Yes I run win 7 Pro 64

I ran the demo just for grins (I have an external SC-8850, besides all the other gear and SS's I own, and the sounds of this plug-in are IDENTICAL with IDENTICAL maps so not worth it TO ME at $125 - duplicative)


The 32 bit version makes no sound within BIAB and didn't spend a lot of time trouble shooting but the 64 bit version works just fine in BAIB (using JBridge obviously)

I sent PG support few questions on this an their reply

Hi Larry,

I have seen plugins with very larger control panels get cut off, but the Sound Canvas VA's control panel is pretty small so wouldn't normally get cut off like this. I do see why it's happening though.

When you first select the SC VA, its control panel is pretty tiny, and only expands to show more information when you hit the Part, FX, or Options buttons. This is fairly unusual behaviour, most plugins' control panels have a fixed size. I've never seen one that shrinks and expands like this before.

The size of the window is set when the plugin is first selected, and simply doesn't refresh when the plugin is expanded. Frankly, I wouldn't have expected it to, this was an odd design decision on Roland's part.

Regarding the "no sound" issue, the trial version of the plugin is silent for me too, it doesn't seem to be responding at all to the General MIDI patch changes or notes being sent to it from BIAB.

I have a feeling that if we could see the entire interface I'd see a setting that would affect this. I'll let the development team know about the control panel getting cut off, hopefully this can be improved. Once that's resolved we'll likely be able to figure out why it's silent.

I've only tested this with the 32-bit version, but will test the 64-bit version on a different computer once things have slowed down here a bit following the sale. smile

Thank you,

1. I’ve mentioned this in a previous version(s) of BIAB (and PT and RB)

Issue: some VSTi/VST plug-ins when you open their “window” (edit , etc.) BIAB/RB/PT doesn’t allow for or open a large enough window see whole app’s working window.

A GREAT NEW example is the new Roland Sound Canvas VA plug-in (http://www.roland.com/products/sound_canvas_va/downloads/ )


You don’t need to buy it you (for trouble shooting) can download the trial version and see for yourself.

2. While you are at it the 32 bit version of this sound canvas makes NO sound in BIAB, RB or PT (no audio) but you can see the parts playing in the display window) . However, the 64 bit version DOES generate audio.



BTW this new Sound Canvas VA - both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions: work in Music Creator ( 32 and 64 bit) Sonar Platinum (32 and 64) and Mixcraft (32 and 64 - with some issues there) and Reaper 32 and 64.
