Thanks Mike for your help. It seems your tip worked. I need to test it further but cannot do so now. I did get an instance of the Realdrums not clashing anymore but they were muffled.

OK 1. ST4 is 64 bit only 2. ST4 LEARN works in 64-bit BIAB 3. ST 4 LEARN TRIES to show up in 32-bit BIAB (if you right click on a ST 4 control like volume slider you can see it blinking into and out of "existence") 4. ST4 behavior in Realband, remember RB is ONLY 32-bit, behaves exactly the same as it does in 32-bit BIAB there is clearly an issue between the 32-bit app (BIAB and RB) using JBridge and communication with 64 bit ST4's. May or may not be JBridge communications iss

suggest for safety while its working you save it under another name just in case. then try opening both files - the old one and the renamed one. if the error persists on the old one but not the new one, continue with the new one. no idea what has caused it but better to use a file with no problems than persist with one that might deteriorate further. mind you shutting down the pc and restarting might get rid of the error!

Will, nice piece, my kind of music. Only observation if I may is that however nice the bass walk is I think sometimes it sounded a little long with just the bass and piano comping. Other than that I liked it. I'm not particularly fan of many styles or genres played in this forum but when is done well (which is most of the cases) I have to comment favorably. It's only fair. Well done. Mike B.

Lovers of MuseScore, and I think we have a lot of users here grit your teeth, watch WHOLE thing, the end might surprise you. No Animal was harmed doing the making of these video's (and will probably be improved because of it). I think Finale's and Dorico's "turn in the barrel" is coming up.

This is a sweet internal sound card. Suggested Retail is about $249 US. Nice to see there are sound card options besides Creative. I like Creative but competition makes everyone better. +++ Review Link +++ +++ Manufacturer Product Link 01 +++ & +++ Manufacturer Product Link 02 +++

Stefan, I THINK you will need to use SampleTank 3 on another MIDI channel beside the THRU channel. The idea of the Band-in-a-Box THRU channel is to provide MIDI a pathway outside Band-in-a-Box and the computer box. The intent is to use MIDI to control (external) devices like sound modules or effects pedals that reside outside the computer.

Then consider each cell can equal 1/2 a musical division or 1/2

Top Drawer FJ! Love the melody and chord progression, killer drum sound right in the sweet spot - along with everything else in their sweet spots. Terrific vocals. I could gush on and on but I think it's clear I love it. I'd give it two hearts if I could. I think this is really one of your best songs.

Nicely done epic... Mixing Shakespearean type lyrics with pop lyrics &... Giving it a modern musical bed upon which to lay... This tune could stand-alone or be a part of a theatrical production... I enjoyed hearing your composition.

I hadn't heard this style before, but I like it. It works well with the lyrics and your vocal delivery. I like your lyrics on this, especially the last three lines.

Band-in-a-Box VST and Pro Tools/AAX DAW Plugin (Windows)

Not exactly 'new'. I've been around since at least BIAB 2010 and this thread has been particularly about the VST plugin, which has only been in existence this year. So I'm afraid that I don't really understand why you are complaining here not elsewhere?

Thanks rharv, that is exactly what I am talking about. I have to "save group" and then recall that each time, I can't figure out for the life of me why it won't save instruments. The Aria board comes back up upon reload, but the instruments are not there. The board is blank. Guess I will call tech support. Thanks!

Learn More About the Redesigned Band-in-a-Box® SongPicker!
Wow - how much do you LOVE the redesigned SongPicker in Band-in-a-Box® 2019?!
The SongPicker within Band-in-a-Box® accesses the folder of your choosing for easy opening of all your favorite songs, or song files purchased from a third party or shared by a friend, member of your band, etc.
Now, with this redesigned feature, you can view the chord progression for your selected song without having to open it in Band-in-a-Box® and can copy the information from this window right into a TXT file!
The new progress bar is a great visual aid when you're updating the folder - for instance, if you load the ENTIRE Band-in-a-Box® folder, that's over 15,000 songs - and it's nice to see the progress/confirmation on screen. Not that you'll be waiting long - since the SongPicker now builds lists faster!
Plus, there's so many filters added - searching for the song you want has never been easier!
