Hello,

I just bought Band in a Box 2025 and installed it on my Dell XPS 18 PC with Windows 10 which is connected to my Clavinova CVP 307 piano which serves as both a master keyboard and a MIDI expander.

After working on the same installation with Band-in-a-Box 2020 without (almost) any problems for 5 years, I am now experiencing a serious problem with Band in a Box 2025: Band in a box works normally when I start a song, but as soon as I start playing on my piano with MIDI In enabled, it starts to stutter, stop, resume, re-stutter, etc.

Since everything worked fine with my previous versions of Band in a Box (2006, 2008, 2010, 2015 and 2020), I first thought that the problem came exclusively from the 2025 version of Band in a Box.

But the situation is probably more complicated, because I also tried by connecting my PC with Band-in-a-Box 2025 to a Yamaha P45 piano, and there, Band in a box worked perfectly even when I played on my piano and recorded myself in MIDI!

I deduce that the problem comes from the relationship between Band-in-a-Box 2025 and my Clavinova CVP 307: a file or a setting of Band-in-a-Box 2025 that would not work with my CVP 307? It is true that my CVP 307 is a rather old machine (it was released in 2004).

On the other hand, this is not a problem specifically related to Windows 10 because I tested my version 2025 of Band in a Box with a PC using Windows 11 connected to my Clavinova CVP 307 and I have the same problem when I play with MIDI In.

Do you know if other users have encountered a similar problem? Do you have any idea what can happen?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
