"Equalize Tempo allows changing a recorded legato song to a fixed tempo." I don't understand what PGM is talking about with changing a recorded legato song to a fixed tempo. Legato has nothing to do with tempo, it merely means "smooth." Are they talking about "rubato" which literally means "robbed" and is where the performer plays a bit faster and a bit slower at times so the tempo varies? If so, they should use the correct term. It's possible to have varied tempos in a staccato song, as long as it's played rubato. Will that new feature not work on staccato songs which are played at an uneven tempo?

My take on what PG Music is meaning is that unless a musician is playing with a click track or metronome, it's more than likely that the recording will be give and take in the tempo department and not kept strictly to time. It's not really rubato nor ad lib as both of those are much more obvious than small tempo variations that can result in some performances. It's in this sense that timing can be unified using this new addition to BIAB. Regards, Noel

Does the BIAB 64-bits app load/run the 32bits Plugs-in VST ? Hi Vicente, J-Bridge, sold by PG Music for $10 and if it is installed, should provide the bridge to allow 32-bit plugins to run in BIAB 64-bit. Alternatively, you could simply start BIAB 32-bit and use that with the 32-bit plugins. The below site explains how jbridge allows 32bit VST plugins to run in a 64-bit environment. https://jstuff.wordpress.com/jBridge/Hope this helps, Noel

Hi Wendy, Before the clock runs out, even though your next post sounded like you'll (probably?) be buying 2020 anyway, could you list your top three to five "niggles?" I'm sure you'll get many honest detailed answers but in fairness we need the question(s). (unless you're thinking the folks here are Carnac the Magnificent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRTtLvKAKgk  ) That will really give focus to areas of primary concern, beyond the generic and fairly large "arranger" category. Larry

Larry raises good points. To assess your needs we should know more about what you mean. I’m an arranger and I only know what that means to me. There are all levels of arranging.

I don't understand what PGM is talking about with changing a recorded legato song to a fixed tempo Yes, that was a typo, it should read "rubato"  Edit: Actually a more accurate description is: If you have an audio file that wasn't recorded at a fixed tempo, you can change so that the tempo of the audio is all the same. We call this an 'equalization' of the tempos. https://www.pgmusic.com/manuals/bbw2020upgrade/chapter3.htm#equalize-audio-tempoThis is pretty powerful feature of the Audio Chord Wizard, AND is very easy to use - in the Audio Edit window, just click [Equalize Temp] button and enter the tempo of your song. So now BB doesn't need to make a complex tempo map throughout the song.

Hi Noel96,
I've been used jbridge on BIAB2018(32bit) to load the VTS Plug-ins 64bit.
As you said in your post, If I run BIAB 2019/2020 64bit, I must use jbridge to load the 32bit VTS plug-ins ?
The 64bit BIAB App. won't load 32bit VTS. What a pain!

The 64bit BIAB App. won't load 32bit VTS. What a pain! Most if not all 64 bit programs will not load 32 bit VSTs. My old Sonar and my current DAW, Studio One Pro, will not load them either. You have jBridge.
Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.
