That's insane. I've had an account there for 5 years, and sold hundreds of minutes worth of songs. I don't have commercial aspirations and I'm OK with the Youtube deal. The more the merrier.

But that's good to know. I casually know a manager there. If I run into him I'll ask. It just changed hands for about the 10th time, new president, so who knows what they are/will be doing. Probably screwing us like Spotify. I got a check for something like $1.14 from them once.

I'm the one encouraging Andy to mix on headphones. It has everything to do with his hearing loss curves. He would encounter very serious room mode issues to compensate for his hearing loss at certain frequencies. Please do not recommend that monitor speakers are better for him. In most cases true, but not for his situation.

Thanks, Scott.

You guys are all great for giving me advice, and it's all good. I don't expect everyone to keep track of my (many) issues. Believe me, the list is looooong!!!

Scott's really helping me. Way above and beyond. It's a lot to tackle. He's a mensch.

And, thank you RHarv. So much tech stuff I don't know anything about. I looks like something NASA would use for rocks, or the NSA!

Thanks, Scott. Yes, I figured out earlier in the thread that was the situation. Very good.

Hey, Matt. I was just writing a post in another forum but since the subject came up here, I'll take the opportunity.

I got the Griffin PowerMate USB volume controller you suggested and it is PERFECT! Nearly.

It works seamlessly with all applications other than BB. I wondered if you have a suggestion. For example, when I pull the DAW up or ITunes or Youtube, the unit automatically controls volume, overriding the typical volume slider (the speaker icon in the bottom right of my Windows 8). It's automatically the volume control for all of them; for the whole system, except BB.

Then, if I click on BB, to "notify" my system this is the software I'm working on now, the wheel will not control BB volume until I click on the speaker icon. Then any anytime I stop BB from playing, when I restart it (just clicking the spacebar to stop, then again to play), the wheel again will not control volume until I click on the speaker icon.

I contacted Griffin and they don't know, suggesting I contact PG, which I'll do if you don't have a suggestion that will solve it.

Thoughts?

Thanks, Matt

I do not have a better answer; I also use the speaker icon in the Taskbar. My Powermate is the original version so it's probably different. My guess is that BIAB is perhaps not following some Windows convention and the two companies need to confer.

OK. Well it is still AWESOME! Once the melody is created in BIAB, it's all DAW anyway.
