Hi All First, I'm using Windows 7 and BIAB 2018 MegaPak. I have created a number of tunes for backing tracks using Biab then later, saved them in RealBand as sequence files for editing purposes. Again, later a vocal track was added by a now deceased friend. ( I mention this so you realise these are important to me) They have performed well for some time but now they are staggering, not playing smoothly. I have tried muting the added vocal track but this made no difference. I would appreciate any help to solve this issue....Hank
If these are important/precious files, first thing I'd do is make sure I have backups. Use Save As and rename it as first option .. then look in RealBand/RBBackup to see if a good backup already exists.
Only then would I start experimenting with other options. First and foremost make sure a working copy is saved somewhere. That's how I work anyway. When working in Realband, the previous version is saved in the backup folder whenever you save a file .. so you can always get back to a working version should something go awry.
After making sure I have a backup (from when I know it worked) I'll then explore other possibilities.
Sorry, I have many RBBackup folders, but yours should exist in your default RB folder (image below) Trying File-Open Special, then selecting 'Open Backup File' should quickly allow you to see any backups RB created.

Silvertones, Apparently the buffer perameters go from 128 to only 1024 so I set it to 1028 and It seems to have put the midi and audio tracks way out of sync. I am now gradually reducing the buffer to see if I can get them right. As the saying goes " If it ain't one thing it's another.......Thanks Hank
I see I was looking at the input buffer not the output buffer but I am unable to find the output buffer. I have now made a second copy of each tune as suggested. Thanks for that.
As Noel mentioned look under "Options | Prefences | 2. Audio"
However, for safety sake, only tinker with one setting at a time. Don't change one, then another. Change one, if it doesn't work set it back to the known previous setting before moving on to change other buffers/drivers.
There can actually quite a few options once you start poking around (image below). It's OK to do so, I just suggest testing one at a time.

If you go to Options - Preferences - MIDI - MIDI Devices, is "Re-Route MIDI Playback to Default DXi/VSTi Synth" checked? If it isn't, that would cause a sync issue as you've described.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
