BIAB 64 Bit - access to PG fx? - 12/03/18 07:26 PM
Hi all.
BIAB and Realband = great programs. Use them every day; have made a lot of music with them.
I have to say, however, as a not-terribly tech savvy musician I do find, at times, PG Music's approach to releases bordering on the amateur.
So, now I have a 64 bit version of BIAB but only a 32 bit version of Realband.
If I want to run the 64 bit version I have to hunt around for the exe file and set up my own shortcut on the desktop.
I flash the cash for the new realtracks and extra styles but find some of them don't have audition files yet.
And, most confusingly to me, while everyone goes wow the 64 bit BIAB can load 64 bit VSTs, there don't appear to be any version of the BIAB Native Plugin FX available to the 64 bit version.
I've only tried the VST BIAB plugin once, so far, in Reaper. On the face of it is sounds great but the operation - particularly how multiriffs are approached - feels enormously clumsy.
BIAB is like a terrible aunt who you love despite her being a total social nightmare.
I love it and hate it in equal proportions!!
Rant over
