<< An item for the Wishlist section maybe?>> No. JAOM suggests four elements to process. BIAB does all four without any bugs, missing components, or steps to sync imported audio with BIAB generated tracks. Posted in the BIAB for Windows rather than the Wishlist thread, these suggestions seem to be more from frustration, which is certainly reasonable, with OM spending hours without success. There's nothing needing simplification in the Stem Splitter process. The process was updated in 2026 and now has little popup explanations throughout. It is a straightforward process. Looking specifically to what OM was attempting; songs he's done in commercial Studios and splitting them out to stems and syncing them to RealTracks, I think he may have better and faster success doing this in RealBand. RB has an easy and manual click track feature that should work on his commercially created songs, recorded with or without a click track. It's simpler and more intuitive than using the BIAB ACW. The RB ACW may be more familiar and simple than the BIAB ACW if he decides it's necessary to use it. RB has the same stem splitter program and all of BIAB's RealTracks are accessible. It would also be helpful to him and the forum in general, to post the how, why and what processes and techniques he spent hours on so many eyes can analyze and help streamline the process in a discussion in this thread.

My projects for the past few years have involve a lot of "cover tunes". The challenge to mock up a cover tune backing is to be able to sync different audio and midi tracks. I often need to create a tempo map to get all the tracks to play together. More often than not, this is not possible due to varible tempo's. Tonalics has a very effective way to prepare guitar backing audio which can be syched. Just hit the "learn Tempo" button, play the song in its entirety, then the resulting guitar tonalics will play to the groove. It worked perfect for me with a current project. I have a video. I don't want to become "that guy with the goofy videos". So PM me if you want to see it.

Hi Peter, Thanks for sharing these TTS-1 troubleshooting steps. As a member of both this forum and the Cakewalk forum I don't recall ever seeing such a concise but complete list in one post. Did you compile the list from one source? If so do you have a link to the original post?

I am not sure that I have counted them correctly (quite few) or if there are more to download. I just downloaded once. I found no other way to count them than to select all and go down to the bottom of the list to see how many items there are.(guitar & bass).- I got the ARA version to work fine in StudioPro. But it also comes upp as a VST3 plugin Toliac ARA. But I can not get that one to work I tried to drag it into a track as other VST3s. But the ARA seems to work fine. I wonder if access to the content in the Arranger version also end with the end of the subscription (it would be nice if it was kept and could be used with the Essential, but I gous that is not the case).

Hi Ron, Great song! Love the guitars. Also really like your vocal, especially the BGVs. Not so mad about the drums, too busy for my tastes. But yeah, great way to kick off 2026! Thanks, Dave. Yeah, those drums seems to be divisive, though I've decided I like them in this song. Glad you enjoyed the tune! This is my first visit to the User Showcase in a while and my first song to listen to. It's quite impressive. Overall everything is glued together in the mix, good lyrics and an admiral vocal and background production. I like your first resolution and the fact you relied on the power of the Style unmodified. Enjoyed my listen. Charlie Whew! Glad I didn't wreck your Showcase forum revisit experience.  Welcome back! 100% of our songs start with a RealStyle (or MIDIstyle), and probably 90% will only use the instruments in that style. I know a lot of folks augment BiaB with different drums, pianos, guitars, etc, and their stuff sounds great. But I can usually get the textures I'm looking for by manipulating a single style, especially if there are more than four instruments in the style.

What a great extemporaneous band! Reminds us of our bluegrass parking lot pickings when sometimes it just all fell together in the good way. Great instrumental performances by you and a cool vocal. Lotta fun! J&B Thanx Janice and Bud, I'm glad you liked it.

Andrew - thanks for posting the pics. As I'm sure you've realized...the Live Rig is a standalone Desktop app - so you can play without having to call up a DAW. Everything else can be used in your DAW like any other effect....

Andrew, You definitely achieved a "heavy" sound here and it sounds great to me! Very clever lyric writing! My favorite part of the song is the chorus section which uses a wonderful melodic structure supported by the perfect sync basslines and guitars moving around it all! Great song! Well done! TB

Ha! Funny and fantastic tune, Floyd. Love the write. Story songs with a twist are the best. Super lead vocals: Strong and expressive with just a touch of playfulness. Love how the harmonies are panned. Super band, too. Those guitar fills are especially nice. BiaB has some similar fills that are technically just as nice, but Rodney's are of course by a musician who's hearing and playing to the song. Very cool. The BiaB remnants hold their own and fit right in. Nice job with the mix. A lot of entertaining musical detail to be heard, and it's all perfectly available for the listener. A song worthy of the re-mix for sure. Can see why this is a favorite. Same for me! Much appreciated, Ron... GREAT song, love the energy. Lyrics were terrific - what a storyline! Fantastic vocals as always. Perfect package. Thanks, Rob....

Dave, you have done a masterful job with this arrangement! It definitely has a Santana vibe which is always a good thing! Your guitar fills and lead parts are as always, top shelf! I'm assuming you are using a Strat here and it sounds wonderful! Chris has such a beautiful voice that is the very definition of pro!! Enjoyed it! Take care, TB

Dp. 1.. why do you need to run two different sampling rates. ?? What are you trying to do. 2.. it doesn't matter how fancy or powerful or how much somebody's spent on a new computer.... most will need optimization in order to run a music production Studio. The mistake a lot of people make is to buy any old computer without assessing their music production needs for example track counts plug-ins etc etc I've seen these problems often over the years. 3.. another big problem I've seen over the years is people trying to run everything but the kitchen sink on one PC. particularly the net can cause problems and issues.. So I run two PCs one for the net and one for music production. For more information please read my thread how to acquire a PC for music production in the PG tips forum. Happiness Om

Yes this is recent behavior - I would say it introduced in 2026. Along the lines of making every track the same? But it does have some negative reprocusions. Having you tried to freeze the Audio track so it can't be changed?

G'day Dave Welcome to the Showcase. Your musical pedigree sure gives your mob a heap of street cred. I very much enjoyed the music and images of all 4 of your videos. I loved the images of the 3 sisters and the Blue Mountains vista. Also when I was a young fella I used to ride my Honda Goldwing on many road trips up and down the New England Hwy from Sydney to Tamworth. Great days and memories which your vids sparked. A tribute to Max's late wife is a nice touch. There is quite a large 🦘 mafia on this showcase so y'all should feel right at home 😊 ɹǝpunuʍoᗡ ʎzzI

One of Julie's about a mother setting her daughter free into the wide & wild world. In mid 2025 we had a family holiday to celebrate my wife's 70th and this came up on the sound system by the pool, a couple of Scandinavian backpackers behind the bar had it in their Spotify playlist (weird) BIAB drums & strings, Max and I on guitars and bass Fly Pretty Little Bird

I'd always wanted to write a song in Dm (the saddest of all keys) and put a basic backing together one night while having a beer and waiting for the footy to start, sent it off to Bob & Max to see what they might come up with and these are the words that Max wrote roughly six weeks after losing his wife of 51 years. Max & Bob on vocals and our mate Wes Grady on pedal steel, apart from the drums written in MIDI we play the rest, sorry no BIAB on this one Brown Bottle
