Are you using a sync stripe to keep it in time?
How is the sync set up?
If not using sync stripe, tape stretch and wear will cause it to go out of time over the length of a song

I can hear ya fine ..
Have you tried running it the other way, with PT being master and the multitrack as the slave?
There are a few options in MIDI OUT dialogue that may help with the syncing that way, such as SPP
Make sure to enable 'send mtc' there if that is what you are using.

PowerTracks will sync with MTC or MIDI clocks, but any audio tracks in PT are unlikely to stay in sync with an analog tape recorder. Once the sync is achieved, audio in PT plays at its own speed rather than being adjusted. To do that would require stretching or expanding the audio in realtime repeatedly to keep in sync with the analog deck and there are no plans to support that type of sync.
The best thing would be to transfer all the analog tracks over to PT. After all the tracks are in PT, you could always manually move events around to get them in sync with MIDI, or maybe use ACW to create a tempo map in PT.

Jeff
I hear his fostex is digital. (up a couple posts)
teapot
The part Jeff mentioned about getting all the tracks into PT is a good suggestion.
Wonder if they were done with two different clicks (one from each system)?
Maybe the metronomes did't match between the two and now the audio is wandering.
Getting the audio tracks from Fostex into PT: Can the Fostex export?
Did you ever try running with PT as master and Fostex as slave?
Lastly, what version of PT?

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
