I searched to see if this had been reported before and did not find it...

When I double-click a RealTrack in the RT selection screen (in order to audition it - I tried several), I get:

OLE error C00D0FEB.

The audition works fine in the 32-bit version.

Suggestions?

Floyd,

Hi floyd,

I have Win 7 and build #610 installed. The double-click in RT Picker using BIAB64 worked for me.

In case it's useful information, this was the first thing I tried after starting BIAB this morning. I've noticed that sometimes problems arise after an application has been used for a while. I'll keep this in mind as I work on my latest song today and come back a check throughout the day.

Happy New Year!
Noel

OLE errors have to do with windows, run CMD as administrator, then SFC.exe, preferably in safe mode ....

OLE is an abbreviation for Object Linking and Embedding. Many programs can use OLE, similar to COM (Component Object Model) and more recently ActiveX controls to communicate.

COM is not necessarily directly connected to Windows, but can be.

So, I guess no one else is experiencing this problem...??

Upgraded to 610 - no change.

It affects all auditioning in the 64-bit version. I cannot audition RealTracks (in RT picker) or RealDrums (in RD picker) or Styles (in Style Picker).

It is NOT a problem in the 32-bit version. Would they be using different system components to play (audition) those thing in the 32-bit BIAB vs. the 64-bit BIAB???

FJ, I have no similar issue with BB64 V308. All "auditions" with a double click or hitting the play button.

BTW, When I started BB64 v308 I first R-clicked on icon and hit "run as administrator".

I am bumping this in hopes of ideas to resolve it?
Or someone from development chiming in?


Upgraded to 611 - no change.

Without a fix to this, I simply cannot use the 64-bit version (not that I ever cared about that... but, still...)

OLE refers to Object Linking and Embedding, which is part of Windows that allows applications to send files to each other. We use OLE to play RealTrack and Style audio demos through Media Player.

Floyd, do you have Media Player installed, and if so, is it working and able to play audio? If Media Player is missing or somehow broken, that might explain the error.

Thanks

Media Player is installed - and works.

Does it make sense that the audition functions work in the 32-bit program, but do not in the 64-bit program? Do they use different functions?

Very annoying when an error like this persists.

I think if it was me and I couldn't get to the root of the problem, I would make sure that I had a drive image of the OS, with Acronis or Macrium Reflect, then download an ISO of windows burn to DVD, and try a reinstall over itself, to see if that may help. Using the option to keep existing programs and files.

I appreciate the suggestion. However... considering this is the only program that seems to have this problem, that solution seems like a whole bunch of work - like rebuilding the whole car because the window crank is broken... and since I don't normally drive with the window down.........

Floyd " driving with the windows down" sounds like song number 126 to me. Anyway the audition works great here. there has got to be some small reason for this on your end. what drivers are you using? is anything else open that requires sound card usage?

When using the VSTi plugin I could not get audition to work in Studio one, it worked in reaper and Cakewalk and it turned out to be a audio sharing option. what about wave players, sound card options etc anything that might block sharing?

A good suggestion, Rob. I usually have Studio One open... I closed it (and everything else). Still get the error.

floyd,

Out of curiosity, have you tried "Options | Reset to factory settings"? I find that this is often a useful tool when BIAB stops doing things that it used to.

Another thought...

The "Band (on dbl click)" option in RT Picker allows doubleclick to select the solo RT (if the option is de-selected) and the RT with a band (if the option is selected). I know that you are aware of this.

What I've sometimes found is that it is occasionally useful to give some settings a bit of a nudge. For example, what I'd do if this was happening to me would be...

1. If the 'Band(on dbl click)' is active, de-select it -- or vice versa

2. exit RT picker

3. exit BIAB (so that preference files are update with new choice)

4. restart BIAB

5. go back into RT picker and return the Band (on dbl click) setting to its original setting

Regards,
Noel

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."
