It creates the render file BUT nothing else AND the render file continues to GROW until it's over 15 GIG... Band in a Box is frozen and I need to "kill" it with task manager and then delete the file... If I use a different style without the fingerpicking it's fine... I am running Windows 10 and BIAB 2017 latest build.

If you need to send your email address then either use a Private Message (PM) or write as davidevans AT comcast DOT net. A PM is the best method IMHO. Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"! 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

There are a number of ways of rendering a file to audio and you don't say which one you used. As an experiment, can you please try the following. 1. Right-click on the link below and download the test SGU file that I created. Test File for RT 522 (link) 2. Generate and play the file. 3. Follow the image below to render the file to audio. The sequence is shown by the numbers. Check the path where the file(s) will be rendered to (#3 on image) Make sure the settings shown in boxes #4 and #5 are the same as shown. Select button #6 to render the file. When rendering is complete, close the dialogue box. Let us know the outcome.

He used my song as his test and it worked so I know it's something wrong with my install... I will reinstall 2017 and see if that fixes it... Dave
