yes it would be nice if larry gave more detailed info…and steps to reproduce the problem.
ive never had this occur. read on for more thinking.

FYI.

from what i can see i dont think one can even buy a new mbox these days eg sweetwater.
and it seems there are vids on you tube on how to get an older mbox working in 2022 on win 10.
just one reason i suggested a new interface. if larry is using an old mbox. ..even though he has run mbox successfully for many years, maybe a win 10 update has done something.

OR one thought i had was, is , if larry is running mbox then he might be using pro tools as his main daw multitrack software. if so it might be a setting has been made on the mbox for pro tools in the mbox hardware or software but not been reset for non pro tools audio apps.
(search various pro recording forums eg gearspace.com bout using older mboxes.)

as i see larry is in LA. one aspect to consider also is maybe larry is exchanging pro tools projects with other studios using pro tools…which is an added aspect. sorta like i can send a biab or realband song project to other pg users but i cant if a user isnt useing biab/rb.

a final thought is, and pg techs can correct me, and tell me i'm full of it…but that 'format 17' message i suspect is related to wave format files ? ie audio ? which leads me to wonder if larry might have tried to drop a audio file from pro tools onto the biab icon…thats not a standard *.wav format ? or maybe its related to the wav 'header' , a corruption maybe ? or relateing to unsupported bit depths and/or sampling rates ?
i would love to hear from pg, as ive never seen it, what does '17' relate to ?
call it 'nerdy interest' lol'...

frankly there are many new superb super affordable interfaces on the market these days that work a treat with all daw apps.
(i posted the pg links previously up thread). thats the route i would take.

all we can do is wait for more info from larry.

happiness
