I have been trying to resolve this for nearly two years. It started with version 2022 and I hope I could solve it with 2023 – no luck.

For many years previously I had always started a BIAB song by the press of a key on my keyboard but now I get an access violation sometime during the playing of the song. I use a USB/midi interface between the keyboard and computer and select “pause until midi or key received” I also use a Roland SD-50 for the midi and a Focusright for the midi and audio sounds but the problem is the same if I remove them and just use my laptop. This arrangement worked perfectly for years but stopped with 2022 and I have never been able to make it work since then.

I cannot remember everything I have tried but obviously they include Run As Admin, Restore Factory Settings and Deletion of Mysetupand dk intrface.bbw files. Happens with every type of song or style, Midi or Real Track and is no different between MME and ASIO.

Here is the key.....
If I start the song with a key press but then don’t play on my keyboard while BIAB is playing the song then it never happens but if I keep playing then sooner or later I get the violation. This seems to indicate that it is the continuing midi signal from my playing that is causing the problem in the laptop. BTW I have to use the Thru channel otherwise the song doesn't start in the first place.

I tried to enclose one of the BIAB error files but it seems it has to be an image not a text file.

Does anyone else start BIAB with a keyboard press?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Tony
