Hi Frankie,
Can you explain in more detail what you mean by "drag"? We need some more information so that we can understand what you are experiencing. Also, are you playing a keyboard or MIDI controller through BIAB?
Regards,
Noel

What driver are you using? Is it an ASIO driver and is that where you adjusted the latency settings? This sounds like a buffering issue maybe?

It is normal with some sound cards to lower latency when recording and raise it back on playback. Yes, is this an ASIO driver?
And just to be clear, we are talking about playing back a BIAB song IN BIAB, correct?

Breakup is caused by too small an audio buffer so increase by say 50 at a time. Latency is audio being out of sync with midi is caused by buffer size and round trip time in and out. To sum up : The larger the buffer the less the stutter and break up . but the greater the Lateny And visa versa. See this thread here. On break up and check your synth settings for buffer size. https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=75936&Number=530019#Post530019Mike PS By the way the latency settings in BIAB only effect the visual display that you see in notation and chord sheet to make them appear in step . They do not alter the round trip time in and out of your synth. The only way to do that is with buffer sizes or faster drivers like asio if you can. An external midi synth or module connected to the midi driver will have near enough Zero. Where as a virtual synth running in the the pc will req some buffer for when the pc is busy doing other things like running the program, and any external task (anti virus etc)

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."
