Lazy, I saw you pictures of the configuration of the keyboard and it is NOTHING like mine. I had asked you to attempt to reproduce my configuration. The reason why is because mine work perfect. I just tried to record midi from the keyborad and all worked as intended. I have two keyboards I (only 1 is presently on, so you do not see the other in my picture. If I set my configure similar to yours I get nothing! I would be glad to show you via a video, but it is so simple if you just set the buttons right as I show.
Maybe I don't know what you are trying to do. Both my keyboards are Midi Controllers and do not have their own sounds. That is what BIAB can handle. You are not trying to play your internal keyboard synth? As best I know, that won't work. BAIB routing is very simple. The keyboard is routed only to the "thru" track unless you record then it can be set to the melody or soloist tracts. You can not sent the midi into BIAB and sent the MIDI out to you keyboard. Again, best as I know. Fact is I never record in BIAB. I save that for the DAW
Hello DrDan,
It's normal that my configuration is not identical to yours, because my keyboard is a Clavinova CVP that produces its own sounds, and I use it both as a master keyboard AND as an expander.
That's why I don't check the VSTi/DXi synth option: with my Clavinova CVP, I don't need to use virtual instruments.
That being said, I still have the same problem when I check the VSTi/DXi option and use my virtual instruments (for example Garritan JABB 3): when I play on my keyboard with the MIDI Input Driver enabled, Band-in-a-Box stutters (stops, resumes, etc.).
But I'm sure that my MIDI/Audio Drivers Setup window setting is not the source of the problem: since 2013, I have used Band in a Box versions 2010, 2015 and 2020 with my CVP as a MIDI keyboard and as an expander and I have never encountered the problem that I have today with version 2025.
But maybe version 2025 of Band-in-a-box no longer handles MIDI inputs like previous versions, or it requires a more powerful PC configuration (I still have 8 GB of RAM!) or the Ultrapack version that I bought on HDD is corrupted ...
For now, I have no leads!
