I just tested the plugin with a 32 bar song with 3 choruses and it generated a multiriff smoothly.

Only one problem is it locked up again when I tried to generate an extra track

The above was in Studio One 4

I just tried Cakewalk by Bandlab and it is acting up. It fails to generate the last instrument and has Black and white ! Icons on the melody and soloist tracks tried two separate styles both with 5 instruments

Will try a 4 instrument style later today

Hi RobH, Can you provide a bit more detail about exactly what you are doing, and what the results are? Typically, a Melody or Soloist track will only be generated if you open a saved Band-in-a-Box song that contains a melody/soloist. Selecting a style will not include a melody or soloist unless they are part of that style. Any more information you can provide about your issue would be great in helping me determine what exactly is going on. Your feedback is always appreciated, thank you!

Hey Adar, what mean is sometimes when I generate tracks from a style in the VSTi plugin, I get a small black square icon with what looks like a capital i in front of the melody and soloist tracks. Also when I want to add another track like say an additional instrument the screen won’t let me access the open tracks between the BiaB tracks and the Multiriff tracks so must click on either the melody or soloist tracks and generate. Oddly it does enter the RT on a separate track that I can then access to right click and generate.

This will generate in Reaper with a long render time, sometimes (50%) in Studio one, and totally lock up Cakewalk.

I hope that helps if you need more info feel free to post, email, or call tomorrow sometime.

That definitely helps me understand your problem a bit better, thank you! Can you reproduce this error? It sounds like it might be to do with the style that is being selected. Which style is causing the error? In regards to adding another track, if you cannot access second page which contains all the Special Tracks, it is likely that the selection itself did not work. Again I would ask, is there a specific track that you are trying to select which causes this issue? Can you reproduce this? If you can provide me with the exact steps you are taking and tracks you are using, then I can try to recreate the problem on my computer and fix the issues that come up. Much appreciated!
