If not, perhaps it is an issue with the wave file format. Also, double-check you are running 1109. I'm not sure what the issue is with the 'normal' loops, even though I watched your video - can't explain that... Andrew PG Music Inc.

Fortunately you don't have much time to devote to Biab. It doesn't matter to you or me but to some it may be an important part of their workflow. Plus if it is supposed to work then it should work. Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.

You just need to wait until it's fixed, as I said they are probably all working on the Mac version now. Necessity is the mother of invention that's why I use Reaper from years of frustration with Biab/RB I was forced to it, as I can script something the same day to do what I need, so the sooner I get the tracks out of Biab the more control I have. Studio One NEEDS to openly release all the scripting info rather than having to have CIA clearance to access it. I was having issues with Biab not being able to change loops at any bar in the past so I made a script to do it in Reaper:
