Hi, I've just installed BIAB 2023 Ultrapak on my Windows 10 PC and everything seems to be working well so far.
I decided to test out the 64bit DAW vst plugin in Ableton Live 11 Intro but ran into a problem.
I added the VST to a new Midi track and it opened up the VST window but every time I try to load a style nothing gets added. i.e. not tracks in the plugin show up. I can play them in the Style window but when I click on "OK" to load them or click on Load Demo with style nothing loads.
I've watched the video showing how to use the plugin in Live but so far I still can't open up a style in the plugin.

The stand alone program is working.

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I just tested this out in Cubase with the same results. The BIAB VST plugin is 2023 V5.0.2

Thanks for the links I'll check them out. Wonder why I wasn't given them when I purchased this yesterday.

I used that link to update the software but the problem still exist's ;o(

EDIT: After deleting the VST and starting it again it's now started loading styles ;o)

Found out it won't Load chords from Midi file like it does in the main program.

Yes you need to use the main program for that, then you can just copy paste the chords into the VST Plugin. The VST Plugin will only import the chords in midi as markers.

I put in a request here for improvements:
