Hi John,

Welcome to Band-in-a-Box and welcome to the forum!

My guess is there is a mismatch between the Band-in-a-Box audio settings and Windows 11 audio settings.

Band-in-a-Box defaults to 16 bit depth at 44.1Khz sample rate. Windows defaults to 24 bit depth at 48Khz sample rate.

In Windows 11 type "Sound settings" in the Windows search bar and then click Open.

In Band-in-a-Box type Ctrl+E to open the Preference window, select "Audio" and make sure the "Audio Driver Type" is set for "ASIO" if using an ASIO driver from your audio interface manufacture or "WAS". With either driver, make sure the Band-in-a-Box audio settings match the Windows audio setting.

Also, when you are not recording in Band-in-a-Box the MME Audio Driver Type selection should work fine.
