I open a BIAB.sgu file. The first 8 tracks are empty but, they are BIAB tracks. I try to convert them to non BIAB tracks but am unsuccessful.


I think the root problem lies here

How do you try to convert them to non BiaB tracks?

David,

Thanks for all those details. They help me get a clear picture of the problem.

Some thoughts that occur to me...

Have you updated to the latest version of RB found at the below link? (You can double-check your version by looking under "Help | About Realband".)

The fact that you can't convert the BB tracks to regular tracks is very strange. It should simply be a matter of "Edit | Track | Make all BB tracks regular tracks". It's necessary to load in an generate a song before the tracks can be converted (as rharv has isolated above).

One last thing to try is to set User Privileges to "run as administrator". To do this, right-click on the RB startup shortcut, select properties and then have a look under the "Compatibility" tab to set this option permanently.

If this doesn't bring joy...

I'd try returning RB to factory settings. This will reset all audio and midi settings, too. To do this...

...rename the REALBAND.INI file and RB.CFG to something like REALBAND.INI.OLD and RB.CFG.OLD. This will effectively "delete" those files so that RB is forced to create new ones (thus the factory rest). If the problem is not solved by doing this, you can always delete the newly created files and then return the original files to their original names.

See if any of the above help.

Regards,
Noel

Sorry,

Here's the link...

http://www.pgmusic.com/support.realband.htm

Build 3 is the latest version. You currently have Build 2. Download and install the update and see if it helps.

Also, when you reset to factory to settings, did you do it by renaming the abovementioned files? If not, renaming the two files is definitely worth trying.

OK now in version 3 I can convert all BB track to normal tracks. Yes. I renamed the files to ini3.old extension this is the 3rd time I renamed the .cfg and .ini file
