I agree in theory to most of what was said above. The true problem is that as Peter said it works on 4 computers for them. Sadly PGM doesn’t have 10,000 systems to test it on and when it goes out for beta test from selected users they still don’t have 10,000 systems maybe a dozen or more. So while we all want it to work out of the box that is not always going to be the case. Every and I mean every music software I have used in the over 25 years I’ve been messing with this stuff has had bugs that have shown up after release. Some took years to fix. Some never will be totally right, hence the term patch or build. There are some here like that. It is just that this stuff is super complicated and takes in many, many variables to function. Not to mention development for a dozen different DAWs or more.

While some of us fuss over things that don’t work there are other clicking along that theirs does work. Case in point last week user jpettit found an issue on his system, that work just fine on mine. I would not even begin to argue that mine worked because I know this stuff better than him. Actually he’s probably forgotten more than I will ever know. I learn and ask questions from him regularly. It was just some little variation in our settings or such.

I will say this years release touch most of the bases for me it was a biggie. I think this VSTi is a game changer in the long run. I hope it never becomes over developed but remains a “biablite”. BiaB is the main program, and should remain the focus. I’ll always find Realband useful as it does crazy stuff, like mid track regeneration etc. The plugin allows down and dirty quick track creation inside a DAW of choice.
