Anyone else see this when listening to the online demo for the style _BOMB (Bomb Organ Shuffle Blues)?

It is on RT Set 383

The audio demo on my PC sounds just fine.

The online demo starts with the lead in rim beats on the drum and then the 1st 8 or so measures are of very low sampling quality. It then returns to normal quality for the rest of the demo.

Ya, just as you described. But since this intro is such a unique and distinctive effect it makes me think it could be intentional?

If that was the case, you would think that the hard drive version of the WMA sample included with BIAB would play the exactly same way as the online version. They don't.

It really is a startling audio effect. More folks should listen to it

That is an intentional effect, where the first 4 bars are intended to sound like an old AM Radio, and then it kicks in with the proper-sounding style at bar 5. That particular demo is one of the "Songs With Vocals" demos. For styles that have a "Songs with Vocals" option, the program automatically switches to the online version so that these demos will play rather than the original demos.

That being said, it would be great if the user could actually decide whether they want the original demo or the "song with vocals" demo. I will make a suggestion that that feature be added for future versions.
