Dan,

What version of BIAB are you using? Also what are you computer specs?

I just tried setting an 86-bar song of mine to 24 choruses and clicked on generate. Playback started in exactly 10 seconds. (I run a quad core I7, 3.4 GHz, 64-bit Windows 7.)

Is this the type of delay that you are experiencing?

The reason I ask the above is because, for some time now, BIAB first generates a few bars of the song and then starts playing. Realtrack generation is then completed in the background while the song is playing.

When I read your post, it sounded like you have background generation turned off. This process is called "Fast Generation". With BIAB 2019...

  • the global setting for it is under "Options | Realtracks | Speed up generation of Realtracks"
  • the local setting is under "Right-click on chord sheet | Song Settings | This song has playback problems, disable Fast Generation"

To get fast generation to work, the global setting needs to be enabled and the local setting needs to be disabled.

Regards,
Noel
