BIAB 2014 heavy reverb on playback #232950 01/04/14 02:36 PM Band-in-a-Box for Windows

OP Tom Leparskas Enthusiast T Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 72 Windsor,Ontario,Canada	First thread is REVERB. Just installed 2014 and playback is super heavy reverb - compared to 2013 that I was just using this morning. Can't see where the reverb might be so high - it's on all audio in BIAB. Any quick thoughts? Thanks, Tom in Ontario

Second, make sure there isn't a DX or VST reverb plugin active in there. Might be good to try Return to Factory Settings in the Options window, even though its a new install. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com

Is this happening on all tracks or just one or a few particular ones? You weren't using Direct Input tracks before, were you? In version 2014, we have the new mixer, and the reverb controls are a little different. I assume you looked at that first? Do you use one of those soundcards with global reverb, like the EAX controls on the old Soundblasters? BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile.

Knocked back to zero. I did do a factory reset - but my ASIO driver is now really screwed up and just getting broken crackle in playback with a simple song - one realdrums part. Tom

All reverb settings are 0.0 - and use EAX is not checked on. The big issue just became the driver. I'm going to re-boot and see what's up. Thanks, Tom

In some few cases, also may need to Reboot the computer, say an older one with XP and less than 2g of ram. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com

It's a Win 7 machine with 8gig RAM and an Intel i7 core CPU (first gen.) I have some real work to do right now - so I can't troubleshoot right away. Don't want to crash over and over right now. Will try later this PM. All system sounds are fine - I can record/playback voice with mic into Adobe Audition perfectly. Thanks Tom

Is it at the Drive top level \bb\ folder, or somewhere in \Program Files\ ?

When clicking on an instrument in the mixer to change it this access error pops up: "Access violation at address 00BE2C63 in module 'bbw.exe' Read of address 000001B0 at: 00BE2C63". I might re-install. Tom

The lousy sound I discovered is from MIDI tracks. I had ForteDXI installed but looks like it stopped working (did I buy it a few years ago? I think so, but can't find registration) Anyway, I bought a new version to hopefully fix the MIDI sounds. Realtracks appear to play - and sound good. I also upgraded my ASIO driver to a newer version. We're good to go. Thanks for all the help. Even though I've used BIAB for over 10 years - this was the most difficult upgrade yet. Tom

I did go and get 380 after you mentioned there was a new version. Why don't they have the newest version when you purchase - looks like 380 has been available since Dec? Anyway - got the new Forte registration key and things are sounding good now. Just a one crash today Tom

There may be further patches in the future, and these are easy to apply. So it saves users having to go into an extended download option, just Install the baseline, then apply any updates if available.

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!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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.
