I run standalone with BIAB standalone.
Because a lot of DAW spaces are just playing.
So when I go to play the DAW with space, the BIAB standalone also starts playing.
How can I cancel the space bar to control the BIAB standalone version to start playing?
The spacebar should only be sent to the Active window, this is how it's working for me.

Yes, but I trigger it quite often.

I don't think you understand. If BiaB is the currently active form, and it has an event handler to process a space-bar press event (it has), then if BiaB is the currently active form and you press the space-bar, then the specific event handler is triggered by BiaB.

When you press the space-bar, whichever program is receiving the windows input messages will receive that event.

Can you follow?
This will prevent spacebar being sent to the BIAB Plugin Standalone
but allow it to other applications.

Install https://www.autohotkey.com/
The script will run in the System Tray green icon "H"

Save As "Disable spacebar Biab Standalone.ahk"
Code:
#SingleInstance force

SetTitleMatchMode, 3

#IfWinActive, Band-in-a-Box DAW Plugin Standalone
