I've noticed with several of the guitar styles I've worked with since upgrading to the 2020 version of BIAB, quite a few of them render down with errors that prevent them from being imported into my DAW. At first I thought the DAW was being dumb, so I opened the rendered guitar tracks in Foobar 2000 (which I use for just listening to music), and they play fine, but if I attempt to convert it to another format (wav to aiff, for example) and I get an error message saying that the wav file is trunkated and has an error. It's that trunkated bounce from BIAB that prevents it from importing into the DAW. The latest examples are guitar 2525 and 2618 in the beatbx2 style. You can also tell because when you go to render them maunally (drag the "Guitar" button at the top into the 'drop' section, they take notably longer to render than other tracks... and they still won't import into a DAW.
Anyone else having this problem with BIAB 2020?
Edit: Turns out the bass from this is doing the same thing. So only three of the six tracks in this style are exporting without trunkating. I'm rendering at 24/48.

Here's the actual error report I get when I attempt to convert the rendered guitar track from a WAV to an AIFF file in Foobar (this is testing with a short sample track):
"1 out of 1 tracks converted with minor problems.
Source: "D:\Cakewalk Projects\Song\_Render_RealTrack_Guitar 1.WAV" Indicated RIFF size exceeds actual file size, file appears to be truncated Malformed or truncated chunk found at 36 bytes, claimed length 0 bytes, truncated to 4755963 bytes"

We can duplicate this problem with 'mono' track renders of specific length and sample rate. This will be fixed in the next build.

Hey Andrew,
Downloaded the new patch, and I'm still getting truncated audio files. Specifically #1956 alto sax soloist. I'm sure there will be others as well, if this one is still doing it. Just wanted to let you know it's still happening.

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."
