My Motu4 is an external USB. Not certain but a lot of people believe that having two sampling rates causes the cracks that I heard.

Thanks for the added information, Jeff. Appreciate it. I saw the beta test for Synth V 2.2 but decided not to take part in it. In hindsight, and in light of your comments, that sounds like it might have been a blessing in disguise smile

Re: Billionaire TuneMonger 3 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
I read the comments before listening, which made me think I might not like this. But everything about it worked fine for me. I think you mixed it well and that is why it works. Your song had a lot of energy and attitude and that was very appealing to me. Whenever a songwriter chooses a political topic, there are bound to be some prosody issues. But you did a good job and there were only a few awkward phrases. Of course I am in alliance with the subject matter, I feel so badly for young people struggling in this new world economy. If you don't have the kind of skills that command a high salary, you are screwed. If the economic disparity gets any worse, there will be major protests in the streets, I think. We'll see.

GOODBYE Torrey Bliss 3 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Soundcloud link GOODBYE Bandcamp link GOODBYE I know it's a title that's been overused and probably used several times in this forum. I've had this one in my back pocket for a while but have been reluctant to share because I've only got one BIAB track involved. Nevertheless, I decided to share because of the amount of work that has gone into producing it! This one was inspired by my co-writer Ron Helm's past work as a hospice chaplain and in particular individuals he has ministered to who strongly emphasized that they didn't want their loved ones worrying about them because they were ready for what lay ahead of them! I played all instruments with the exception of the BIAB Cajon Folk Slow 8's Realdrums track which was used in the verses and first and second chorus I also used Drums On Demand and EZ Keys for the main electric piano track I still have work to do on the vocal effects and some mixing. Ron and I are both so appreciative of your time to listen and comment! Goodbye Torrey Bliss/Ron Helm ©2025 Glass Gate Music BMI The sadness fades As you start a brand new day The sunrise comes and it takes you away I know that time is sleeping And slipping away Our last breath here Will be our first breath there Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright I'll wait there for you Where we'll walk in the light Now and then Sometimes you will think of me I'll show up in ways That only you can see Though time slips away You'll still see reflections of me Look up believe that Jesus Is The One we'll see Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright I'll wait there for you Where we'll walk in the light It may seem you're near the end of the road Just know it's not the end We're not walking alone The Lord is taking you to A place that we cannot comprehend Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright I'll wait there for you Where we'll walk in the light

Wow, Laurent, what a production! Everything about this was top shelf! I couldn't follow what you said about Suno and MIDI, but the results speak for themselves. This looks like something Brazil Touristry would produce. Super job!

Re: TONALISCS ESSENTIAL RELEASE TODAY DrDan 4 hours ago Forum: Off-Topic
I have been using the Arranger version in Reaper for a couple days. No ARA2, but the VST works well. I had some really troubles but it was just me trying to go to fast. It highly resembles toontrack EZ products. For me the trickey part was working with tempo maps to synch the Tonalics with my audio tracks in current projects. It you do that wrong -strange things happen which you will swear is a bug. Good news is when you figure that part out, and there is (Tempo/timing video) - all goes very well.

Yes, agreed. Make this an integrated option as part of the RTFS. Sending users into folders and asking then to manually delete / move / rename files does present some risks

Re: error on demo song that references "FolkPopSlow16thsBrushes" [fixed with patch build 1224] Chris Heinen Yesterday at 10:29 PM Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Current status... I downloaded BIAB patch build 1224 today and installed it. I looked in the folder R:\bb\Drums\FolkPopSlow16thsBrushes and found the text file FolkPopSlow16thsBrushes_60_style.txt which had been missing from this folder prior to the patch. I retested the problem I was having and the demo song now successfully generates the drum part with no errors. I updated the thread title to reflect this testing.

Re: Credit where credit is due. Rustyspoon# Yesterday at 05:18 PM Forum: Band-in-a-Box for Windows Jump to new postsJump to new posts
"but I feel things might be finally moving in the right direction." Lee, you are tough one to please, but I am glad you've appreciated real progress that was made! I will repeat bits of what I've said in another thread: It's great that finally we have VST3, options for Chord Track, single Library and a good progress was made on UI. However, now is the right time for PGM to tighten up a lot of things that relate to workflow. Complete unfinished features, consistency of navigation, zoom, transport, cursor, known bugs etc. So BIAB becomes a fully modular piece of composing software that feels premium. The most productive leap since I started using BIAB was 2025, when PGM created and curated several pinned topics on UI in wishlist. They made known that they are open to particular change, gathered focused opinions and it turned out better than expected. Vast majority of people liked new UI. I feel that rather than just throwing ideas into wishlist well, PGM has to step up and set the tone for 2027 release, just as it did in 2025 (for 2026).
