hack registry).
Additionally, I lump 100% of all VSTs and VSTi's (DX and DXi's are harder to deal with) into two super folders one for 32-bit VST/VSTi's and one for 64-bit VST/VSTi's. I use TWO folders because the, less than genius, programmers give their different apps, one is a 32 bit plug in and the other is a 64 bit plug in, identical names otherwise I would have all VST's and VSTi's in ONE folder - much easier to find, sort and keep track of plug-ins that way also faster for host DAW's to find stuff.
Good Luck (and didn't mean to sound all like a jerk on first post above)
Larry
