Hi Andrew and all.
Thanks for build 807 it has sorted a lot of problems especially the no sound problem in 32 bit. But unfortunately it wont let you change the midi thru voice in any version. I notice the is no snowflake box at all on the thru track don’t know if that is a clue. Sorry to be a pain. Mike

I would guess PG cumulate blocks of work in the background and issue INTERNALLY Build numbers to keep track. When there's a goodly amount OR when the BugFix is an urgent one, its issued to us via the Support page. HTH Ian

I understand that later Builds (e.g. 807) are intended to incorporate all of the preceding changes/improvements etc of earlier builds. Please correct me if that is not the case.

I think Beachboy means that they ave literally gone, extinct, demised, they are not with us any more! When I downloaded late last night there was a thread indicating availability of 807, also with details of the elusive 805 and 806, This morning everything has gone. Spooky eh?
Vintage
p.s. I won't install 807 just yet to be safe.

HI all
Mmm well I did install it last night so I guess I will have to wait for the improved version. As I said in my post it still has some problems.
On a more general note, although a lot of these improvement and enhancements, in the new versions each year, are welcome. I can understand that there may well be bugs in the new functionality of those improvements and extra features.
But it should not render old established core functions that have been working for years in previous builds to no longer work. I am talking basic functions here like Asio drivers in 32 bit versions and now this Thru voice thing
Just my thoughts Mike

When you install the update, like all updates I have seen, you will see the message on the 2nd screen after clicking NEXT
Band-in-a-Box 2021 (Build 807) Update
This will update Band-in-a-Box to version 2021 (build 807) from any previous Band-in-a-Box 2021 build
From past messages, I understand any new update incorporates any previous updates so you don't have to worry about being up to date.

Yes, I agree, the builds are usually cumulative, but the big question of the day is, who hid 807?

Vintage Andrew pulled it last night due to a problem which was pointed out in the testing forum. For those who downloaded, we have a bet on how long it will take for you to notice and report the problem.  - no prizes though.

Hi MusicStudent
Yes as you can see from my post I did indeed find the thru voice problem. Also noticed that there are no freeze buttons in the utility tracks and the thru tracks. There may well be more I did not get to see. At that point I gave up and went to bed just before it was pulled. Mike

I got a message saying a critical file was missing, however the program worked perfectly. Later I loaded BiaB again and received no such message. Weird!
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

There may well be more I did not get to see. Freeze buttons don't make sense for the Thru tracks or Utility tracks I am not sure why the patch changes are not working on the Thru track but will definitely look into that. There is a workaround you can use, if you need one right now - Options | Preferences | Channels, and change the patch on the bottom row.
