Tony, I infer from your description that you did not install the audiophile version to your computer; you perhaps installed the regular version (maybe downloaded) then bought the audiophile version on the USB drive. Further, I’ll assume you won’t be putting the audiophile RealTracks on your internal drive. You can, but they take up well over 1 TB.

Look in Options, Preferences, RealTracks. Use the Custon Location to specify BIAB on the USB drive. Then do the same thing in Preferences, RealDrums.

When the program finds both WMA and WAV files, as it will on your USB drive, it uses the WAV files. Read my little tutorial on Differences between Regular and Audiophile Version for much more info. It’s a sticky in the Tips and Tricks Forum.
