Yes Noel I have the 437 update installed
I have also tried to open it as you suggested "File > Open Special > Open Audio w/chords" but still the same
I have the BIAB 2016 437 installed on a 500Go SSD external drive
in order to use it at home and with my laptop and it does the same on both so I don't think it is a key stuck on my keyboard
I will try with RealBand even if I do not use it at all as I have Cubase 8.5 running on both Computers but I will try anyway
Thanks for your great help
Fred
PS: I will let you know about ACW in RealBand
