I have to say the the jbridge implementation is somewhat lacking. I have a great drum kit that is a 64 bit plugin and it is constantly locking me up. It's so bad that I don't even use it anymore, and I miss it. Anybody have any tips they can offer, something that I may be doing wrong? I mean, I don't know what I could do different. I load the plugin, jbridge launches to accommodate it, and when I try to close the program, jbridge locks the program up.

I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

1. How much did you make in 2023?

Eddie,

I'm sure you've covered all the bases but my response may help others.

Have you reviewed the +++ HOW To USE JBRIDGE - A DETAILED WALKTHROUGH +++ installation instructions?

Have you looked at the jBridge troubleshooting tips +++ HERE +++ ?

Are you using v1.75 of jBridge? You can check by double clicking on the exe file and looking at the top left of the utility window.

Finally, have you tried contacting the jBridge +++ DEVELOPER +++ ?

What specific plugin are you having trouble with? Perhaps someone else in the forum has the plugin and has figured out a solution.

What is the plugin, and what version of RB are you running?

About a year ago RB added the feature of sending a certain real time data to some drum plugins that use it.
Wondering if this plugin uses it, and if it is, is it something JBridge may have trouble converting (if you have a recent enough version of RB to be sending it in the first place).

Knowing these two things (plugin name and RB version) would help.

Hi Eddie,

Is there an error message that indicates that JBridge is locking RealBand up? If so, what are the exact words?

Thanks

The plugin is Cakewalk's Session Drummer 3. There is no error specific to the plugin, just "Real Band has stopped responding". The screen just goes into the pale ghost thing and I have to task manager my way out of it. So I just don't use the plugin. Which is sad because it's a sweet drum plugin.

I am running 2019 (3).

I should note that the plugin itself works while it is loaded and selected. It's when I try to close it or move off the screen of the plugin that my screen ghosts out and I crash.

That seems like it may be some sort of ownership or permissions problem and something is trying to write or update when you leave the task .(no permission cant write Hangs)
Are you running as administrator (sorry for same old question)

<sigh>

Of course I am.

Did you read the whole post? It works fine and crashed when I am CLOSING it. What am I "writing" when closing a plugin?

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.

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."
