MusicStudent, just out of curiosity, does ASIO work with other plugings? Is it just for biab plugin? Have you tried to drag the stems from main biab application into the DAW, if so, does ASIO work? I do not quite see what the ASIO driver has to do with the issues you are having... Having said that, there is a thread in PG Music forums, that address the issue of the audio drivers, that being that ASIO is set for one program, and for other programs alternate audio drivers have to be set for them. Like if the ASIO driver can work with one instance only. I do not have sufficient knowledge on this subject, but it might worth to explore approach...
In my case, I use AsIO driver for Reaper, however, for BIAB I have the midi and audio input/output driver set to my Yamaha AG06, and the audio settings set to MME.
I have used my MOTU ASIO in Reaper since 2015. Worked great with BIAB-VST V1, V2 and V3. Since ASIO will only host one occurrence at a time, I use MME in BIAB so I can have both BIAB and Reaper open at same time when needed. By the way, WAS has always been a problem in BIAB for me.
For the past month nothing but crashes in Reaper with BIAB-VST V4. Until last night - when I installed the updated MOTU driver. Today I hope to confirm things ...
Dan. if pc connected to net confirm a win update hasnt screwed up something in win devices...recording/playback. when ya got it working again with reaps...take pics of reaps , and motu control panel, and win audio control panel and biab audio settings. WAS works fine here in bb. post a pic your bb audio settings. so users and pg support can comment properly.
best om

I am a new user having just purchased Band-in-a Box 2022. The vst plugin does not appear to work at all in Ableton Live 11, either no response to inputs, freezes or crashes Live 11. Anyone have better experiences in Ableton Live 11 ? Advice gratefully received ! Otherwise Band-in-a Box is a great tool and I am having great fun just trying different genres outside my normal mode of playing.
Hey Doc, welcome to the forum. We don't hear too much about Ableton Live in these parts. Mostly Studio One and Reaper which are both reporting problems at this time. Other than that, the BIAB-VST is a 4 year work-in-progress. Stay tuned updates are occassionally released. In the mean time glad you are having fun with BIAB.
Thank you to all that replied, the good news is that without doing anything (!) I managed to get test chord sequences to play in Ableton and route the audio output to a new track for recording. It did crash after playing with the BPM in the host but at least now I should be able to get basic stuff into Ableton and then add additional MIDI and Audio tracks as usual. No idea why it just worked as no settings were altered !
Still having fun, should have purchased BIAB years ago ! I`ll explore the Ableton issues further and will report any fixes/hints to fellow users.
