I'm trying to remember something like this happening before to someone, maybe have a look back thru the UserTracks forum.
It's trying to access the files on an external drive F:\ is BB running from this drive or Laptop C:\ ?
If BB is on C:\ you can try copy the usertrack to c:\bb\RealTracks\UserTracks then set BB to that RealTrack folder just to try.


I tried recording the user track with RealBand using this video as a guide and it worked. I created a wma file as the video said. I was able to read in two BIAB files and apply the user track, regenerate it, save the BIAB file, read it in again and play it. I tried key changes and although it gave me a message saying it could not do that it actually did do it (the popup seems to be a bug). The first video says BIAB can change keys.

I went back and tried creating a brand new user track with BIAB but running as administrator. This did not fix the problem (it aborted again as described in the first post of this thread). If it did fix it that would be a bug because the video never said to run as administrator. I guess I just proved we do not have to run BIAB this way at least on the usage end of it and I did not run RealBand as administrator.

I did not realize there was a "user tracks" forum. I would have posted there if I did. Don't have the ability to move the post. I will let PgMusic support know of this thread.

My test which worked was using the F:\ drive as before (the external USB drive that came with the ultra pack).

One difference is with RealBand I created a .wma file and with BIAB it creates a .wav file.

So because creating these user tracks is not hard and I am getting the same error on two machines and because I am using 2016 which is two versions after this feature was introduced I have a brand new question. Has anyone got BIAB to successfully create a user track and if so what version and what is your setup? Maybe people rarely use this and a bug has been introduced since it was first released.
